Before anyone comments about their take on plastic surgery - don't. Thanks.
I'm getting plastic surgery - lipo 360 + fat transfer in 2 weeks and I'm taking peptides in microdoses and I'm trying to figure out what I should stop t the surgery and start for the healing process and whats fine to continue taking.
I'm nervous that they could be contraindicated with what I'll be given (LOCAL anasthesia (not general), xanax, some kind of oxy, and a numbing shot for the whole body)
I know some can be good for the healing process but it seems Drs don't know much about them.
Here's the peptides I'm taking:
Injection Microdosing a GLP1 semiglutide 1x a week (CARGISEMA)
Injection Microdosing SS-31 daily for mitochondrial function
1 capsule of BPC-157 in the morning
And may start taking MOTSC Injection 1x a week in a microdose too
Also happy to be referred to other people to ask questions on this who may know more about it.

I recently discovered this audio book on Spotify. Tons of peptide data!

Holy fucking shit does this peptide turn me into a human / vacuum hybrid. The hunger benefit is exactly what I was looking for. This shits got me eating at least 1000 calories a meal now easily.
Even when I’m not feeling overly hungry I feel as though I’m eating so much more than what I could of done on that same level of “hunger” as before.
If I’m completely honest some days I was struggling to eat 3 decent meals before this. The change is so noticeable
I’ll probably keep updating this thread with anything else I notice. It’s my first day using so unsure on the sleep and recovery benefits as of now (will update in the morning)
Should this be taken in an empty stomach or with food?
Hi Team,
I’m on a course of Tirzepatide + sermorelin. Feeling great except I’m noticing I have an urgent need to pee like every 45mins to an hour and the volume is not a lot when I do.
Anyone else feeling this side effect?
I have some ghk-cu that came from a us manufacturer and is 99% purity. My main intended use was for topical cream but I have a lot of it and wondering if could use for injections. It appears lyophilized based on it being 10 grams and not having much volume but maybe that has no logic. How can I tell if it’s lyophilized and would I have problems injecting this if so? It comes from a medical manufacturer but I do not believe it’s coming off a sterile line. Would a filter help this?
Heya! I think we can’t ask for sources on here. So I’m not going to do that.
But I have never bought any and I was wondering if there was a way to test what you’re buying is legit or are there any sites that tests peptides?
I’ve read some cases on here of negative reactions. I don’t wanna inject some random BS into myself and make a problem worse, but I am also very interested in this topic.
Any tips on what to look for would be greatly appreciated.
It's a mixture of BPC-157 and TB-500 that I purchased in Thailand.
I transported it in a black baggie with one of those "re-freezable ice cube" things.
Now that I'm back in the US, I'm wondering if it's safe to continue using it, or if it's ruined.
I ordered MIC and B12 from AA awhile ago but sketched out because the labels looked off. I would like to research other MIC or Lipo shots. Any recommendations?
27M, recently diagnosed with acquired cutis laxa after a COVID infection. Frankly, I look like crap lol and it’s making me miserable. I’ve had some minor success mitigating the sagging with a combination of red light therapy, hyaluronic acid powder, and uralithin a, and the outer layer of my skin looks phenomenal. Unfortunately, I have no actual facial structure anymore. I do plan on pursuing surgery if I am deemed a candidate, but I wanted to try sub q GHK-CU with BPC-157 in the interim. I don’t have any issues giving myself injections (used to give myself allergy shots in high school but they didn’t seem to work lol), but my doctor showed me how to use everything and I didn’t have to mix anything myself obviously. Was hoping someone could point me in the direction of good beginner’s resources.
Thanks in advance!
For those of you that used BPC-157 after your surgery, how long did you use it? I'm almost 3 months out, however, still passive ROM PT. Hopefully will get order to start strengthening next week. ( full supraspinatus tear w/retraction, slap tear, bicep tightened)
Has anyone done any geometric dilution with raw peptide powders?
I'm trying to weigh out a very low amount of milligrams. I do have 0.1mg scale, but still isn't very consistent depending on the day I measure it.
What did you use? how successful were you?
Hello - I have used Selank/Semax via nasal spray. What other peptides are effective and often used with nasal spray? I would love to have a few more that way as up to 4-6 injections a day. Thanks in advance.
I'm curious where people fall in terms of general take-aways from their peptide use. Has it been amazing, awful, a big nothing sandwich? Kind of trying to exclude the GLP-1's from the peptide discussion here, as they're kind of their own animal.
Anyone see an issue stacking these two peptides? Thoughts I wanted to experiment with this combination.
Anyone here has gotten hormonal balance or hormonal help with peptides? Can you share pls
Hi, today was my first day using Tirz and I started with 2.5mg. 4 hours later, my methadone is starting wear off, and I’m scared. Apparently Tirz can have that effect on opioids. Will this happen every day? Did I just book a holiday to hell for a week? Please advise :( Thanks
Hey everyone,
I’ve been researching BPC-157 and TB-500, and I see a lot of praise for both when it comes to tissue healing and recovery. BPC-157 is often highlighted for its localized healing properties, while TB-500 seems to have more systemic effects.
What I’m trying to figure out is: 1. Are there specific advantages to using BPC-157 without TB-500, especially for localized injuries? 2. Does combining both create a significant synergy, or is it overkill in most situations? 3. Are there any cases where one is definitively better than the other, like for muscle tears vs ligament damage vs post-surgery recovery?
If you’ve used one, the other, or both, I’d love to hear your experiences and recommendations.
Anyone ever seen this available for research from any labs? Any reason why it wouldn't be available yet for research - maybe formula not out yet?
When I ordered my bpc-157 and tb4 I wanted to try it out and see how my body would react to it. I ordered 5mg/5mg injected twice a day and after 6 days I had nothing left. The first two injections I didn’t calculate as I should and injected a little bit more than what I planned but all was good thankfully, no side effects or anything like that. That’s why it only lasted for 6 days instead of 10.
I felt good on it, relaxed, a bit anxious because of the pinning part as it’s the first time I do injections but after a few times the anxiety got better. I had less pain in my leg and lower back where my injuries are, I felt that it was working and decided to order some more.
Now, the vials will arrive in 8 days, so I’ll be without for 8 days. Will this cause any issues? Are the healing properties slowing down now and once I start with the peptides again it will “speed up” the recovery again? I think another 10mg/10mg will be enough for me as I’m already feeling much better even though I just took it for a few days.
I can finally squat pain free again 😭
Recently bought 10mg of ipamorelin. Mixed it with 10ml of bac water (NaCl). Mixed it and put it in an unused nasal spray container. Can i screw it open and inject it? Or is that stupid?
Hi all,
I’ve used BPC/TB in the past for small niggles, I’m currently suffering with some mild pain under my armpit around the chest/tendon area.
What would be a good recommendation for this sort of injury?
Any interactions by mixing all 3?
Hey boys, just wondering if it’s safe to take older peptides that have been reconstituted. I tweaked my back recently & have some older peptides that have been sitting in one of those cheap plug in mini fridges. I’d want to take CJC/Ipamorelin blend, BPC 157/TB 500 blend and GHK-Cu. Is it dangerous at all (Chat GPT said it might be dangerous if the shit breaks down or something) or just the efficacy not as strong?
OMFG.. I can’t stop eating and I’m serious. Normally what I eat throughout the day lasts me until 5pm or so.. all that food is gone by Noon.. and then I’ll eat another dinner and then another good sized snack. I dunno guys.. may have to stop taking this cause my stomach is constantly growling.
Hi everyone. Long time lurker. My doctor just switched me from Semorilin to CJC-1295+Ipamorelin combo. Here’s my question—is CJC /IPA a relatively thick liquid? I diluted with 5ML of dilutent as instructed and when I fill with a 31g insulin syringe, it fills the syringe drop-by- drop. To draw .25ml (my dosage) takes maybe a minute. The Semorilin was thin as water. Just want to be sure I’m not missing something here. Thanks for your help!
