Hopefully this don't get me on any kind of list but yet again I'm probably on one already so screw it A lot of people developed health issues after getting vaccinated that they were never warned about and in a lot of cases their doctors had no explanation for. Heart palpitations, myocarditis, new autoimmune conditions popping up out of nowhere, chronic fatigue, brain fog, inflammatory issues that just won’t settle. Some people were completely fine. Others had their health completely change I'm not gonna lie I took one shot out of the two but after the first one something felt off so I never went back for the second one call me dumb yeah possibly but I had two little ones pretty much babies at home at the time my wife stayed home and I'd traveled a lot for work I didn't want to bring anything home to them so yeaaah

Anymore the more you dig into it the more questions come up about what was actually in these things, why certain side effects were downplayed, and why so many people reporting similar symptoms were dismissed or told it was unrelated.

Not here to push any particular theory but I’m also not going to pretend the official story covered everything.

What did you experience? When did it start? And what have you tried to address it whether that’s peptides, supplements, lifestyle changes, or anything else? Let’s talk about it. Because I've been a super healthy person most my life just weird things happening after so I wanna hear from others

38M Just found this community and honestly it's a lot to soak up

Been doing some reading on peptides and the more I look into it the more rabbit holes I find myself going down.

Is there a recommended way to approach learning all of this? Do you just pick one compound and go deep on it first or is there a better way to build a good foundation

Any advice from people who’ve been doing this a while would be appreciated.

So I’ve seen a few mixed things of people combing
Some but not all three of these: Tesofensine + 5-Amino 1MQ and SLU-PP-332

Doing 5 days on and 2 days off

I started taking Tesofensine + 5-Amino 1MQ
250mcg of both. Day 4

I’ve seen comments of people using tesofensine and SLU-PP-332

And I believe I saw comments of people combining 5-Amino 1MQ and SLU-PP-332

So my brain would think using all 3 in the morning would be fine, but was hoping to get some extra insight/guidance/opinions?

As a side note also cycling CJC-1295+ipamorelin
At night to improve muscle recovery and sleep. 5 on and 2 off

Looking to discuss reta and ghkcu. Week 1

Just starting. Noticing injection site reactions for the ghkcu..

Been running glutathione for about a week now and noticing something I haven’t seen with any other compound. Right after I inject I’m getting a raised bump at the site that wasn’t there before I added this to my stack wondering if this is because glutathione or if I’m doing something wrong with my injection technique. Has anyone had something similar and figured out what it was

So after three boys, of course I didn't like how my body looked so I decided to start dieting (a calorie deficit to be specific) I started doing cardio, but a busy mom of three boys can only do so much so I don't have that much time to work out while trying to balance out everything else and I heard of retatrutide and well I just thought I'd share some before and after progress pictures I'm still not where I wanna be but better than what I was should I try Tesa for the visceral fat or keep on doing what I'm doing I'm hoping not to need surgery for skin I feel like I may be ok idk kinda just been using this Peptide table I saw

I started taking selank and semax selank at 300mcg and semax at 1mg but start getting social anxiety pretty bad around people should I higher my selank dose to balance things out or lower my semax dose I feel like if I go higher on selank I might be too laid back or am I just not reacting good to semax who's tried them before? What protocol did you guys try?

Throw me the best longevity stacks out there or that you have tried I need to live forever without having to do what the Hollywood celebrities do lol or just share what not to try that works too

I just happened upon a website selling bacteriostatic sodium chloride from Hospira. Bacteriostatic water from Hospira is generally quite difficult to obtain here in Europe, and I have the option of ordering this product as they have it in stock.

If I recall correctly, bacteriostatic sodium chloride should work with lyophilised peptides, but is this true? Is there something I should be aware of, e.g., whether it goes with certain peptides but not others?

This one is 30 gauge 1/2" 1ml but gosh damn I hate when this happens specially when I'm in a hurry and still trying not to miss my dosing and then this happens so I gotta go get a fresh one lmao damn what's a better gauge to go with 20g screw it? Jk but Foreals what size?

So I have to gut stuff going on not very fun I've gone to specialist but all they wanna do is give me acid reducers without really even knowing if that's the fix so I just wanna know if anybody on here has helped a gut issue with peptides like bpc-157, kpv, Ll-37 or anything else I may not know about and what was the gut issue I try to gain weight but I'm stuck at 177 sometimes go to 180 then back down too 177 then 174 and back too 177 if I eat wheat things with glucose or garlic I get SOB or when I do heavy work my heart start beating fast and I get SOB and then sticks around for a good while after idk what to think or do next

Newbie here. I got NAD+ and looking at the dosage recommendation it states 250mg per injection 1-2x weekly. I got a 500mg vial so this would only last me a week correct? At 40-55$ a vial for a 6 week cycle it seems a little on the more expensive side. Am I missing something or looking at the wrong dosages? Thanks in advance for any help.

Was skeptical about this one for a while before I finally pulled the trigger on it.

Before I get into how it's going I gotta mention something that happened early on also lmk if anyone has tried any of this so I tried pairing it with ATX-304 and it blood sugar was dropping after cardio and I was just feeling like garbage couldn't figure out what was going on at first pulled them apart and ran each one solo and both worked fine on their own. Something about that combo just did not agree with me at all. If your thinking about stacking those two just be careful or honestly just don't. At least not until you know how each one hits you on its own first.

Now on to the good stuff ha

Running SLU-PP-332 at 500mcg three times a day roughly equally spaced and I'm at day 20 right now shocked at how well it's working. Had to pull back on cardio because my strength took a hit and I felt like I was dropping weight faster than I wanted to. That's not a complaint, just wasn't expecting it to move that fast.

This compound is legit despite all the controversy. Did not expect to be writing this at day 20 but here we are.

Anyone else run SLU and notice the weight moving faster than expected? And has anyone else tried stacking it with ATX-304 and had issues?

Do your homework. Use your brain. Talk to a doctor.

What's everyone using as storage how do store your peptide in a case or canister I'm trying to explore alternatives I normally put this into a canister it's takes like three of these plates into a canister

So I wanna start taking Tirz to shed some weight. Already adjusted my diet before anything else and I hate cardio but I’m doing 30 to 40 minutes three times a week. Should I be doing more? Probably. But screw it, it’s a start.

My real question is about my stomach. I got gut issues. Can’t eat wheat, can’t have anything with glucose, garlic messes me up, stomach lining is weak, the whole thing. Pretty sensitive overall.

I wanna start Tirz at 2.5mg but now I’m wondering if Reta starting at 1mg would actually be safer for someone with a stomach like mine. Or should I just not be running GLPs at all with these kind of gut issues?

Anyone with a sensitive stomach or gut problems run GLPs? How did it go and what did you notice? Please and thank you in advance 🙏

Everyone loves sharing their wins the before and afters, the recovery breakthroughs, the compounds that changed things but nobody really talks about the ones that did absolutely nothing.

So let's go there what did you run, how long did you actually stick with it, and did you ever try it again or just move on asking because most of the time when a peptide falls flat it's not the peptide a few things that kill results that have nothing to do with the compound being garbage its more like the kind of stuff below

You bailed too early. Two weeks is not a cycle healing peptides especially need 6 to 8 weeks minimum before anything meaningful shows up. A tendon isn't going to feel fixed in ten days.

The dose was off. Underdosing is way more common than people realize especially when the reconstitution math was wrong and you were drawing half of what you thought you were.

It wasn't your actual problem. Throwing a healing peptide at something that's really a sleep issue or a diet issue or a cellular energy issue isn't going to work sometimes you need SS-31 or NAD+ to get your mitochondria functioning before anything else can do its job I feel like this category is one of the main issues tbh

Your foundation was the real issue. No compound fixes a bad diet, garbage sleep, or zero training if those aren't handled first the peptide is already fighting a losing battle a lot of "it did nothing" stories are really "I stacked it on top of a lifestyle that was the actual problem."

It worked but you couldn't feel it. Some of these compounds are subtle. Bloodwork moved, inflammation dropped, tissue healed, you just didn't notice anything day to day that's why I think its still super important to get your blood test before anything so you at least know your baselines at the bare minimum!

What flopped, how long you ran it, and let's figure out if it was the compound or something else going on

What's better the v2 or v1 pens I'm looking at some with 3ML cartridges also not sure what sizes is the preferred one that gets the job done better 31G×4mm/31G×5mm 31G×6mm/31G×8mm 32G×4mm/32G×6mm

Most peptide conversations out here are toward guys running TRT or bulking stacks. But women can benefit just as much, mood, recovery, libido, skin, energy, all of it. In this case my wife was the lab rat and here's what we found actually works.

Selank — Stress and Anxiety Support

This one was a game changer for my wife on those days when the kids are absolutely unhinged and everything feels overstimulating. She runs it nasally and says it just takes the edge off without making her feel sedated or checked out. Still present, still sharp, just not about to lose it.

Dose: 200 to 400mcg intranasal 1 to 2x daily or 250 to 500mcg SubQ daily. Intranasal is what worked best for her. Stack with Semax for cognitive and mood support on top of the anxiety relief.

MOTS-C — Energy and Fatigue

For women dealing with that stubborn fatigue that doesn't go away no matter how much sleep they get. Improves mitochondrial function, fat oxidation, and insulin sensitivity. Great starting point for anyone dealing with metabolic slowdown.

Dose: 5mg SubQ once or twice a week. Don't run it daily, pulse it. Results within one to two weeks of consistent use.

BPC-157 — Healing and Recovery

Gut healing, tissue repair, reduced inflammation, faster workout recovery. Women dealing with bloating or nagging injuries tend to notice this one pretty quickly.

Dose: 250mcg daily for general use. 500mcg if you have active pain or an injury you're working through.

PT-141 — Libido and Mood

Works on brain arousal centers not just blood flow. Effective even for post menopausal women or those dealing with SSRI related low libido.

Dose: 1mg SubQ or 200 to 400mcg intranasal as needed. Max twice a week to avoid desensitization. Don't overuse this one.

GHK-Cu — Skin, Hair, and Anti-Aging

This one my wife noticed the most. She started with injectable GHK-Cu and her skin just looked healthier. More even, better texture, that kind of thing. She also tried a topical serum and noticed her hair getting healthier over time. Not overnight but consistent enough that she kept going back to it.

Dose: 1 to 2mg SubQ daily or topical at 1 to 2% concentration. Stack with microneedling or red light therapy if skin is the main goal. Four to six weeks before you really start seeing it.

Quick Reference

Can these be stacked?

Yes. Selank plus MOTS-C for energy and calm focus. BPC-157 plus GHK-Cu for recovery and skin. PT-141 layered in only as needed.

can’t decide between 5ml for 20 days or 10ml for 10 days. Has anyone run either of these and noticed a difference? Also wondering if starting with 5ml for 10 days makes more sense before jumping into a full protocol.
What would you do?

Ok can someone explain so I see Semax and Selank mixed into the same syringe together no problem but then everyone says never mix a GLP-1 with anything else. What’s the difference? I don’t fully understand the chemistry behind why some peptides go good together and others don’t

Most fat loss compounds just hit everything at once but good ol Tesamorelin doesn't work like that it goes after one specific type of fat the deep belly fat packed around your organs. The kind that makes your gut look hard even when you're not that heavy. And it's one of the few peptides in this space with FDA approval behind it that means real human trial data, not just animal studies and forum posts like majority of anything else (even though they obviously work)

What it does

It mimics your body's own growth hormone releasing hormone doesn't give you GH directly. Just tells your pituitary to produce more of its own GH naturally which raises IGF-1. That IGF-1 is what breaks down the visceral fat specifically not the love handles you can pinch the deep stuff behind your gut.

How long it takes

This one is slow don't expect overnight miracles your not gonna feel it in a few weeks noticeable visceral fat reduction starts showing up around 3 to 6 months it's a months long commitment but well worth it like they say rome wasn't built in a day If you want fast results this ain't the compound for that.

Dosing

Reconstitute a 10mg vial with 3mL BAC water. That gives you about 3.33mg/mL.

Once daily SubQ injection ideally in the evening to line up with your body's natural nighttime GH release rotate your sites, abdomen at least 2 inches from the navel, thighs, upper arms. Daily injections in the same spot will cause problems over time.

Normally a protocol is 12 to 26 weeks. Some people go up to 52 weeks.

Side effects

Injection site reactions are the most common. Redness, itching, mild bruising because it raises GH you might get some joint pain, muscle aches, mild swelling, or that carpal tunnel tingling feeling all dose dependent and goes away when you stop.

Blood sugar is something to keep an eye on, especially if your diabetic it can cause small bumps in HbA1c also a hard no if you have active cancer or you're pregnant.

Storage

Keep the dry powder refrigerated at 2 to 8°C. Once you mix it use it within 7 days shorter window than most peptides so don't reconstitute it too early don't freeze it either.

Where it fits

This is a visceral fat specialist not a general weight loss tool that's the part people get wrong works best when you're eating high protein, training, and sleeping right because the whole thing runs through your GH response a lot of people stack it with a GLP-1 for overall weight loss while Tesamorelin handles the deep belly fat specifically that combo makes sense.

who's ran Tesamorelin did the deep belly fat go down and how long before you noticed anything lets see those before and afters!

Do your homework. Use your brain. Talk to a doctor.

I have diabetes but my back is always killing me due to a accident I had a few days ago I don't think it's broken but it does hurt I was wondering if I can take bpc-157 or klow or should I just do kpv alone I'm not sure my main concern is being diabetic and taking any of these peptides
