Click counting on Wegovey

I changed from MJ to W a couple of months ago due to the price increase and have been on 1mg so far, felt like I need to increase my dose so have got a 1.7 for my jab today and would like to know if anyone has done click counting to increase the dose more gradually and, if so will the pen allow me to use it more than 4 times or will it lock up after 4 goes even if there's liquid left in it? I still have lots of spare needles from being on MJ for the best part of a year.

I've click counted to reduce my dose on wegovy as it was too strong initially. In the 1.7mg pen its 75 clicks in total. You can find wegovy click charts on reddit. It doesn't lock after 4 times, like mj it's based on max clicks or the depth of the plunger. It locks after 306 clicks or 4 plus 6 extra as I tried to turn it after 4 doses but there is an extra 0.25ml at end of a pen.
Why don't you just jab 1.7mg?

I'm a bit worried about jumping from 1 straight to 1.7 as I'm getting a bit of an upset stomach for the first couple of days after taking the 1mg so thought maybe an approximate 1.35 dose before moving up to 1.7 might be an idea. W definitely doesn't seem to be suppressing my appetite or blocking the food noise as much as MJ so want to try a stronger dose to see if it makes a differenc. I've lost 6 stone so far but still have a long way to go.
