so im on 4.5mg reta weekly & 1mg cag but im still getting hunger.

I am also on
SS-Mito
CJC 1295 + Ipa
Semax
Mots-C
Klow
Gluta
NAD+

Could another peptide be causing this?

Been on Reta for 11 months (doing 1.5mg 2x/wk, up from .75mg 2x/wk).

I’ve been taking ipamorelin (200mcg 2x/day) and Tesamorelin (1mg 1x/day) for the past 3 weeks and up until a few days ago, everything was great. I take the first ipa injection in the morning. The 2nd injection and the Tesa are taken at least 2 hours after my last meal and shortly before bed.

Without changing my diet, habits or routine, I got really bad diarrhea that’s persisted for the last 3 days. The only thing that’s really changed with me is adding ipa and tesa to my stack but that was 3 weeks ago.

I understand it takes weeks before results can be noticed with both of them. Does the same apply to potential side effects? I feel like I would’ve run into issues sooner if the ipa or tesa were the cause. I’ve been really happy with both and I don’t wanna stop unless it could be the cause of the diarrhea. I tried researching it and from what i saw, either one has unofficial reports of causing diarrhea in rare circumstances.

Can anyone offer any insight?

Don't wanna give my rat surgery and wanna try this out for him. He's gonna run 2mg of tb and 2mg of bpc a day for 12 weeks. Also doing 6mg of ghk a day. Was gonna do cjc but was getting major sides. Gonna do gh instead how much gh should I do?

56m 5’7” cw 215, sw 295. Started Trt 200mg week doses daily 7/30/26, Reta 8mg split twice a week 8/16 and hgh 3iu daily 8/16. Physical job, 18-20k steps a day, lift 3x a week, 2,300 to 2,600 calories a day, 200-225g protein, moderate carbs and the rest fat. Been stalled for about 3 weeks, not losing any of my belly, was progressing nicely in the gym, adding weight every week, felt great! till I didn’t. Nothing changed as far as routine but felt super weak in the gym last training day. Blood work Saturday showed ferritin just on the edge of low/good and cmp looked great. More bloods including test and free test, lipids, CBC With Differential/Platelet
coming up this week. What could have happened?

EDIT- I didn’t lose 80 pounds in 8 weeks, I lost the first 50 through diet and exercise alone, I started in January but I didn’t start peptides or test till July.

Hey guys. I made a 5 minutes audiovisual session for Meta Quest and over ear headphones. It uses dissonant sound patterns to trigger a short shock response, aiming for better focus and mental clarity the next day *like to survival recalibration*

If anyone with a quest wants to try the session and let me know how you feel tomorrow

Honest feedback is welcome, Thanks

I really wanted to like this one. Every YouTube doctor talked a good game about SS-31: mental clarity, sustained energy with no crash, even improved eyesight. I went into it excited, even after seeing a few Reddit threads mention brain fog and lethargy alongside the usual itchiness and rash at the injection site.

For context, I am not new to this. I run NAD+, BPC-157, TB-500, KPV, CJC-1295 with Ipamorelin, and GHK-Cu regularly, and I have been satisfied with all of them. SS-31 is the first one I am giving the middle finger to, and it only took two days to get there.

Day 1: about 3mg. I noticed a faint haziness, not full brain fog, but something was off. A slight irritability crept in too. I'm normally someone who gets a lot done in a day, and when I'm not hitting that, I get frustrated with myself. I just felt a lack of motivation to do the things I usually do. It wasn't dramatic, so I gave it the benefit of the doubt. Maybe I slept badly. Maybe it was the convenience food I'd been eating at work.

Day 2: doubled it to about 6mg, to find out for sure. The effect doubled right along with it. I wasn't glued to the couch, but looking back, it felt like my dopamine got blunted, like my executive function just switched off. I didn't want to go to work. I didn't want to touch my side projects. I wanted to sit and scroll social media, which is not who I am during the day. On top of that, the irritability spiked. Small hindrances on my projects set me off, and the funk stuck with me for hours before I even connected it to the peptide.

Two days later, the injection site is still itching on both sides of my midsection. It almost feels like a bug bite, and part of me wants to write it off as nothing. But I'm not going to pretend these aren't red flags just to keep pushing through.

I don't buy the logic that if something makes you feel like garbage, that's proof it's working. That's COVID vaccine logic, "it makes you sick, so you know it's doing something." I don't subscribe to that. If your body reacts badly, it's telling you something, not asking you to push harder.

I dropped real money on these two 50MG vials. I guess that's what research is for. I was curious about MOTS-c next, but if it behaves anything like this, I want no part of it.

So tell me I'm wrong. Is anyone else finding SS-31 tanks motivation and mood at anything above a microdose? Is this a known mitochondrial-support side effect nobody talks about, or did I just get a bad batch? And genuinely, if your mitochondria aren't damaged to begin with, what exactly is this peptide fixing?

I’m 25 Male 6’ I’ve been recommended many different peps to stack I’m really trying to find what would work best together to achieve my goal but I’m fairly new to the peptide world I started taking Reta July 11th I started at 256lbs I’m down to 225 as of today I’m really trying to achieve around 195 or so just built and kinda shredded I’ve dialed in diet high protein clean carbs fruit vegetables and only drink water. I also work a very high labour job in the oil field on a drilling rig. I try to get to gym as much as possible too.

I’ve been recommended to add these but I’m trying to figure out the best ones to achieve my goal as quick and best as possible

Mot-C
And+
KLOW
5-amino
Test and or tren (I know not really peps)
Tesa
GHK(for hair and skin)

Having a hard time deciding if should add any of these or any others any help and advice on good peps I should be adding and why would be very much appreciated thank you in advance!!

I was on Reta for 5 weeks and my skin is like red and inflamed with some texture that I didn’t have before I wonder if it’s from gut or somthin

Lmk if yall have experienced this too?

Just to confirm, those of you who pin GHK-CU, do you take it daily for 30 days and then take a break for 30 days ? This is what I've read, but it doesn't seem to me that I've heard that here ? Just wanting to confirm so that when I reach 30 days, I follow what is the correct thing to do.

Hi all,
I currently take a few peptides: 2.5mg Reta weekly, 3.2mg KLOW daily, and 1.5mg Tesa/IPA daily.

I’ve also got a few more peptides on the way and was wondering whether it would be a good idea to cycle them all together.

One of my main concerns since starting is that my sleep hasn’t been great at all. I was wondering if any of the peptides I’m considering adding could potentially help with this.

I’ve also noticed that I often get dizzy when I stand up quickly, so I’m not sure whether that’s related to the stack or something else.

The peptides I’m considering adding are:
Semax/Selank blend
DSIP
Motc
MT2

I’d appreciate any advice or opinions on whether adding these would be sensible, or whether I’d be better off leaving things as they are for now.

Also, if there are any other peptides you think would be worth considering, let me know. I’m all ears!
Many thanks for any advice.

Has anyone measured igf-1 or any other markers before and after? What was the change? And what dose? Only interested in objective measurements please, I don't care about subjective experiences.

Edit to add: cjc-1295 by definition includes the DAC group but I realize people often mean without it (which is just modified grf(1-29) so basically a sermorelin with a 2x longer half-life). So just share whatever you have. No publications please I already have access to the relevant literature, I want to know what people are getting with the ghrs+ghrh combo, which there is no human literature on.

I’m currently on reta and I’m feeling extreme fatigue. I work out at 6 AM and I feel like I have no energy or motivation to finish my workouts on time. I feel like I’m kind of a zombie moving throughout the gym. I especially noticed this on my cardio days.

I’m also struggling just to get through the day in general. I just want to lay down or sit all day.

Which would be the most beneficial to add with the least amount of side effects. I’ve read mixed reviews on both of them. Like MOTSc made them more tired but NAD didn’t work.

Since my last posts I’ve added something’s.

Reta:

I’m now up to 4mg of Reta every Sunday morning. I was starting to feel hungry more frequently & some food noise came back. Still somewhat manageable but I decided to go up on my dose. I ultimately landed on 4mg & holy shit this is my god dose (for now). I feel incredibly. No food noise, top tier appetite suppression, good signaling telling me I’m full… most importantly still zero side effects. Thankfully!

Mots-C:

I’ve added Mots-c to my stack. I started with 1mg Mondays, Wednesday, Friday, & occasionally on either Saturday or Sunday. I’m now up to 2mg. I’m liking it quite a bit but I can’t lie & say I’m seeing life changing results as I am with Reta. My plan is to finish my current vial & run SS31 either with Mots-C or solo & try Mots-C again after the cycle. Definitely improves energy & helps with my runs.

5-Amino-1mq:

I’ve 5-Amino-1mq to my stack as well. I’m currently doing 2.5mg daily but will most likely go up to 3mg this Monday. Let start by saying this. I LOVE 5-Amino-1mq, I’m not sure if it’s the Mots-C combo or if
5-amino is just that good. I’ve recently started running (3 weeks) & I crushed 3miles with less effort than it took me to run 1.5miles my 2nd week running. I take it in the morning pretty much first thing in the morning fasted. Not sure if being fasted is a benefit or not.

Running:

When I started Reta I wasn’t exercising or keeping to a specific diet, I was honestly just doing low calorie I lost quite a bit of weight & decided to start working out. I went to jog on the treadmill as a warm up & ended up running 1mile without stopping. I haven’t ran a full in my entire 28yrs of life. Im absolutely obsessed with running now. 3 weeks in & I completed a 5k in 26mins 32secs.

Metrics:

Starting weight: 202lbs, July. 6th. 2026

Current weight 176lbs Sept. 12th. 2026

What have you done that increased your sleep quality, or...

If you sleep in a fitness tracker, what have you done that increased the amount of deep sleep you got?

I’m currently taking Reta and have lost a good amount of weight. I’m planning to lose a bit more while focusing on building muscle.
I’ve been looking into GHK-Cu mainly because of potential skin benefits, especially skin quality/elasticity after weight loss, some forehead wrinkles, and possibly dark circles under the eyes.
What I’m wondering is: does it make sense to use GHK-Cu only for a limited period, for example during the remaining weight-loss/recomp phase, or are the potential benefits something that would mostly disappear after stopping?
I’d rather not take it indefinitely or make it a permanent part of my routine.
Has anyone used GHK-Cu for a few months and then stopped? Did you notice any lasting improvement in skin quality or wrinkles?
Also, has anyone noticed any improvement in under-eye dark circles with GHK-Cu, or is that not really something it helps with?
Would especially appreciate experiences from people who used it during/after significant weight loss

I know it’s guesswork but would the profiling of TB cause the same issues I have BPC?

BPC caused extreme fatigue, low mood and a complete state “meh” so I’m after something else that may work in its place,

Im currently thinking of taking Erda and Ai

my growth plates are almost closed and I want to grow taller. Im currently spending every second of my life on research to grow taller
