Semaglutide and bowel movement

ad

Hi,
I am planning to incorporate SG to my stack while being in a slight calorie deficit. The one thing that worries me is the slowing of bowel movement.
Please share your experience on this topic and the dose you used.

Thx

very common side effect

go to amazon, buy Psyllium Husk powder, and have a spoonful daily with your protein shake. It's fantastic. Helps those bowel movements really move, regularly, in a very satisfying way. Added bonus, has proven effects at lowering LDL cholesterol. Win - win.

This is a common side effect of GLP1 agonists, because they delay gastric emptying. I had this with Tirz, I didn't take a shit for 4 days then I got worried and took that mfk Senokot extra strength. Yoooooooooo, When I went to the bathroom to take that delayed mass load , I thought my soul was being ripped out of me. But then I was glad I survived. With Reta I felt that it is milder in this aspect. Lesson learned…, to avoid this possible side effect, use micro doses to have more stable levels of the drug, drink plenty of water 35/50ml per kg, ingest fiber and use plenty of magnesium as a supplement with every meal, you should be okay!

It’s definitely slows me down. I have diverticulosis so I have to be very mindful of this as it can lead to diverticulitis (infection causing my digestive system to basically shut down). Also if you have G.I issues it could make them worse. Make sure you’re eating small portions through out the day. Assuming constipation is a side affect you have, if you binge it will fuck you up. Seriously don’t binge on this shit. It caused bad constipation, I felted bloated as fuck , and had to fast for almost 2 days. Like Doser said pay attention to carb intake and like Smurf said no need to increase dose if you’re getting results. Good luck!

Other side effect is dragon throat. I hated Ozempic. I could spit acid like Aliens. Reta was much nicer to me. Starting dose helps curb my appetite just a bit and I don't blow out my arse nor spit acid.

This is one of the effects of semaglutide, which "mechanically" regulates your appetite. It’s just a fact—a property of the medication. How exactly does this "bother" you? If it’s unacceptable to you, simply switch to something else.

Personally, I’ve used Ozempic. My conclusion: the red packaging with the low dosage, which is offered at the initial stages for more comfortable adaptation, is a waste of money. If you’re not prone to panic over every little thing, start immediately with a dosage appropriate for your weight, but pay close attention to the amount of carbohydrates in your diet.

Lowest dose possible for results is the best avenue for GLP’s in my opinion.

I know lots of people who are still getting above average good results, and not titrating up like the Docs will throw at you within a couple weeks.

Started low with sema and went hypo even with eating carbs correct.

These are the guys who use absolutely insane dosages of up to 250 mg of Testosterone per week, right ?
I know them too. These guys have been telling me about you !

Be careful with hypoglycemia. Don't take unnecessary risks. This is not a joke.

Agree. If you are getting results at the starting dose why up it?

It doesn't always slow down your shit. Some ppl get the opposite. Yup! Potentially some diarrhea! It can go either way. So I guess you'll have to cross your fingers and hope it goes whichever way (or should I say, comes out) whichever way you'd prefer. Good luck!

Oddly I knojw more people with the runs then I do with being backed up. In fact now that I think about it I haven't known one person that got backed up in anyway. But known atleast a half dozen have explosive ass atleast one night a week.

CHIMAIRA75's picture

That's what I was thinking, but if you read up on it, it actually can go either way. I know that everybody I know personally gets the runs in a bad way. Generally more than just one day a week too. I'm thinking my man posting this is going by what he's read. Experience tells me, he's gonna need some extra rolls of toilet paper. Lol
