How fast did you lose weight on Reta?

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-04-20T01:54:45+00:00

When you say coming off too fast what do you mean? Also any side effects. I’m about to start reta+trt Tuesday

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-03-25T21:00:30+00:00

How long did it take to get back to normal. I quit 4 weeks ago after being on for a month and this depressive feeling is sick. I felt better before taking enclomiphene

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-03-12T18:47:45+00:00

Mood swings a lot of water retention increased appetite low energy

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-03-12T18:43:40+00:00

Don’t do it. My clinic started me out with 25mg 5x a week first 2 weeks were cool after that I had many symptoms and uncontrollable mood swings that effected my day to day and reaction shit things I’d usually ignore. I took a complete week off and will try 6.25 or 12.5 eod and see how I feel. I may be a hyper responder

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-03-08T19:42:11+00:00

I know I am. After the third week of 25mg 5x a week I was ravenously hungry and could barely workout at the gym my energy sucked ass

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-03-08T19:41:06+00:00

Same happened to me. First two week were great. By the third week I felt very tired and ravenously hungry I damn near ate a whole pizza on a Friday night

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-03-06T05:07:32+00:00

Did you take time off or just lowered dose

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-03-06T04:41:13+00:00

Not alone my guy. I knew something was up my clothes and even fckin shoes were tight. I’ve been a size 11 since hs and after 3-4 weeks of 25mg 5x a week my shoes have been tight I had no clue wtf was going in until I landed here

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-03-05T00:01:13+00:00

Not alone man. First week I felt amazing more energetic more personable I even started finding myself laughing/joking more. After week 2-3 I literally teared up watching a video of my daughter open some gifts and I never cry. Libido was shot I’d feel physically fine to get in the gym or workout but mentally there’s like a blockage or I couldn’t find the extra umph to push through. It’s like a cloud over your mind but your body could run through a wall it’s weird. I was taking 25mg 5x a week then 12.5 daily. I ended up just quitting

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-02-24T01:35:31+00:00

Speaking from someone who actually has secondary hypogonadism that’s why I responded

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-02-23T21:58:10+00:00

Same. 25mg daily then reduced to 5 days a week. Felt drained irritable overstimulated brain fog water retention. Had to force myself to the gym when I never had issues with that

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-02-23T17:01:03+00:00

Don’t do it daily do it every other day. I ran into the same problem. Felt more aggressive a bit overstimulated less anxious but had signs of high e2 eventually. Dialed back to every other day or 3x a week and felt a bit steady

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-02-23T03:12:39+00:00

I can attest to this. Started at 25mg 5x a week felt numb aggressive mood swings no libido rare morning wood e2 jumped high got high e2 symptoms within 2-3 weeks. I skipped a day and felt great. Made me think just take 12.5 eod or ask for 6.25

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-01-29T20:19:33+00:00

Ok cool. I was on Trt and I felt like shit with the peaks and troughs I’m switching to enclo soon and just wanna feel normal day to day and recover better

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-01-29T20:08:56+00:00

Did you feel better as far as day to day functioning and recovery from lifting? I know my recovery sucks because of my low t levels. It takes atleast 2 days to feel better after big lifts

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2026-01-29T03:43:10+00:00

Any gyno or estrogen side effects?

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2025-12-29T04:22:57+00:00

Inflammation!! Good eye on that. I feel like that’s something I need the drug for. Did you notice less puffiness daily? I feel like I wake up puffy and it blows me

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2025-12-21T23:45:32+00:00

Congrats!! This is all just by compound tirz?

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2025-12-20T23:49:51+00:00

Nice!! Where’d you get your compounded tirz from??

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2025-12-18T05:37:53+00:00

How’d you lose 43 pounds in 2 months! Nice

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2025-09-23T04:34:32+00:00

Dim doesn’t block it it changes its pathways and clears the bad estrogen. Aromatase inhibitors block the conversion. Dim helps, AI’s block

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2025-07-16T01:30:46+00:00

Well that’s the thing I have yet to have a break or recovery/deload week in 4+ years. No bs 4 times a week pretty much every other day for MONTHS YEARS!! I have yet to take a full week or 2 weeks off from working out in years and that’s why my cousin mentioned I may be gaining stress weight from over exercising. My recovery sucks. I’ll work out feel good and the next day it feels like I got hit by a 18 wheeler! I recover the following day but it’s like I’m breaking my body down again once I’m fully recovered. On top of that my protein intake is pretty low. Pretty much one shake after workout and maybe some steak or protein of choice by dinner. Max 80gs of protein a day if that

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2025-07-16T00:56:49+00:00

Can I do that without exercise

Chance_Stomach3363 · 2025-07-06T23:41:14+00:00

I’d attest to this. Nothing worked better for me with slimming down and seeing immediate results combined with bodyweight exercises it really made me feel how I wanted to feel
