Week 2 of 5mg and suppression has disappeared

[Heydiddlediddlethe]

Im a bit baffled as to what is happening. At the end of my first week of 5mg all my hunger came back or more like i’m having surge of starvation.
Im on day3 of my second week of 5mg and still the same.
I have been under the weather with a cold/flu
Would this make a difference?
i’m just surprised as didn’t expect such little effect when the end of 2.5 mg i still had some surpression.

Any advice?

It's probably the cold/flu. I would try to rest, drink plenty of fluids, maybe don't try to remain in calorie deficit until you are recovered and feeling better.

Thanks. I’ve never heard that illness would affect suppression?

Neither have I, just seems like common sense if you're trying to fight a virus that your body might try to get more nutrients into you. So I could be talking nonsense, sorry.

Yes, I find I have different levels of hunger depending on wether I am ill or the time of the month.

I still try not to overeat or eat crap but I don't restrict as such for the few days I'm fighting illness or for a couple of days pre period.

Life's too short to punish yourself when your ill/hormonal!

@Heydiddlediddlethe yes exactly the same - week 2, day 2 of 5mg and very little suppression.
I’m very stressed at the moment, that might be contributing to?
we just have to hero going ??

It takes upto 72hrs to reach peak levels in your system. Also its half life is 5 days so it will wear off around then
