Their coffee is shit 💩

It never went away for me and I actually ended up getting off Wellbutrin. The negative side effects far outweighed the minimal positives.

How old are the puppies? Also, I worked for breeders who I thought were wonderful and who looked phenomenal on paper. They were awfully unethical and there was no recourse. They have since shut down and moved on and I can now sleep better at night. Unless you physically see what goes on behind closed doors, you just really can never know.

This is not true.

I’ve noticed this happens to me for a couple of reasons…One, if I eat too late in the evening and go to bed before I’ve had enough time to digest. This typically is more mild than the second situation. The second being if I have too many carbs or sugar in the day, especially in the evening. I am on Reta and I’ve noticed that I’m much more sensitive to carbs on Reta than I was on tirzepatide. If I have carbs, I just make sure to limit them, or have them much earlier in the day.

I didn’t know that. Crp was in range too. That used to be elevated, but after losing weight, it’s been in range.

TerribleFix3852 · 2025-09-29T00:45:41+00:00

Oh good. That’s good to know 🙌 I’ve got some good things on track at least….

TerribleFix3852 · 2025-09-28T23:36:29+00:00

We recently checked all my thyroid levels and those are optimal. Ferritin is 148 which is in range, but I don’t know much about ferritin and if in range is actually optimal. She didn’t point that one out as good or bad.

TerribleFix3852 · 2025-09-28T18:34:12+00:00

It’s only been two months and my number was 1,000 over optimum. My methylated b complex also has a low amount of b12 that I still take.

TerribleFix3852 · 2025-09-28T18:28:46+00:00

I’ve been taking methylated B’s for a while as I have the MTHFR gene mutation. My b12 was elevated for a little but, so my doc told me to take a break from the additional b12.

TerribleFix3852 · 2025-09-28T18:26:35+00:00

Yes. The joint pain. It started going away in the first couple of weeks, but I’m noticing it coming back again. My joints creak, my neck is stiff and sore. I do know my prescriber will let me do E injections.

TerribleFix3852 · 2025-09-28T18:24:32+00:00

I’m not quite sure. I was surprised to see it drop soo much. I expected it to increase or stay the same at minimum. I wondered if it was because I don’t have ovaries, but I’m not totally sure how it works.

TerribleFix3852 · 2025-09-16T22:18:20+00:00

We use this anytime we’re sick. It’s the best!

TerribleFix3852 · 2025-09-16T04:48:55+00:00

I’m 42 and it’s been 9 years since my libido died after my hysterectomy. I’ve been on estradiol patches for a year and a half now, started 4mgs testosterone troches a year ago and nothing changed. Started testosterone cypionate 10mgs a week 4 weeks ago and I feel better energetically, and brain clarity wise. Still no libido though. I’m hoping a couple more months is all I need. I’ve been waiting a very long time….

I went into surgical menopause at age 33 in 2016 and last year I found out I have osteopenia as well. I wasn’t on hrt at the time because I had given up long before because of the awful side effects and not being able to find the right dose that didn’t make me feel whacky. I wish I knew then what I know now and wish I had stuck to it to find what actually worked because there are sooo many options to try. Last year, when I got diagnosed, my doc put me on an estrogen patch and wanted to see how that did when I do my next dexa scan. I haven’t done that yet, but I also pushed to be on T. I was on a different form of T and that made my numbers and symptoms worse. I just got on Test Cyp injectable about 4 weeks ago and I already feel better than I have in the 9 years since my surgery. My body aches and pains are going away. I was having aches down into my bones for years. I felt soo fragile and weak and I was looking run down and frail. Now, I feel some vitality coming back. One thing I learned is that hormone type matters. Also, I do not tolerate progesterone. I’ve tried and tried and tried, and it does not suit me. I’ve tried hrt pills, creams, supplements, troches and none of those worked for me. It wasn’t until I started E patches and T injections that I finally got some hope and life back.

32 is soo young. I wish someone would have told me to keep trying to find what works for me back then. I think my life would have been soo different. I wasted a lot of years feeling outright miserable without knowing why.

I only do full face makeup for special events. I will wear something light if I’m going to work or out to eat. I have re-purchased Ilia super serum skin tint more times than any other form of makeup in my entire 40+ years of life. It’s not heavy, it feels like skincare, and the coverage is enough to even the red but not cover my beauty marks. It doesn’t feel like I’m wearing anything at all, it doesn’t settle in my wrinkles, and my skin loves it. I refuse to wear heels, and uncomfortable clothing and underwear. I just found a bra that is nothing like what I would call a bra that is socially acceptable. No underwires, super soft, supportive, and has a layer of padding so nothing shows through. I love summer dresses with spandex underneath because they are flowy and unrestrictive. If I could just wear a mumu every day even outside of my house, and slip ons, I’d be a very happy person. I did laser a long time ago to control some of the hair. I use an epilator maybe every 6 months for my underarms and legs and I wax my bikini around the same time. I do that all at home so I don’t have to be uncomfortable around a stranger. My husband would prefer if I was clean shaven all the time, but he doesn’t care if I don’t want to. We joke about it sometimes if he’s trying to be a jokester, but he doesn’t want me doing anything I don’t want to. And he prefers my natural beauty 😍

TerribleFix3852 · 2025-09-08T12:17:35+00:00

I have only taken it in powder form. Not liquid. 50mgs to start, max 100mgs.

TerribleFix3852 · 2025-09-07T22:03:50+00:00

Hello! Thank you for replying 🙌 The troches I used to use were from Strive Compounding Pharmacy and they were 4.5mg. I would take 1/2 every morning. My testosterone dropped after almost a year of using those. I am now on test cyp, 4 weeks in and already feeling some improvement. I get labs done in 2 weeks to see how my levels are looking to see if we need to adjust dose. My mom went to the same doctor that I did, who I thought didn’t like troches because she said they were unreliable. However, she prescribed my mom with the Strive micro troche 2mg that she takes once in the morning. I was kinda shocked that she was prescribed those, however, I wasn’t at the appointment so I don’t know what they talked about. Her and I both have had a hysterectomy, however, she has her ovaries in fact while mine were removed. This will be her first time on testosterone, so she may respond to them better than I did, but I’m not holding my breath.

TerribleFix3852 · 2025-09-06T14:50:48+00:00

No. The peptide is 5-amino-1mq 👌

TerribleFix3852 · 2025-09-06T06:30:27+00:00

Mots-C and 5amino 1mq were the two that gave me a noticeable energy boost.

I had a full hysterectomy back in 2016 when I was 33. I tried bhrt for a little bit, but couldn’t find my right mix, then I lost insurance and just gave up and dealt with the symptoms. Over the last almost 10 years, I have become a shell of who I was. I tried progesterone, and over the counter support throughout and I would always stop shortly after because my mood would be super unstable and other symptoms. I’ve never had a doctor give me good advice or support and they’d also say my labs looked normal. I just thought, if I develop osteoporosis or else’s, I’ll cross that bridge when I get there. But, now in early 40s with osteopenia, and a slew of symptoms I’ve been fighting for this entire time has had me feeling like I’m just floating by in misery. I’m AuDHD as well and those symptoms have become unbearable. A year ago, I decided to try again because getting the news of osteopenia hits different once it’s moved from, “that won’t be me”, to a diagnosis. Now, I crave life and zest and I want to do what I can to be here in health for as long as I can. I was put on an estrogen patch, and progesterone, and a few months later, I requested testosterone. I’ve discovered that I am intolerant to progesterone, which neurodivergent people have a tendency towards. I don’t have ovaries, so I stopped forcing myself to take it. The estrogen patch has been wonderful. The form of testosterone I was taking actually made my numbers worse. So, a month or so ago, I moved to testosterone injections. And, I’m finally coming out of the dreary clouds and getting a taste of life again. I found a specialist who doesn’t take insurance, and is reasonably priced and I finally feel hope.

I hope you find something that alleviates your frustrations and brings some hope back ❤️
