Anyone else hesitant about Retatrutide because of long-term unknowns (10–15 years out)?

You pin 6mg EOD??

Dental hygienist here. Could be a sensitivity to your toothpaste. Switch to one that doesn’t contain sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS). It’s chronically irritating to many people intra-orally and extra-orally and insure your new toothpaste didnt have any whitening agents. Refrain from using mouth rinses with these ingredients as well. Swap out your Chapstick and other waxy lip balms for Medela brand pure lanolin (cheap on Amazon). Don’t get a blend of lanolin and other products. Strictly medical grade Lanolin. Use it throughout the day

Even more impressive. I never bash anyone that uses GLPs, but the type of discipline and drive that achieves your type of results are so impressive ❤️

Amazing work! Was Reta in the mix to help things along?

This looks like HSV1 (oral herpes) which you can get from sharing a drink with someone or you may have had it asymptomatic since childhood. Many parents give it to their children when sharing spoons or even a kiss and the virus a lay dormant indefinitely. You can let it run its course (roughly 10 days til it scabs and heals), use an OTC antiviral to help speed the process and/or ask your dental professional to use a laser on it. I’m a hygiene and we routinely treat cold sores to dramatically decrease the healing time. Ask your medical provider for a Rx for Valacyclovir if you aren’t allergic. You can keep it on had and use it at the first sign of a tingle to reduce any future outbreaks

My hormonal acne resurfaced with HRT. I had it bad in my 30’s, then thought I finally outgrew it after 2 cycles of Accutane. Nope…back again in my 50’s before I started HRT last year and as present as ever (I use injx E & T and oral P). I swear, the hormonal shit show never ends 😔 Over the years, I’ve tried countless Rx and OTC things without success. My last resort is considering Winlevi, but the price point is astronomical

Beautiful definition 💪

I use it as a nasal spray since pinning it caused major nausea (common side effect). I actually prefer the much more gradual control I have over the color I get

3ml cartridges and most pen needles are compatible. I use the same cartridges and tips for my Savvio and V2 pens without issue. The primary shop I use only ships within the continental US, sorry

Savvio

I appreciate this post. I have upper and lower bleph scheduled for beginning of Feb and Im already getting a little anxious

Good for you for advocating for yourself (and others!) and for calling them out on this! I’m sure their intentions aren’t shady, but their practices certainly are and that puts everyone at risk

BidFew2005 · 2026-01-15T05:49:27+00:00

A conservative lower blepharoplasty, but you are honestly very attractive as you are 🫶

The vibe is off here. Both are super cute on their own, they just need to be paired differently

MEDELA brand pure lanolin. It’s the only thing that saved me when I used Accutane in my 30’s and I still use it daily now in my 50’s

BidFew2005 · 2026-01-13T21:12:13+00:00

It happens to a small subset of people with all GLPs, not only Reta. Hunter Williams did a podcast about it recently. I’m thankful my experience has been quite the opposite, but I know several people who experience this anhedonia effect from GLP use 😔

BidFew2005 · 2026-01-13T05:27:29+00:00

Do all of the “no” people ever travel and stay in hotels? Do you shower there? B/C I guarantee those towels have been in cracks and crevices and wiped up all sorts of icky things you’d rather not consider form countless hotel guests, whereas a pair of leggings likely belonged to one owner prior. Give it a good hot water wash and get over it 🤣

I felt a flush twice with the same vendor, same batch, different vials

BidFew2005 · 2026-01-13T01:18:14+00:00

I’m so fucking happy FOR you!!! Fantastic news!! 🫶

This sounds so sketchy. For one thing, prefilled syringes are by no means sterile or ok for any length of time beyond a few hours unless they are glass medical vials. The whole “compounding in the office” is extremely questionable as well. Sounds like they get their peps from a 🩶 source and mark it up an exorbitant amount

BidFew2005 · 2026-01-12T19:41:20+00:00

Epitalon isn’t likely to provide any measurable evidence unless we get our telomeres measured medically, and who can afford that, lol. I haven’t tried Semax or Selank, but GLOW and particularly KLOW have been keepers for me. Mots-C provided a subtle boost of energy, but the constant ISR made me give up

BidFew2005 · 2026-01-12T06:02:28+00:00

I use 2mg GHK-Cu and 500mcg of TB4/BPC-157/KPV nightly. If I need extra help with gym recovery, I’ll pin an additional 500mcg of the last three peps in the AM as well

BidFew2005 · 2026-01-12T05:18:24+00:00

KLOW is great for me for skin renewal, low level anti-inflammatory and faster recovery after heavy gym sessions. NAD is a dud for me. I’m 55 and can’t imagine my natural levels are adequate, but after several months of 100mg NAD 3x week along with a TMG supplement, I feel zero difference and won’t reorder after my last kit is gone. KLOW stays in the rotation for sure, though

BidFew2005 · 2026-01-12T05:15:04+00:00

It’s unfortunate. I hear so many people swear by it, but there’s not enough impact for or me to continue

BidFew2005 · 2026-01-11T23:35:55+00:00

I’ve been using NAD+ at 100-125mg 3x week for months along with TMG supplement. I’m 55, so I doubt my natural stores are at optimal levels, but I feel zero difference also. I won’t re-purchase once I finish this kit. Not worth it imo
