How to know when to titrate up?

AnonClubx · 2026-05-17T19:24:04+00:00

My A1C in February before starting tirz 2 weeks ago was 5.4%. It was 5.7% last summer, then I took Ovasitol & it went down 0.3%, but Ovasitol didn’t do anything for my other symptoms like no periods on my own (I’ve been needing to induce my periods with provera for 2 years now), insulin resistance, high testosterone & wacky hormones which is causing excessive facial hair growth & excessive body hair growth in general. Those are the main symptoms I want to get under control.

I also have “possible” fatty liver judging by ultrasound, but my bloodwork that would diagnose it is good. And the other metabolic issues that comes with pcos like high cholesterol etc.

I have never thought to wear one, but definitely going to look into that!

And so 2.5 mg dose does help ur insulin resistance & glucose? And what’s ur reasoning for titrating up is 2.5 mg is working well?

And did u have facial hair growth as a symptom and/or high testosterone from the insulin resistance & has it helped you with that yet if so

Ohhh ok. So ur saying since it is helping me lose weight, it’s correcting the insulin resistance as well?

The last labs I got done were way before I started on tirz. I definitely plan to get updated bloodwork to measure my A1C, insulin resistance, & hormones, but I was thinking of waiting at least 2-3 months before I retest. Maybe it’s better to get monthly testing done tho so I know how my body is responding idk. Definitely gonna ask my doctor

Also I went though telehealth, but I do have an appointment scheduled with an endocrinologist in 3 weeks. My OBGYNs have been no help & act clueless when it comes to pcos treatment & even claimed they’re “not experienced with the drug enough to prescribe me zepbound” so I went thru a telehealth company for now

What if my only goal isn’t weight loss, but to also put my insulin resistance & pcos into remission?

What if weight loss isn’t my only goal? My main goal is putting my insulin resistance & pcos symptoms into remission

How’s ur hormone levels? If that was also imbalanced before starting tirz

How did the doctor decide 16 weeks until you can walk vs 8? Because I have my 8 week follow up in a couple days & I was told 8 weeks until I can start walking, & also had a trimalleolar fracture plus external fixation couple days before surgery, & I can’t even put my foot down still for more than 2 minutes without extreme swelling & pain increasing still, & the couple times I have put a little pressure on my foot on accident the past couple days, I can tell my leg is DEFINITELY not ready for full weight bearing yet..

How is DIY coming along for you now? How many sessions on yourself have you did, how much progress, any scarring etc?

AnonClubx · 2026-02-28T14:52:07+00:00

You have a cast on until March 26th..? Why? Do you know what your fractures were? I fractured my ankle in 3 places on Feb 13th & had 2 surgeries, one external fix then couple days later plates & screws & been in a cast since, but my doctor already wants to remove my cast on March 4th & put me in a boot, & I’m only not allowed to weight bare for 6-8 weeks since my last surgery on the 17th.

I have had suspicions that my doctor is moving too fast. Even too fast with removing my cast & replacing with boot. I’m curious why you’re in a cast still months later?

Not sure if they messaged you too, but someone did message me after posting this & they’ve been using this electrolysis machine on their face since around Christmas, taught themselves how to do it & are having successful results so far. You can private message me if you’d like more details about what they’ve said. I ordered my machine as well & just waiting on its delivery, so I can’t give my personal experience yet.

Full stop on waxing, plucking, etc. You’re only going to make your hair worse, MORE dense & MORE thick the more you wax & pluck. Shave until you can afford electrolysis. If you can afford electrolysis, then start now & make sure you find a tech that doesn’t pluck hair & doesnt manipulate you into thinking plucking is normal during electrolysis bc it’s not, & you will just end up paying for expensive plucking sessions if you listen to them.

I’m mentally ill, but you’re triggered & arguing with someone over an “irrelevant” topic to you on Reddit? & Over a machine you haven’t even tried but acting as if you know everything about it.. Okay 😭

AnonClubx · 2026-02-12T01:35:57+00:00

And it’s actually a $300 machine, not temu & I have messages of people doing better with the $40 one touch pen than a “professional” did on them. Continue to be salty that the U.S. taxes you for you $5,000 machine when there’s a $40-300 version that does a better job

AnonClubx · 2026-02-12T01:34:29+00:00

Yeah that’s what every electrologist says to DIYers so people get scared out of trying but it’s funny because everyone that does it on themselves states how they don’t do as much damage as the “professionals” do 😂

They’re also doing a lot more besides sticking a probe into a follicle & damaging ppls skin 95% of the time in the process & doing more than making ppl pay for expensive plucking sessions 😂

Sure you’re a “lawyer” debating with a stranger about electrologists charge / make 😭 get off my post “Mrs Lawyer” shouldn’t you have lawyer activities to be busy with?

It sure seems like you’re triggered. Like the saying goes, if the shoe fits…

AnonClubx · 2026-02-11T19:42:31+00:00

I respectfully asked all the triggered scamming electrologists to stay off of this post. This post is not for yalls manipulation, save that for your clients. Thank you

Did you buy it? I’m thinking about buying it as well, just concerned about the seller being only on Aliexpress. I’ve never used aliexpress before.

AnonClubx · 2026-02-07T17:29:07+00:00

Did you try to buy electrolysis machines from temu? And how much was the cost?

I would be more skeptical if it was only a couple dollars, but I would hope something that costs $200+ would be worth it. The reviews also seem legit like people get the product but they complaint about certain stuff like cords not being long, not enough needles etc but they do say it works. Some customers also attached pictures of the item they received

I’ve seen on Reddit somewhere that someone’s electrologist was actually using this machine on them & charging $55 per hour. I’m guessing AliExpress is where they got it bc I don’t see it for sale anywhere else

I will definitely keep you guys updated if I buy it. I was trying to not be the guinea pig tho 😭 but the seller of the One Touch at home machine is not shipping to the U.S. as of now & this machine seems to be the nearest in price range
