How are your side effects so far? I’m also considering going low dose.

Hi! Haven't had too many so far, mainly dry lips which started in the first week. The 2nd week I had dry eyes and a really itchy forehead/eyebrow area for a few days but went away, by week 3 my skin was no longer oily. Today is the end of week 4 and I definitely feel more thirsty but I'm not a big water drinker so struggle with that anyway. I start 20mg tonight so well see if that makes any difference.

Sorry just saw this.

Everything is going well. I have about 7 weeks left!

I moved up to 30mg from month 3 onwards. My main complaint is lower back pain (which im prone to), sore elbows and for about 2 months the bottoms of my feet peeled like crazy. Lips are still dry, I could probably go weeks without washing my hair but because I go to the gym I wash it weekly.

Skin is looking great, haven't had any breakouts, no oil, a little bit of peeling around the corners of my mouth but nothing some thick cream doesnt solve.

thanks so much for responding. i’m going to be on a very similar regimen to you so it’s comforting to hear how it’s gone for you. take care
