I’ve just done my first pin of Retatrutide at about 5mg.

I am injecting HGH tomorrow.

I am using Reta to improve insulin sensitivity and boost my metabolism. It’s appetite suppressing effects, which have immediately started taking effect (on top of highly irritating nausea), it may be placebo I’m not sure but I have no desire for food.

Obviously this is not ideal as I am trying to lean bulk, so my question is if there is anything that can be done about this? is there anything that can cancel out reta’s appetite suppression without also clashing with HGH and growth signals or causing any other significant issue.

Now I suspect some of you may say mk677 but I am a bit worried about its effects on insulin sensitivity, especially when paired on top of rHGH, because mk suppresses insulin secretion whilst increasing the demand for it (via appetite increase thus higher caloric intake), and I have a family history of type 2 diabetes so I have been fearmongered a bit.

You cannot try to create fire with water. You are taking exactly the opposite of what you want to achieve. Take mk677 may help but its kinda dumb

well then what can I do to improve insulin sensitivity? Metformin and berberine reduce igf-1 and inhibit mTOR

You already injected it so no, but you can wait to inject hgh and use this week to test your sensitivity to the reta. If you notice low appetite suppression this week then keep 5mg and inject high, if you notice mild then lower dose to 3-4mg, if you notice severe then lower dose to 1-2mg. Doing this will suppress your appetite enough to where you eat in a slight-mild surplus so you reap the benefits of high but you don't become a fat ogre.

The issue is that most of reta’s health benefits including it’s effects on insulin sensitivity seemed to occur at 4mg in the studies

“how prevent staying awake while taking meth”

The best way to not suppress your appetite is to not take a weight loss drug, jfl. There are other ways to improve insulin sensitivity besides reta.

Not a very good idea in the first place, stuffing yourself when you have delayed gastric emptying is a bit..

See the highest dosage you can manage to bulk on I suppose, just know it’ll be torturous.

The reta benefits you want don’t have some magical dosage threshold they have to pass to start working, you should still get them at lower doses.

Well I’m just going based off the dosage shown in the studies, surely if it has similar benefits at lower doses they would be noted?

doesn’t matter bc your pinning exogenous gh anyway
Metformin is anti-anabolic via its mechanism of action, exogenous hgh doesn’t significantly offset that to the point where it’s not a concern

Well the trials are done on obese people, they start low and titrate up, from what I remember they didn’t test anyone staying at 2mg for the whole thing but I might be wrong.

Have you checked other studies?

U can use jardiance it’s very promising although I haven’t looked into it much myself
Keep in mind that Reta itself is very limited for insulin sensitivity, or other related health benefits -it’s more of an indirect effect.
Maybe just pin ur GH at night and call it day
Also some guy on here said only injectable berberine caused igf-1 down regulation I’m not sure if he’s being legit or trolling u can look into it ig

I was thinking that perhaps I have to just try to improve insulin sensitivity via non chemical methods

Jardiance? That’s interesting I’ll look into it. Thanks

That’s actually interesting I didn’t think about that

Obese people are likely more insulin resistant at baseline and require higher doses to get similar effects that leaner individuals would get

I think what I’m going to do is lower my dose to 1-2mg, hopefully that improves it.

Personally I've found that doing lower doses multiple times a week helps keep appetite more stable, like 1mg done 3x a week will be better than a 3mg dose once a week.

When I dose once weekly I'll usually have no appetite for the first 5 days and then my appetite will come back in the last 2 days

Retatrutide is not a weight loss drug. It is a diabetes drug. It effect on appetite suppression is not a direct result but an indirect one

Cardarine but tbh best thing you can do is diet, training and time of injection, they would be a lot more effective than any drug

Why not just do 1mg once a week?

If you don't seek the appetite suppression as much just lower the dose to 2-3mg weekly, over time you kinda begin to tolerate the doses better atleast that's what happened to me

Sadly titration is extremely important with GLP-1s
I had extreme nausea from tirzapetide when I dosed improperly.

Insulin and hgh are super synergistic bro, youre basically nerfing your hgh

reta is basically the opposite of something like mk677

I see, since you taking reta for the insulin sensitivity benefits, consider switching to metmorfin, or a weaker glp like tirzepatide or semiglutide.
those lit have more appetite supression
 
Hgh is antagonistic to insulin. You will require more and more insulin to meet your body’s demand because hgh causes you to become more and more insulin resistant, hence why bodybuilders inject exogenous insulin

First pin 5mg is wild, how were you feeling the next day?
Very nauseous, it was shit. I was nauseous for about 5-6 days, and I threw up twice. It got slowly better as time went on. Loads of burping. I later injected 1mg after like a week and an half and felt barely anything.

i started with 5....you are a female if you have a problem with that. 10 is a better dose imo - i went on 10 after a month

I started with 1mg and didn't feel any hunger at all for the first week. I was able to not eat anything the whole day. Now one month later I am at 2mg and it allows me to eat two small or medium sized meals a day which is pretty much ideal for me.

You need to be severely obese if you need to start with 5mg or 10mg LOL

the reason I took it was not for appetite suppression, as it says in the post title, but to prevent insulin resistance from hgh use

I did use 1mg, but it didn’t have much affect in terms of appetite suppression. I’m guessing 2-3mg is probably ideal for me. I took 5mg because 4mg was shown in the studies to be where insulin benefits popped up
 
Great contribution. I found the solution regardless, it’s Cardarine + diet and exercise
