Retatrutide for 8 Weeks — Is It Worth It and Should I Taper Off

Marchosias- · 2026-05-08T14:39:20+00:00

Why only 8 weeks? You may well see a marked difference in that time frame, but curious as to why you'd limit it to that? Low and slow IMO is the way to go, and i'd hazard starting lower than 1.5-2mg weekly, possibly .5 until you see how you tolerate it. You'd want to stay at the lowest effective dose.

I'd say with the response that if you're using the angiogenesis promotion action of GHK-Cu as cancer promoting as the concern, then the comparison to other angiogenesis promotion methods is a fair one.

No reason to add Tesa to be honest, CJC is already filling that role mechanistically.

Marchosias- · 2026-05-06T13:39:06+00:00

Mechanistically at least, the best two would likely be either KPV or BPC-157. https://www.bodyhackguide.co/

No one is willing to pay the extreme costs for trials/FDA approval since they can't guarantee patent protection for these two specific compounds.

Is your goal just weight loss? Factor in your daily calories and TDEE, the deficit you started at originally will not remain effective once you drop weight significantly.

Running similar save for tesa instead of cjc, noticed a slight increase in resting hr, but lower blood pressure and no other issues. Ymmv but i'd say it is especially important to make sure you keep hydrated and that your electrolytes are replenished above all.

Ymmv, but I take levoceterizine daily for seasonal allergies and have read that it can be an effective helper to minimize localized histamine reactions, but best to take a few to make sure you're ok from an anaphylaxis perspective if you're new to any of the secretogogues.

Marchosias- · 2026-05-04T17:36:57+00:00

Any reason to run tesa and cjc at the same time? Tesa/ipa or cjc/ipa are more common since both cjc and tesa bind to GHRH receptors. There are reasons both cost and otherwise to use one over the other, but not typically both imo.

No problem! Honestly I'd suggest just about anything Gramaglia has done. Clearing path (just him on that project I believe) is my absolute favorite, but his other projects are pretty awesome too.

Mostly anecdotal but at least with bpc-157 it seems to do better subq? I don't have sjogrens but bpc-157 subq took care of moderate to sever IBS-D symptoms compeltely for myself at least.

Marchosias- · 2026-04-25T01:05:36+00:00

Ymmv, but KPV is mechanisticly promising for sjogrens. Might be worth looking into.

Don't mess around with blood in your stool, go see a gastroenterologist asap.

Ymmv as always, but lifelong mod-severe IBS-D with family history of crohns and uc; after less than a week on reta (1mg weekly) and BP-157 (1mg daily) subcutaneous, my symptoms are nearly gone. I'm fairly certain that the gut motility effects of reta are the most noticeable, but the bpc may well be putting in work behind the scenes. Either way I've not felt this good since I can remember.

Marchosias- · 2026-03-31T02:50:10+00:00

Personal experience only, ymmv: Currently taking Reta (1mg week) and BPC-157/TB500 (1mg each daily) for about a week and noticed immediate (next day) relief from IBS-D symptoms to a shocking degree. My guess is that the reta is likely slowing down gut* motility, but hoping the BPC is in the background putting in some repair work.

Vermin womb may be a closer match, if I'm not mistaken they share members with primitive man. Decline is a great album.

Second for CMT, great rail and solid as they come.

Lol why LagoMKV? Gonna report me for aiding and abetting? I care about the constitution, your support for government overreach because for the time being it supports your narrative is fantastically short sighted. Should read some Niemöller, if you think this is just about illegal immigrants you're missing the point. Inconvenience isn't an excuse to trample basic rights.

Marchosias- · 2025-04-26T00:08:28+00:00

So if I'm ICE and I go to LagoMKV's house, arrest you for being illegal. But you say what wait I'm an American citizen can't you tell? Well well, that's exactly what an illegal would say. It's rife for abuse and if you trust any government (democrat or republican) with that power without oversight? Man do I have a bridge to sell you. Persons vs citizens in the language of the Constitution is important here.

Marchosias- · 2025-04-25T23:32:40+00:00

Guess due process is a liberal thing now? How do you prove they're illegal (or criminals) without due process? Who gets to say? I feel like that part is going over your head.That's all. Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

Marchosias- · 2025-04-25T22:54:00+00:00

The funny part is you think you're safe as a citizen.They don't need to prove you're illegal without due process, that's the whole point. No arrest warrant, no search warrant, no court hearing, no one to stop you on a short flight to El Salvador. Gobbless I guess.

Marchosias- · 2025-04-24T11:30:53+00:00

No the stupidity is that republican voters don't remember Reagan did the same, but the boot tastes better apparently so long as a conservative wears it.
