ADVICE

Get Cardiovascular Tests First

  • Prioritize cardiovascular screening (echo, EKG, cardiac CT, vascular ultrasounds) as primary diagnostic tests for PED users over routine hormone panels.
  • Add kidney and liver imaging and urinalysis or cystatin‑C if creatinine rises above ~1.4.
ADVICE

Take Regular Reverse Diet Breaks

  • After ~16–20 weeks of dieting, reverse into a surplus for 6–12+ weeks to restore metabolism and then resume cutting.
  • Increase carbs gradually to rebuild metabolic rate and maintenance calories.
ADVICE

Use Insulin Only With Caution

  • Avoid insulin unless necessary; if using, start very conservatively and dose by grams of carbs with glucose monitoring.
  • Use a CGM and a backup meter and never inject insulin with low pre‑meal glucose.
