ranking: the version I wish someone had shown me in week 1

Appeal Clean Column ×6 Sourced ×2 The Quiet One ×1

Confession thread, sort of.

I went from 1.0mg to 15mg much faster than I should have because the scale had stalled and I got impatient. The stall broke about 22 weeks later, at which point I had no way of knowing whether the dose increase did anything or whether it would have broken anyway.

So now I have muscle cramps I did not need and a data point I cannot interpret. Two lessons in one.

Posting it in the hope that somebody at week 17 reads it before doing the same thing.

Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with meta, not with what you concluded.

Disagree.

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 41 weeks to accept.

Every time this gets posted it hits the front page and every time someone has to re-explain it.

You have restated the marketing copy. What is the actual substance here.

The constipation was genuinely awful for three weeks and then simply stopped. I know that is not useful information, but it is what happened.

Strongly agree. Transparency wins.

Adding to this: ranking is doing more work than the comment implies.

u/sanne_laurent30 points·2 years ago

No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.

u/hub_opsMOD23 points·2 years ago

Retitled to remove editorialising. Put the evidence in the body.

Yeah, the evidence standard works.

c/meta rules
  1. Moderation appeals go through modmail first; Meta is for policy, not individual cases.
  2. Rule-change proposals need a concrete wording suggestion.
  3. Sponsor and disclosure questions are always answered publicly.
  4. Independent community. Nobody here sells anything, and anyone who tries is banned.
  5. Not medical advice. Describe what you did; never prescribe to a stranger.
  6. Claims need evidence. Batch numbers, dated screenshots, independent test reports, or a citation.
  7. No referral links, discount codes or affiliate URLs. Permanent ban, no appeal.
  8. No contact handles, wallet addresses or tracking numbers — they identify people.
  9. Be recognisably decent. Disagree hard, insult nobody.
Moderators
Volunteers. Unpaid, unaffiliated, and reachable through modmail only.
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.
