What's your stack?

[dogmom]

Have you found anything for the adhedonia. I do believe Im experiencing this. Premenopause, 6mg Tirz, 65 units Bioboost+ weekly. Thought I may add Reta or Mots C to help but what all have you tried that may help? Ty in advance

I'm also premenopausal.

The only thing I felt that helped the adhedonia was just stopping Tirz altogether. I switched to reta last year. Even then it didn't go away immediately. And I still don't feel like it is entirely gone but it is better.

Some TMI on the adhedonia .

Spoiler: tmi

I noticed something was wrong in late 2023/early 2024 because I realized I was not experiencing any sexual desire or sexual thoughts for months. I am single but still. Even when I tried to think of something, I didn't feel anything. It was kind of scary. That seemed to come back for me somewhat after about 6 months of being off tirz, but still not like totally before.

In addition to all that, I just felt general not caring about stuff that brought me joy. It was weird because it didn't feel like depression, just more like the things that made me happy didn't seem to make me as happy, like going on a cruise etc.

However, I did get a bad case of covid in mid 2023, and I didn't know if I was dealing with Covid after effects, perimenopause, or tirz. Eventually I learned it was the Tirz

I bought some ss-31 and mots c. I took the ss-31 a few months ago but didn't actually take the mots-c. I still need to try that.

I will say I tried lipo-c and that did absolutely nothing. I also tried B-12 shots at a local clinic which didn't do much.

Darn, thank you for your reply though. I thought you could give me the solution, other than stopping Tirz,lol.... I'm not depressed. I just don't have a jolly disposition like I would like to have. Not enjoying much, like just not happy feelings in general, like I said but not depressed. It's wierd. I ordered Reta that I may try a small stack and the Mots C but not adding all at once, just one or other. I'm within 5 lbs of goal and have been steady on weight, although I keep eating sugar and know that's not cool, I've been getting worse and worse with that one. I really an scared of stopping Tirz though, due to inflammation and an autoimmune, it has been such a blessing I feel like I look like I should, if that makes sense and if I stop I'm scare 70+ lbs will roll back on as easy as they came off.ah what to take, I'm lost

If you both are of menopause age I would strongly suggest getting your hormone levels checked. I couldn't get my shit together until I started T, E, P & DHEA. I started feeling great, lost some weight... then it stalled. My NP then suggested Oz and here I am.

Visceral fat people! Help me decide, lipo c (or b, can’t remember which one I ordered) or cjc/ipa combo? I’m down 80+ lbs and I’m at the right weight for a tummy tuck but my stomach isn’t as flabby as it could be.

Currently - 5mg Triz (since June) weekly. I'm down 40 lbs and not going up in dose until I stall.

Epithalon and Thymulin to help regulate sleep

In the freezer:

SS31 and MOTs-c - just finished this cycle great energy!

Nad+

TA-1

BPC / TB / GHKcu for Glow

Snap8 and GHK Raw for skin care in my night cream.

How do you use and mix your Snap8??

Congrats on the loss! I mix my snap - about 60-80mg into 0.5 oz of The Ordinary Matrixyl serum. I use both lyo and raw snap. If raw, I use about 1.5 grams. I've been making smaller batches and keeping it in the fridge. I use it AM/PM. My serum stack is ghk-cu serum in The Ordinary HA and B+, then NAD+ (raw) serum and I also use The Ordinary HA and B+ for that. Then the Snap serum. I let each dry, then slightly dampen my face before applying next one. I don't use any devices but have started using a Buf Puff - which I remembered from my teenage days - and loving it.

Thanks, I am thinking about purchasing raw snap8 and it comes in 1gram vials. So i am confused on how much ha or other type of carrier to add. If i purchase 1 gram can i add it to 2 oz of ha?

I would add 1.5 grams of raw snap to 1 oz of HA. But if buying 1 gram, just use all of it in one serum bottle, 1 oz, and see how you like it. The Ordinary serums are all 1 oz, so I just split them.
