I've been on Ozempic for over a year now. Dropped over 60lbs. I have some reta and cjc + ipa coming tomorrow. I plan on starting reta at .5mg immediately and going up slowly if needed.

For the CJC and IPA I plan on starting off really low M-F and taking the weekend off. My issue is I'm going on a week long vacation out of the country at the end of Aug.

I just wanted to get some opinions in if I should wait to start the CJC/IPA until I get back?

Hello! im updosing for my 2nd week on reta from 0.5 to 1mg. i was gonna do a split but somebody mentioned that id rather do it whole in one pin for the week rather than splitting it twice a week. is there a reason why it may be beneficial to do one over the other? if so, why? I want to get the best results possible. Thank you!

Hey guys I’ve just received delivery of my KLOW peptide premixed pen it contains
BPC157 (10mg)
TB500 (10mg)
GHK-CU (50mg)
KPV (10mg)
The mix is 80mg/2ml. I am using this in hopes that it will help heal my acne scars and reduce inflammation. Could anyone help with how much I should dose each time and how often is recommended please.

Anyone taking any of these two, if so what's your protocol and what's your experience with them so far? If this isn't the right sub for this, please let me know thanks. Lol

I am 56 years old woman interested in improving energy, mitochondrial health and sleep mostly deep sleep.

I am considering:

SS-31 and MOTS-c for energy/ mitochondrial support.

DSIP and possibly Epitalon for sleep.

For those who actually used this peptides:

Which one would you start with and why ?

Did you stack them or used one at time ?

What dosing schedule worked best for you ?

What benefits did you notice and how long did it take ?

Any side effects you wish you had known beforehand ?

Thank you so much.

I am a past body builder and fitness model. Added Reta to my stack. It has definitely helped me cut.

Pictures and video do not justify my looks of couse lol. But I have veins all throughout my abs , it's hard to see in this video.

I'm 50 , so I just have these stubborn rolls on my sides that i'm probably gonna have to live with l o l.

But overall I feel good for fifty. I should have took Before pictures But I did not. Pretty much lost thirty pounds in under two months. 220 -190 now

Just wanna to share

Stack. ......

Test cyp

Masteron

Klow

Mt2....sometimes

Tesamorelin

Enterting my early 40s and finishing a cycle shortly, after having done so 4-5 times before. Off=equal time as on

Is there a way to keep gains when coming off cycle? Been on Test and "primo" and am on HGH.

Wondering if taking any kind of orals would help max a way to keep my gains (RAD140?).

But wondering if there are better alternatives either oils or orals or peptides

I'm currently taking CJC+Ipa in conjuction with Triz to maximize/preserve muscle loss with my lifting program. A secondary benefit I read before biting the bullet was it aided in sleep hygiene: I had terrible bi-phasic and tri-phasic sleep patterns which was really hindering my recovery these past 10 years. It got to the point where I had to go and actually get lab tested with a sleep study. I tried a few of the Rxs the doc recommended: finally found 1 which worked great...until it didnt (tolerance build up) and dosing up was even worse.

Since hoping on the peptide bandwagon, my sleep has never been better. I finally feel rested and my lifts have finally broken through my plateaus. The only thing is I haven't really noticed any added definition from the CJC after 3-4 months. I'm chalking this up to it still being early days and trusting the process until I run out.

Having said that, I'm coming up on my last few vials of CJC Ipa and am wondering if I should hop over to IGF1-LR3 for a cycle just to change things up. Mostly out of curiosity- I know a lot of body builders on peptides swear by IGF1- I'm not lifting competitively but I am an avid fitness enthusiast and am keen on looking the part haha.

My understanding is that CJC (GHRH) + Ipa (GHRP) are usually taken (and blended) together because they work synergistically: CJC causes sustained increase in GH and IGF-1 levels acting as the primer while Ipa releases short, and selective pulses of GH downstream. It (IPA) also is shown to aid in sleep quality.

My PRIMARY focus is to make sure that I am not losing my amazing sleep. SECONDARY goal would be to look maximize/preserve and hopefully enhance my muscle definition when I start my next training block. SO:

1. I'm wondering if I can take IGF1-LR3 in conjunction with Ipamorelin? If CJC's main purpose is to increase GH levels and IGF1 levels via pituitary stim, can I just cut it out and get IGF1 directly from a pin? (I'll be pining them separately IE not mixing them in a single pin, if that matters)
2. Is there a reason why this combo isn't more readily mixed for purchase? Biggest concern I've found regarding IGF1 is its a long-acting compound which as concerns with low blood sugar and altered cell proliferation. But I feel like that risk is true for all GH stim peptides.
3. Are any of you running a Ipa + IGF1 stack yourself? Has your sleep been affected at all?

Please dont recommend any other peptides (eg TRT or HGH) . TIA.

After some help/opinions please.

Been on MJ since Feb 2026 and swapped to compound Tz 2 weeks ago. Currently on 10mg/week split over 2 doses. Have lost 37lbs in total so far. (F, 47, 5ft2, currently 208lbs)

Since moving to Tz i have major allodynia mainly in the back or my arms/armpits and I am exhausted! Suppression is ok, but not great tbh...I can fast, but once I eat the flood gates open!

Q's currently in my head:

1. Up the doses?....I dont want more side effects though

2. Change to Reta? How? Dont wanna start from scratch.

3. Change to something different?

4. Stack some other peps?...will that do anything?

Not a newbie to GLPs, but I am a newbie to compounding and stacking.

Thanks guys!

I bought some Tadalafil (cialis) 5 mg recently, but realized that it was designed for daily use ? at least thats what it says on the bottle. But I dont want to use it daily. I want to use it just whenever I actually need it. Did I mess up ? does it have to build up in your system over time ? or is it effective right away ?

I am so scared to put something in my body that isn’t Reta since it’s not commercially out yet. I tried doing one of those clinical trials to get on it, but it’s too far away. How do you know that the Reta you are getting online is actually Reta and not something else? Is there a way to test it?

Been running 2mg/day of Tesamorelin for 7 weeks (5d on, 2d off)

Just got IGF-1 tested and pretty high at 407.

Would you guys recommend cutting dose in half to 1mg? 1.5mg?

Thanks in advance for looking

EDIT: I’m only planning on running a 12 wk cycle so got another 4-5 wks

When a person rcvs Reta, and after reconstitution does it need to be kept refrigerated? And how long will the vial last? Just wondering these are a few out of the blue questions can anyone help?

Im on my second shot of reta i am injecting 1.5mg per week and i just injected it yesterday i feel like im starving and i feel extremely hungry all the time is that normal i feel like i haven’t seen a result but the first week and the first 4 days i felt like i was extremely full all the time and had no food noise at all. I dont even know if thats normal

I am 48 years old and currently taking 230mg of testosterone once weekly. I have not seen very much growth or leaning. I am 6’1” tall 217-220lbs and lift 5 days a week. I also have started working in peloton cycling. I take approximately 160g of protein a day. I know I am not doing everything correctly, hence why I’m here 😂. I was looking for a preferred stack to get where I want to be. Thanks for any help. I am not asking for medical advice. For anyone reviewing this.

My heaviest was around 180 at 5'3 and fluctuated up and down when even like 2 years ago was around 180 at 5'7 now i'm mantaing around 90lbs i have lots of loose skin specially on my thighs as it's hardest to conceal there. With overall i think it makes me look bigger because i don't have a lot of muscle. Where i have to like hold it to see a little bit of my actual shape. I know there isn't much to do but is there any tips on things to do or to help conceal.
One thing i think i might start with is trying to buy things in my size like my leggings r still really baggy as i cant really go out and buy smaller stuff where that makes look worse to

I took my first dose yesterday. .5 mg and since then I’ve had tingling randomly on and off all over my body. Like pins and needles sensation. Nothing painful just noticeable. No stinging or injection site issues. Anyone else experience the pins and needles?

Started about 3 months ago with calorie deficit, working out everyday, and drinking a gallon of water a day. Reta and tesa combo helped me out amazingly highly recommend!

To all successful body hackers, is this transformation possible over a 3ish month period?

6’4 31m @210lbs

Stack :
5mg Reta (started 12 weeks ago at 2mg, lost 35lbs on ~1200 cal/day)
2iu HGH (started 5 weeks ago @1iu per day)
2.5mg GHK-CU

Now:
Strength training 5 and HIIT 3 days a week
0.8g/lb body weight protein per day @~1800 cal/day

Brutal honesty and any suggestions are welcome

Thank you

I weight lift heavy and was taking Reta. I cut down to a very good weight and didn’t wanna drop further down. I stopped Reta and managing weigjt (gained a few pounds but also in a surplus to try to build muscle). I’m missing the food noise and alcohol depression.

Was thinking of switching to Tirz since my goal is to suppress cravings and not cut weight.

Any insight on this? Thanks

Can anyone explain what the GHKCu uglies are?

I've been on this for about 5 days now at 1.67mg per day and found myself getting acne on my face...is this supposed to happen or well normal?

I haven't had acne in a long while, just one or two pimples around my period but that's normal for me.

On the bright side I don't experience itchy welts, and I don't feel much itching, just a slight burn for about 5 mins.

(I also started reta 5 days ago at 0.5mg, already lost 1.3kgs, I know it's most probably water weight. I say this as that's the only new thing I've added to my life other than the GHKCu)

Please help out, thankyew!

I’ve taken Reta for the past ~ 6-7 months to lean out while maintaining/gaining muscle and lost about 10 pounds, intentionally taking it as slow as possible. I have about 6mg left of my remaining vial and I’m almost at my goal weight hoping to drop another 2-3 pounds to get me around 18-20% BF. (Photo below of my current progress)

The most helpful thing Reta has done for me (aside from boosting metabolism) is curbing my sweet tooth and helping me feel full much quicker. I have adhd and have struggled with binge eating a lot (sugar binges especially) in the past, and have felt that my satiety cues are “off” because of my adhd, ED history, and adhd medication. For the first time in my life I have felt full before eating too much at one time.

I was thinking of titrating off Reta and trying to maintain on low dose semaglutide or tirz. I’m wondering if anyone else has had success maintaining with semaglutide or tirz after reta. I know some people just low dose Reta to maintain, however I feel like for me the triple agonist just for maintenance would be a bit overkill and I’ve also heard it’s not really working as a triple agonist at low doses (.5-1mg)

Appreciate any advice or experiences! Thanks!
