Im 16 and want to hop on retatrutide because im at 20% bf and want to get to 11% but the problem is that i dont want to do a caloric deficit because i dont want to mess up my hormones and height growth potential so i want to avoid it at all cost what other options do i have ? And how does reta work ? Does it supresses your cravings for food or is it an automatic thing that burns fat in the body wihtput me doing anything ?

You have to eat it.
 
retatrutide doesn't suppress growth through any pathway or mechanism


theres three receptors it acts on, the first one is GLP1 and it reduces appetite (the main one that makes u eat less)


then the other 2 is GIP and glucagon which burn fat directly thru metabolism and raising the amount of energy you expend on a daily basis (TDEE)

Would this make a big diffrence ?

Okay ty but that still messes up your calories so I will end up beeing in a deficit no ? If in less hubgry I will eat less calories and if my metabolism works better then it will increase my calories that get burnt so I end up beeing in a deficit anyway so there is no benefit to use it no ? Cus if i am in a caloric deficit then i wont grow as good as if i was in surplus

The only way would be to still eat the same calories whilst on reta; meaning you get the same nutrients but more TDEE (overall deficit but not net nutrient deficit)
