Peptide quality?

[Ennya]

I feel that in the last few months, I've noticed a significant drop in quality. The Reta 10mg I bought last month doesn't compare to the Reta 5mg I bought five months ago. I feel the quality has fallen drastically. Has anyone else had this experience?

I'm betting it was a local street dealer.

Hmmm.

I'm lost here in a couple ways. I wish you could say who you bought this from. I'd love to take a peek.

I don't know if I can post this here. But I bought it from a seller in the "red country." The seller isn't on the forum; I didn't know about the forum before buying from this person.

No, I have not noticed any change in peptide quality over the past year.

Huh?

😂 Yea, it sounds crazy. But repeating the exact same spot can irritate the tissue and create scar tissue, little lumps/nodules, local inflammation, fat-pad changes/lipohypertrophy, etc. So the shot may sit in irritated/thickened tissue and absorb less predictably. It's better to rotate stomach/thigh sites >1 inch away from prior spot and avoid lumps/bruises/red areas.

Thanks Ai, so now it's 1 inch instead of 3 now?

There is a discussion going on in at least one vendor TG/discord about a faulty R30 Batch. People claim that pinning from this batch has 0 effect. Maybe its related to you observations or even a bigger issue with Reta atm

Guilty, but it seems to be true. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9153835/
Probably rare, but just something to be aware of.

These cutaneous complications could be one of the causes of unexplained blood glucose fluctuation as insulin absorption is impaired under these pathological conditions 7 , 8 .
