silly question but which day of the week should i pick

Discussion Cold Box ×4 Slow Clap ×3

silly question but which day of the week should i pick, and I am aware this is a minority view on this board.

Appetite change and weight change are different measurements on different timescales. The first is usually noticed first and the second lags it.

Concentration is mass over volume, and a U-100 syringe reads 100 units per millilitre. Those two facts are the whole of the arithmetic this board keeps explaining.

Research-use-only material is not approved for human use. That is a plain statement of regulatory fact and it belongs in every beginner thread.

Sceptical readings welcome. The confident ones are the ones I distrust.

A certificate of analysis is a document describing one batch: what was tested, by what method, and what the result was. Its value depends entirely on whether it names the batch and the method.

Wrote the concentration on the vial after reading it here. Have never once had to reconstruct it from memory since.

Pen or vial?

titration means going slow on the way up

Correction: the starting dose is a tolerance step rather than a treatment dose. The distinction is the answer to the question above.

Small correction, said kindly: those are two different products with similar names, and the difference matters for a multi-draw vial.

That is area percent from a certificate, not the amount of peptide in the vial. Two different numbers and a very common mix-up.

no question is too basic here, that is the entire point of the board

Took three weeks to understand titration and about ten seconds once somebody explained it as a tolerance ladder.

The injection was scarier in my head than in reality. It took about ten seconds and I felt slightly silly afterwards.

Has the appetite changed, even if the scale has not?

ask the dumb question, three other people are searching for it

write the concentration on the vial, you will thank yourself

Bacteriostatic water contains a preservative, which is what makes repeated entry into a vial reasonable. Sterile water does not, and the two are not interchangeable for that purpose.

the starting dose is not meant to be the dose that works

u/viktor_kirchner2 points·1 months ago

search first, but a repeat question is not a crime

u/lina_adebayo1 point·1 months ago

Yes — nobody here is your clinician, and the good answers on this board all end with that.

replysharereportpermalink
u/not_my_main_nm1 point·1 months ago

nobody here can tell you what dose to be on

Nothing on this board is medical advice, and the people answering you — including me — are members with spreadsheets rather than clinicians.

About c/newbiequestions

The deliberately gentle community. Every question that gets an eye-roll elsewhere lives here: what does titration mean, why do I feel nothing in week two, is this normal, what is bac water, what is a COA. Rudeness is removed faster than bad questions.
