comment on LC-MS: the version I wish someone had shown me in week 1 in c/hplc · 436 points · 10 months ago
The related substances profile is way more interesting than the main peak %. A 98% with 8 peaks is different from a 98% that is one 8% impurity.
comment on week 11 check-in — 31kg down, muscle cramps manageable, one thing confusing me in c/retatrutide · 82 points · 11 months ago
the weight curves are unusually steep, which makes predicting individual response harder
comment on dead space: what the trials say vs what this community says in c/reconstitution · 15 points · 11 months ago
Yeah, showing the arithmetic is the fastest way for someone to spot the error.
comment on [Results] 61 weeks on 1.7mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring in c/compounding · 81 points · 11 months ago
Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.

confirmations are gas fees, the exchange rate at 19 blocks is the deal
comment on stalled for 18 weeks at 2.4mg and I refuse to panic this time in c/retatrutide · 584 points · 1 year ago
the weight curves are unusually steep, which makes predicting individual response harder
comment on [Question] New Zealand — has anyone got a straight answer on insulin resistance in c/glp1women · 2 points · 1 year ago
Not to be pedantic but PCOS and fertility are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.
comment on [Question] New Zealand — has anyone got a straight answer on insulin resistance in c/glp1women · 30 points · 1 year ago
This is correct. PCOS is real.

My version of this: I was so worried about the injection that I put it off for eleven days. The injection is the easiest part.
comment on tried method development for 12 weeks. here is what happened. in c/hplc · 103 points · 1 year ago
axis labels included, always
comment on phase 2 — my 12-week log, condensed into one table in c/retatrutide · 32 points · 1 year ago

comment on unpopular opinion: cycle is massively overrated in c/glp1women · 12 points · 1 year ago
You have restated the marketing copy. What is the actual substance here.
comment on anyone else notice units kicking in around week 4 in c/reconstitution · 1 points · 1 year ago
Is that 15mg vial or 29mg?
comment on [Discussion] the 503A advice in here is 23 years out of date in c/compounding · 4 points · 1 year ago
Water content matters more than people think. If a vial is carrying residual moisture, your "10mg" is not 10mg of peptide.

stablecoin is escrow, never volatile coins
comment on [Results] 37 weeks, 16kg, and phase 2 was the hard part in c/retatrutide · 48 points · 1 year ago
Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.

dosing errors come from people reconstituting two vials differently and forgetting which is which

What was the dosing schedule in that arm?

TRIUMPH data is phase 2, not phase 3, smaller n and shorter
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
comment on what would you tell week-1 you about compounding in c/compounding · 175 points · 1 year ago
Crossposting this to c/maintenancephase because the people who need it are not reading this community.
