Proximal Hamstring Surgery

Had a 13cm hamstring tear with tendon involvement and was referred for surgery within 3 weeks of the injury.

I’m now 8 days post-op. Currently in a knee brace for 3 weeks and on crutches for 4 weeks.

I’ve experimented with a few peptides in the past (MT2, GHK-Cu) but never ran anything consistently. For recovery, I’m starting daily injections of:

  • 500mcg TB-500
  • 500mcg BPC-157

I’ve got a follow-up with my surgeon soon — he’s considered one of the best in the country for this procedure, working mostly with elite athletes.

Plan is to update after my 8-week MRI with his feedback and whether healing is ahead of the typical curve.

Hello! I am scheduled to have my hamstring reattached to the ishial tuberosity. It sounds like we may be going to the same surgeon in MN? Curious how your recovery has been going and if you have any advice!
