help me understand 2.4mg, I have read the wiki twice
2.4mg. That is the whole post, but I will justify it.
Everything else people worry about in c/progresspics is downstream of it. Titration speed, reflux, the endless dose arguments — most of it resolves if you sort 2.4mg out first, and almost nobody does.

Did anything else change in the same window? Sleep, protein, steps, anything?
Retitled to remove editorialising. Put the evidence in the body.
Are you on a pen or research vial? Because the trajectory is different.
New Zealand here. Waited 18 months on an NHS list, gave up, went private, and the cost was half what I expected but the admin was worse.
The practical rule people converge on is 28 days at fridge temperature after first puncture, and that comes from the preservative, not the peptide.
Kept a public log for 10 weeks. The comments are what kept it going, honestly. Accountability from strangers works.
