Merino wool v Rayon

I bought the sweater on the left 4 or 5 years ago, and I love it. It’s 100% merino wool. I saw the same brand has released the sweater on the right this year, and when I went to read the description before purchasing it, I saw it was 100% rayon. Is there any reason other than cost for this brand to be making fine-knit sweaters from rayon rather than wool? The sweater is currently on sale, but its full price was over $400. I don’t know enough to know if rayon is a perfectly fine substitute or not.

Sale bag restocking?

I decided to wait for the bag I want to drop to 25% off and unfortunately it sold out. It does say “Restocking Soon,” but that doesn’t make a ton of sense for a sale bag. Has anyone had luck with a sale bag actually restocking?

Water weight gain with no symptom abatement

My doctor prescribed me compounded testosterone cream after three months on estrogen and progesterone didn’t touch my brain fog and fatigue. My testosterone did test low. In the first 2.5 weeks on it, I put on 5 pounds. I stopped for a week and promptly dropped 2.5, and I talked to a doctor acquaintance who told me she had taken a class on HRT and thought it was water weight that would eventually fall off. So I started again, and now 3 weeks in I’m climbing up in weight steadily. Has anyone actually had the water weight gain taper off and disappear? It’s also not affecting the brain fog or fatigue yet, so I’m not getting any good benefits from it, only bad. Should I throw in the towel or give it more time?
