    Mod GRF: Insomnia and overstimulation

    Ahh, bummer. I'm going to try morning timing. I know that's not ideal according to the circadian rhythm, but want to give it a go and see

    Mod GRF: Insomnia and overstimulation

    Hey Jay, getting similar sleep disturbances from the Ipam/Mod Grf combo. Also on TRT. Did you ever find a resolution?

    Gonadorelin alternative to hCG - Kisspeptin a peptide that is not approved for compounding

    Frequent pulses is what the research studies use, yes. But is that what we need? This guy thinks differently. Does Gonadorelin need to be pulsed? @JA Battle what do you think of his reasoning? Is it possible that infrequent pulses are all that's needed to preserve minimum testicular function?

    Gonadorelin alternative to hCG - Kisspeptin a peptide that is not approved for compounding

    Ok, got off a call with Royal. They say that the blood tests showing LH is maintained is due to exactly what @Cataceous presumed: Royal is running labs within 1-2 hours of injecting Gonadorelin. So of course it drops precipitously after that timeframe until the next injection in a couple days...

    Gonadorelin alternative to hCG - Kisspeptin a peptide that is not approved for compounding

    Yea, it is perhaps reasonable to guess that high enough doses could theoretically provide coverage between the peaks and valleys. I wonder though if long-term exogenous GNRH agonists use has negative effects. The below studies suggest that Gonadorelin (at higher doses) will suppress...

    Gonadorelin alternative to hCG - Kisspeptin a peptide that is not approved for compounding

    Good question. 100 IUs a week, 50 at each injection. Not sure how much water is mixed with the powder.

    Gonadorelin alternative to hCG - Kisspeptin a peptide that is not approved for compounding

    Meds (T, AI and Gonadorelin), plus all standard labs and doc tele visits for $200/mo. They used to rx hCG, but say they've successfully used Gonadorelin since the change forced them to switch.

    Gonadorelin alternative to hCG - Kisspeptin a peptide that is not approved for compounding

    @Cataceous @Nelson Vergel Have you guys seen this? This clinic is offering Gonadorelin in place of hCG and posting labs showing that it indeed maintains LH. They don't mention frequency but I called and they are doing 2 (0.5ml) self-administered subcutaneous injections per week. Legit to...

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
