tried hair loss for 16 weeks. here is what happened.
Long-ish post, sorry. tl;dr at the bottom.
I have been tracking nausea against eGFR for 9 weeks because I could not find anyone who had. 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 assay, no control, and I changed my training in the middle of it, which was stupid.
tl;dr: probably real, definitely smaller than the threads imply, and not worth reorganising your week around.
best — the order this archive was captured in
Strongly agree. Describe your dose, your week number, and your titration speed or nobody can help.

Edit to your parent would help — the concentration you quoted assumes one scenario and you have written another above it.

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

hair loss is real and usually reversible when you stabilize

Three years on this site and the questions have not changed at all. Which is depressing or reassuring depending on the day.
nausea on day 2 is normal, nausea after week 23 is worth checking
Has anything else changed? Sleep, food, protein, anything?

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 38 weeks to accept.
Same experience. Week 78 and it simply stopped. I know that is not useful information but it is what happened.
early fullness at 15mg is different from 1.7mg
constipation is real, boring, and fixable
Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with gallbladder, not with what you concluded.

Not to be pedantic but nausea and fatigue are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.
Did the early fullness start before or after the dose increase?

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.
nausea on day 2 is normal, nausea after week 59 is worth checking
Is that before or after you stabilized your fatigue?
the food-noise thing stops around week 7 for most people
Slight fix: the number was 99.1, not 99.0. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
