Sermorelin to help with lipodystrophy?

I've decided to follow my doctors advise and will begin Sermorelin. Is there anyone else on here using it? It's the option I've decided to go with in my fight against lipodystrophy as diet, exercise, and TRT alone haven't made that much of an impact.
 
I inject a blend of Sermorelin/Ipamorelin (200mcg each) right before bed. I've noticed deeper sleep, dreaming more, and fat loss. I've only been doing this less than two months and so far pleased with the results.
 
Phoenix, can you attribute all these effects to the Sermorelin alone?? Like, did all aspects of your lifestyle stay the same, and you just added it in, and noticed the changes? How fast did it seem to work for you? Have the changes been obvious?

Everything else remained the same. That being said I'm also using Test Cyp, HCG, and Anastrozole (TRT for a year) which I think compliments the peptides. I also do resistance and aerobic training. Like Gene mentioned it seems to work on the trouble spots. I noticed results within a month.

I've about decided to no longer refill my sermorelin prescription from Defy. At almost $250 a month, it's way too expensive for the results I'm seeing. I've been on it since the beginning of February and the results seem to have tapered off. The main intent of taking this was to help with my lipodystrophy. I've read that 0.50 is much more beneficial than the 0.25 I've been taking but at almost $500 a month, out of pocket, for the higher dose is way out of my range. Thoughts?
 
Thanks Nelson. My insurance does cover Egrifta, it's getting my physician to write a script for it. I'm going to try again with my next visit. All of those labs are due to be completed at the end of the month. Just trying to make sure I'm prepared before my next visit with Defy and my local physician.

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.
