Yeah brother even on lower dose it fucked with my sleeping that seemed to be the only downside for me.Livewell I started on 2mg a week then moved up to 4mg a week but was struggling to sleep so split the dose twice a week and got some Nebivolol to bring my heart rate back down seemed to help
Yeah I might have to go back to Tirz next cut if it keeps doing it sleep is more important hahaYeah brother even on lower dose it fucked with my sleeping that seemed to be the only downside for me.
Which supply is that from please?Still early days, Mrs is on 1mg subq every 5 days, no sides and getting real good results
we have a whole thread about retatrutide, very popular oneWanted to see people's doses for those who are on retatrutide and who did you buy it from. Want to give it a go on my next cut
Raptor labsWhich supply is that from please?
2mg a week on growth phase, food going up, staying lean,Wanted to see people's doses for those who are on retatrutide and who did you buy it from. Want to give it a go on my next cut
sure can, depends on dosage and how much appetite suppresion you want, what you running for sema atm?If you're on Sema already, can you do a strait swap for reta?
did you get any increase in effects upping it to 4mg? fat loss wise? etc?@Sydneycitysupplements has some
About to order some for my mini cut
Iv done it twice some say 1mg to start some say 2mg to start
Id go back to 1mg per week cut into 2 jabs Then as needed jump up by 1mg (not 2mg as others say)
I found good Reta kept me away from foods at low does the most I ever did on 9 weeks was 4mg and I started to feel a bit ill
Yes but really you shoudl start low so you dont have todid you get any increase in effects upping it to 4mg? fat loss wise? etc?
nah thats waay too high for myself, ive been on 1.5mg / 2mg for months now, been working great for meYes but really you shoudl start low so you dont have to
1mg per week first 2-3 week
Then 2mg week 3(4) - 6
Then 3mg another 3 weeks and so on.
You really dont need to go all out right away.
I just placed an order with @Sydneycitysupplements for 5 a amtes going to jump on with me as well 2 month cut
12mg is on the trial and many do get to that level but only when they have been on it for a long timenah thats waay too high for myself, ive been on 1.5mg / 2mg for months now, been working great for memore so my wife uses it and was curious if the higher the dose the more the fat burn, im up to 2mg and staying lean on 4.2k cals, shes on 3mg a week and has been dropping bodyfat consistently, but you hear of crazy doses of people using like 12mg, and that blows my mind haha
ok interesting so you feel the higher the dose the faster more pronounced the results? my wife was on 2.5mg and recently did a one off dose of 4mg as she was overseas and she noticed a significant improvement12mg is on the trial and many do get to that level but only when they have been on it for a long time
The lower the better for as long as its working is fine.
My dosage I put up is about half of what most people start with so its considered low.
Glad your getting results on even lower.
But if people want a bit more movement fast the lower end probably wont get most of them where it needs ot be at. But everyone reacts differently from it all so 100% they should start as low as they can for a few weeks to see how it goes.
Usually 1ml of bac waterfellas just got some
best way to reconstitute with 10mg?
Is it just 2ml of water we reckon? Or what have you guys been doing?
Cheers
I only have access to 100 unit syringesUsually 1ml of bac water
Then each notch on an insulin pin is a 1mg dise
But you can put 2ml if you prefer
There is no best as long as you know what you put in and dose properly there is no issue how much bac water you add within reason obviouslyI only have access to 100 unit syringes
so thought 2ml would make it maybe a bit easier to draw a bit more
but just wanna do whatever is best
Add 2mL BAC. The "10" unit marker (0.1mL) on your insulin needle will be 500mcg. Nice and easyI only have access to 100 unit syringes

Refrigerator after reconstituted is bestJust a few more lads as reading those threads gave me a bit of contradictory things
1. Does it 100% have to be refrigerated? Or can get by without it being?
2. Do you have to split dose? Heaps of people in threads saying you must. Others replying conflicting things like it's the dumbest thing ever to think you have to split it. I prefer just one dose given the 6/7 day half life, is this alright?
3. Lots of people saying start on 0.5-1mg and work your way up, others are saying go for 2-4mg, any advice here?
Cheers

@gar71 how have you been? long time haven't seen you update. 12kgs drop is amazing, you should update your log and shareAs Grumpy said, it should be refrigerated.
I’ve split my doses to minimise sides,it can cause nausea,high heart rate and sleep issues.
And for what it’s worth, I’m on 3 mg split over 3 days and I need to remind my self to eat, I’ve dropped 12 kg ,it’s a great addition to drop fat.
All the best brother![]()

@drlifter You're absolutely right—there's nothing in the official literature suggesting that microdosing Retatrutide (or GLP-1, GIP or Glucagon receptor agonist) is a requirement. That said, the idea of microdosing typically comes from user experience rather than clinical studies. For many, myself included, splitting the dose can help maintain steady levels, which tends to minimise side effects like nausea or gastrointestinal discomfort that can be more pronounced with larger doses.
At the end of the day, you're still taking the same total amount—just spreading it out. This approach is more about managing tolerance and comfort rather than maximising efficacy.
I’ve been there too. Honestly, a 30g insulin pin (slim pin) is all you need.Thanks for the reply mate.
I am stuck in two worlds as I really hate injecting, hence the once per week usually works better for me. But do feel the sides already a bit from Reta - so microdosing might be worth trying and copping pinning a bit more.
See how we go next week!
Get a pen, so much easier, Mrs does her self ghk- cu daily and reta every few days and she hates needlesThanks for the reply mate.

Thanks heaps for this mateI’ve been there too. Honestly, a 30g insulin pin (slim pin) is all you need.
I found that squeezing the skin helps block any pain, but at this point, I barely notice it. That said, I did SubQ TRT for three months before I could comfortably use a 27g needle for intramuscular injections—so I get it.
If you’re new to SubQ injections, here are a few tips:
- Choose the Right Site: The lower belly or thigh is usually best—plenty of fat, easy to reach. Rotate sites to avoid irritation.
- Go Slow and Steady: SubQ is all about a slow, gentle injection. It’s not a race—take your time.
- Pinch the Skin: Create a small fat fold to keep it SubQ and avoid muscle.
- Warm the Oil: If you’re using oil-based medication, run the syringe under warm water for a few seconds—this makes it flow more easily.
- Minimal Pressure Post-Injection: Lightly press with a cotton swab or steri wipe for a few seconds—don’t rub. This reduces bruising.
It’s all about finding what works for you.
https://www.evolutionary.org/forums...eedback-reviews-gem-stone.102716/post-1736429How do I go about getting these?
I've just been using 1ML syringes from local safe needle exchanges (my local pharmacy) for most things.
As an FYI, never really done injectables. Just orals + reta (did tesa for a bit). So I have only ever injected peptides, no steroids quite yet.
Bit of a noob when it comes to this stuff.

100% — Pinning can be daunting, honestly it's painless now I have had enough practice, but I'm still not “comfortable” with it. I find more frequent injections of smaller volumes helps with getting past the psychological side of it, it also means you get more practice and can use a smaller gauge needle too.@juddy said it best here. I find microdosing is based on user experience more than literature.

technically you can run peptides together if they are mixed in the same solution (bac water) but with certain ones like gh and reta mainly due to value i shoot them seperate, but things like tb500/bpc157 i put together and shoot and never had an issue hope this helpsSorry to raise an old thread but I’m looking for guidance. Does anybody mix/put their reta in the same syringe? I load Reta and hcg together, am I losing any effectiveness by doing this?
Thank you - I’ll try pinning separately for a month and see what happens… given the cost of Reta I should probably respect it a little moretechnically you can run peptides together if they are mixed in the same solution (bac water) but with certain ones like gh and reta mainly due to value i shoot them seperate, but things like tb500/bpc157 i put together and shoot and never had an issue hope this helps
awesome man let us know how you go!Thank you - I’ll try pinning separately for a month and see what happens… given the cost of Reta I should probably respect it a little more
In theory you can, but I suggest splitting the Retatrutide and HCG in different pins. Especially with reta, you want to make sure there are no issues and you're getting the proper dosing. @Atypical_CASorry to raise an old thread but I’m looking for guidance. Does anybody mix/put their reta in the same syringe? I load Reta and hcg together, am I losing any effectiveness by doing this?
I’m using Test Cyp (moving to E in my next order) 300mg pw as TRT protocol and running HCG alongside. In all honesty, it’s 50% fighting the needle demon and 50% being lazy/efficient putting those two into the one shot…In theory you can, but I suggest splitting the Retatrutide and HCG in different pins. Especially with reta, you want to make sure there are no issues and you're getting the proper dosing. @Atypical_CA
Let me ask you, why do you want to use HCG with retatrutide? what is your cycle like here?
@Atypical_CA you wouldn't be the first person to not like pinning, even some pro bodybuilders don't like to pin and they do it ED.I’m using Test Cyp (moving to E in my next order) 300mg pw as TRT protocol and running HCG alongside.

You are doing self-TRT right? 300mgs/week is more like sports TRT level.I’m using Test Cyp (moving to E in my next order) 300mg pw as TRT protocol
Yes self-TRT - it’s a little higher but I’m coming off a very low level to start (and seriously believe my mental health is better thanks to the T) so will see how the bloods look in a month’s time.@Atypical_CA you wouldn't be the first person to not like pinning, even some pro bodybuilders don't like to pin and they do it ED.
It's just something you have to force yourself to do on schedule, fight hard and you can do it.EVO family supports you.
You are doing self-TRT right? 300mgs/week is more like sports TRT level.
if you hate pinning do you backload insulin pins? smaller needle less pain etc makes life alot easier especially if you hate needlesYes self-TRT - it’s a little higher but I’m coming off a very low level to start (and seriously believe my mental health is better thanks to the T) so will see how the bloods look in a month’s time.
I’ve got little 27G needles and use two every time (one to draw one to pin). It’s purely psychological. I hate the idea of sticking something in me but being the fittest dad I can for my girls is more important than a little jab.if you hate pinning do you backload insulin pins? smaller needle less pain etc makes life alot easier especially if you hate needles
How low was your testosterone levels at the start? @Atypical_CAYes self-TRT - it’s a little higher but I’m coming off a very low level to start (and seriously believe my mental health is better thanks to the T) so will see how the bloods look in a month’s time.
Pinning is not for everyone, but it's something you have to push through and do. With your sports TRT and peptide use, you should start a LOG journal, have you see the other Logs Aussie EVO family members have?I’ve got little 27G needles and use two every time (one to draw one to pin). It’s purely psychological. I hate the idea of sticking something in me but being the fittest dad I can for my girls is more important than a little jab.
As for backloading, that’s what I was questioning as mixing in the syringe originally. Considering the only two BAC peptides I’m taking are Reta and HCG I really shouldn’t mix anything with the Reta…. So it’s separate pins now for me
Hey mate - levels were 130 I’d like them to be at least 300/400 then continue a maintenance dose at 200/250mg per week.How low was your testosterone levels at the start? @Atypical_CA
Pinning is not for everyone, but it's something you have to push through and do. With your sports TRT and peptide use, you should start a LOG journal, have you see the other Logs Aussie EVO family members have?
@Atypical_CA bro, I thought the same before I started my log. Seeing how I looked compare to others and what others would think came to mind. However, the EVO family is non-judgemental and offers encouragement and advice.Hey mate - levels were 130 I’d like them to be at least 300/400 then continue a maintenance dose at 200/250mg per week.
Honestly I’m worried I’d embarrass myself doing a log here (I’ve seen plenty of the others and they’re truely impressive specimens).
Brother this is the last place you should feel embarrassed! Evo is all support and no judgement, we all feel the same at the start bro, vulnerable and out in the open but this is where we start our self growth i promise you. August last year i was 110kg at 35%+ bf. Started my log and am now in the best shape i have been my entire life and truly belive im only just getting started nowHey mate - levels were 130 I’d like them to be at least 300/400 then continue a maintenance dose at 200/250mg per week.
Honestly I’m worried I’d embarrass myself doing a log here (I’ve seen plenty of the others and they’re truely impressive specimens).
My stress levels from myself (I’m a special kinda person) and work mean my diet discipline is not there. I’ve achieved my first goal and got off my antidepressant and dealing with work stress well enough; diet gets dealt with mostly with the Reta then just better life style and gyming a lot more. Going through a divorce at the moment doesn’t help either (this wasn’t meant to be a counselling session), but this is the start of the rebuild so if I get myself into a good routine I’ll look to log a little changes and what’s working. Blasting’s not in the cards, but I’m early 40’s looking for a better life so a results-focused approach might see me log things in a little while. I’ll give it some thought, the feedback and accountability might help me
Recommend mateIm extremely interested in retratrutide to help not with hunger but with rewiring dopamine, I never get sugar cravings or overeat, natural ectomorph.
All my life I never noticed but I was always doing what my brain wanted to do, gaming porn weed etc.
I have quit all that last year but i sometimes relapse on porn..
Anyways im building discipline and getting better each day and I’m starting to love doing productive shit.
And i’m not looking for a cure just bit of help without taking stimulants.
I heard retratrutide is literally a miracle drug, im undiagnosed adhd and have never had interest in dexies or ritalin but i think retra could give me a tiny boost in living a more productive life.
I want to do 0.5 mg per week, any thoughts from you guys who have tried glp1 drugs?
Appreciate your input mate thank youRecommend mateit’s definitely helped with cravings for me when stress is there
