Understanding Dose Windows and Cycles

Unfair Team • January 8, 2026

Dose windows and cycle length often matter as much as compound choice for both outcomes and safety.

Why it matters

Timing controls exposure, and exposure controls both benefit and side effects. Morning and evening windows can produce very different responses for stimulants, calming agents, and sleep focused compounds. Cycle length then determines whether tolerance and fatigue build over time.

How to apply it

Set timing rules before day one and write them in plain language. Add stop rules for sleep disruption, GI distress, or persistent elevated heart rate. Review cycle length after each block rather than extending by default.

In Unfair

Unfair can anchor reminders to your defined windows and preserve cycle history so timing changes are visible during review.
