is it normal to get constipation at week 44

Discussion

Something I noticed reading old threads that I have not seen said out loud.

The advice on New Zealand in this community changed substantially around the start of last year, and nobody went back and updated the older posts. So depending on which thread the search engine hands you, you get two contradictory answers with the same confidence.

I have listed what I think the current consensus is below. Correct me — that is the point of posting it.

Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.

The practical rule people converge on is 28 days at fridge temperature after first puncture, and that comes from the preservative, not the peptide.

Three years on this site and the questions have not changed at all. Which is depressing or reassuring depending on the day.

unfunded-means-full-price is the NZ reality

Strongly agree. AU and NZ differ.

This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.

Yeah, the 2024 rule change was sudden.

This is correct. PBS listings matter.

Slight fix: the number was 97.6, not 97.4. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.

AU or NZ?
