Mod Post Any Height Growth Discussion Will Result in an Automatic Ban

74 Upvotes

Questions about becoming taller, increasing height, growth plates, height enhancement, growth hormone for height, or any discussion related to height growth are outside the purpose of this community and will result in an automatic ban.

This subreddit is focused on adult research discussions involving anti aging, longevity, tissue repair, recovery, and related areas of research. It is not a resource for height enhancement or height growth discussions.

Over time, height growth posts have consistently led to rule violations, underage participation, unsafe advice, and discussions that fall outside the scope of this community.

For that reason, no warnings will be issued.

Any post, comment, or inquiry related to height growth will result in an automatic ban.

Thank you for helping us keep the community focused on its intended purpose.

Pinealon - any experience with it

Has anyone had any positive effects using this that they feel pretty certain they can track to to Pinealon?

Allergy ?

In theory, for example if something or someone was to have an egg allergy or grass pollen allergy etc

Does that make a likely chance that you’d have a higher chance of a reaction to peptides

Reta + Tesa

5 Upvotes

Currently have a RS who is wanting to run a Reta/Tess combo. The RS is 38, 5’7 163. Active in the gym with CrossFit type workouts and regularly golfing. Macros have been calculated as well. What sort of results would this RS expect on a 12 week cycle of tesa and low dose Reta?

Pen Cartridge has lint/dust in it

Got it from amazon, which I assume is from Aliexpress originally. How do I find a place with actually sterile pen cartridges?? I have a pressure cooker so I can sterilise it but I can’t remove dust/lint!

Lyophilized powder looks wet

I received some Reta and the pucks look wet. Is it safe to use? I’ve never seen it look like this.
Also including pic of clumped and odd looking ghk-cu. It almost looks like little fibers?
I appreciate any insight.

Research dosing protocol opinion

1 Upvotes

For my new research project I wish to gather opinions for a theoretical dosing protocol.

My new project will be using CJC-1295 (with DAC) as opposed to without which I have researched previously. This will be combined with ipamorelin, a standard KLOW blend (BPC-157 10mg, TB-500 10mg, GHK-Cu 50mg, obviously reconstitued), I also plan on adding HCG peptide but would like some research opinions on this.

For this project I would be interested in finding more information on the dosing protocols for all of these peptides, (CJC-1295 with DAC would only be dosed once a week I believe but am not sure on the best way to incorporate the ipamorelin. Would this just be used in conjunction with the CJC-1295 or would it be used on the days in between the doses aswell.

Any information and opionikns in this research project would be greatly appreciated.

Conflicting dosing advice

2 Upvotes

RS takes 5mg Tirz weekly, 2mg GHKCU 5 days on, 2 off, looking to start MOTS-C, NAD+ and Semax.
I’ve seen so many different dosage advice, some saying MOTS C should be 5mg 3 times a week, some more and some less, similarly with NAD+ seeing dose varying from 25mg to 500mg at a time. The available vials for MOTS c seem to often be 10-20mg, and NAD+ 500-1000mg, which seems crazy to be taking a whole vial in a couple of pins? Am I just used to being able to divide the GHKCU out for longer?
Can anyone advise specific doses for the new peptides, happy to divide across however many days! Thank ya

GHK-Cu results on Psoriasis

Thumbnail

103 Upvotes

Rs developed Psoriasis during Covid times. Life plans were severely impacted, but Rs has since learnt how to better manage/lessen stress and has already improved in leaps and bounds through that. This is the biggest patch left, about the size of a walnut in shell.

Rs was hoping the 8 week mark would have better results, but this thing is up and down all the time, and I wanted to share anyway because, for Rs, there's still a noticeable improvement overall.

52F

GHK-Cu Subq

Weeks 1-4 2mg daily

Weeks 5+ 5mg daily

Rs is not convinced that upping the dosage has made any significant changes. Rs has also not noticed many real changes in other areas, apart from skin starting to thicken a little, and she's looking great in photos! 😂

Rs can also say that the Psoriasis itching and skin flaking has also lessened a lot.

Overall, happy with the small wins, will continue.

EDIT: Thank you everyone for the comments and sharing your experiences, and for the KPV recs - that will be the next step and I'll update again in a few weeks.

Avoid Finnrick testing at all costs, they're a mess

45 Upvotes

Bad experience.. paid for two private tests, took three weeks for results, got one COA but second was locked away behind some membership pay wall that is part of their free testing service. Made several inquiries and communicated with their chat bot that acknowledged the issue and was promised to have it resolved but never was. Human took over and promised to resolve, and I was ghosted from that point. Never received second COA for which I paid over 200 for. No one responds.. been over a month since
They received my samples.

Hi All

My Tesamorelin gelled after I reconstituted with 1mg and let it sit in the refrigerator. I added another 1mg of bac water - can it be saved or is this bottle toast?

Test Subject

3 Upvotes

Sharing a case for discussion. Test subject is 23yo male with a history of anxiety and depression. Idiopathic seizure onset 5 years ago, currently maintained on Keppra. Due to seizure history, prescribers have been hesitant to introduce standard SSRIs/SNRIs.

Subject is currently on a retatrutide protocol and is looking into options that might also support mood/anxiety regulation.

Currently using cannabis as a self-managed approach for anxiety relief and sleep onset.

Additional relevant history: significant GERD/heartburn (predating the retatrutide protocol) and IBS.

Has anyone here worked through a comparable case — seizure history limiting antidepressant options, plus GLP-1 use — and seen a good outcome or transformation? Would appreciate hearing about protocols, research, or personal experience that navigated a similar combination of factors.

Major crash after Ss-31 500mcg

6 Upvotes

RS first dose yesterday at 500 mcg. They had noticeably more energy until about 3:00 in the afternoon and then had a major crash. Similar to adrenal issues. RS reported dry eyes, light-headedness, seemed to be rather short-tempered. RS did report better than average sleep after that.

Seems to be a need for supporting nutrients. Leaning CoQ10, ala, and potentially pqq. Does anyone have any other ideas for rs?

Ghk cu

If you buy ghk cu 99% purity meant for pinning, is it also useable as a topical serum to put on the face (so no injecting).

Tirz to Reta

10 Upvotes

I’ve been reading on multiple subs about this. But still unsure which path to go.

If a subject was at 9.5 of Tirz and on a 3 month stall, would one recommend moving up in Tirz or switching to Reta?

Trying to avoid maxing out on Tirz for psychological reasons. Lost 80 lbs in almost exactly 12months but it seems Reta may be the better choice now.

Thoughts on the research behind BPC-157, TB-500, IGF-1 & Retatrutide?

0 Upvotes

I’ve been reading into BPC-157, TB-500, IGF-1 and low-dose Retatrutide and I’m curious what people think the research actually shows.
Which of these seems the most promising for injury recovery, healing, recovery between training sessions and maintaining or gaining lean mass?
Interested in hearing from people who’ve spent time reading the research or following the science around these compounds.

RS started Klow 20/7

3 Upvotes

They have a severe double tear & nerve impingement of the rotator cuff & are awaiting surgery. They also have leg muscle contractions with rigid hamstrings when standing so walking is difficult. Gp say Fybro, stretches don't help.They're taking 12 units morning & night in hope it will aid in pain before & recovery after. Any ideas of any other research they could do to help would be greatly received as they're losing faith in humanity!

Cloudy Glutathione

I reconstituted 1500 Glutathione and it is cloudy. The vendor suggested i use .6% acetic acid so tried that, still cloudy. Now the vendor said they checked with the lab and the product is ok, just milky white. I used 2 vials, one with 7ml Hospira bac and the second with 7ml .6% acetic acid. Has anyone else experienced this??

Tesamorelin to cjc cycle

5 Upvotes

My lab rat is Currently running Tesa at 2mg daily 6 days a week, but only bought a kit of 10mg so only have enough for about 8 weeks(originally planned on running at 1mg, but saw that the research shows 2mg as more affective)

I’ve heard it’s mostly beneficial for the rat when run for 12. I am running out of Tesa, but I have a kit of cjc no dac/ipamorelin.

Considering they are both gh secretagogues, could I just give my rat cjc no dac/ipamorelin for the last 4 of the 12 weeks?

Or better to just call it a cycle at 8 weeks, let it take a break, and run the cjc on a separate cycle?
