what changed for me between week 5 and week 54

The correlation is weaker than I expected, which is itself mildly interesting given how confidently people link the two in here. Caveats up front: one person, one lab, one…

About c/compounding

Compounded GLP-1s as a supply route: the 503A/503B distinction, the shortage-list mechanics that made compounding legal and then didn't, state board rules, telehealth prescriber models, and what a compounding pharmacy will and will not tell you about its API source.

c/compounding rules

Regulatory claims need a citation to the actual rule, notice or docket.
No pharmacy referral codes. Naming a pharmacy is fine; recruiting for it is not.
API source questions are on-topic and pharmacies dodging them is newsworthy.
Independent community. Nobody here sells anything, and anyone who tries is banned.
Not medical advice. Describe what you did; never prescribe to a stranger.
Claims need evidence. Batch numbers, dated screenshots, independent test reports, or a citation.
No referral links, discount codes or affiliate URLs. Permanent ban, no appeal.
No contact handles, wallet addresses or tracking numbers — they identify people.
Be recognisably decent. Disagree hard, insult nobody.

Before you read on

Several compounds discussed on GLP Research Hub are sold for research use only and are not approved for human use anywhere. Nothing here is medical advice and none of it is written by your clinician. If a post reads like an instruction, treat it as a description of what one stranger did.
