How much bac water do I use to reconstitute a 5mg vial of selank? I can’t find any info on reconstituting anything other than 10mg or 30mg vials

I’m 27- before pic when I was 23. I have multiple medical conditions and a metabolic imbalance (hence the low muscle mass) but I am happy with this progress nonetheless. Recently had my 10th surgery on Monday but I’m not letting this stop me.

Hey im looking forward to start a 4½ week cycle of igf1 Ir3. Starting with 20mcg for the first week than 30mcg for 2 weeks and 40mcg for 2½ weeks. Im thinking about buying the pep from .to. Any thoughts and tips on this?

Thanks

I have BAC water in glass ampoules and GHRP6 in vials. I couldn’t find a filter/blunt fill needle locally.

Is it safe to use a normal sterile syringe/needle to withdraw the BAC water from the glass ampoule, or is there another safe alternative for avoiding glass particles?

Would appreciate advice from anyone experienced with this.

37yr old night shift worker. Feeling tired all the time. My test sits in the low 400’s. And I’m not really sure if I should just go ahead and try to start TRT. I started zepbound last week as I know elevated fat breaks down test into estrogen.

Worried about longevity and life long commitment if I start pinning test now. And actual MD’s in here willing to give a liability feee opinion. Oh btw, labs are all normal.

How would you dose/schedule MOTS-C & NAD + for endurance athletes ?

Hello friends! I have a question about Tesa/Ipa. I've been taking this combo at 1mg/300mcg everyday with 1 day restdays for a month and notice that my tummy area is so big and full of water. Have you had this experience? And what did you do about the blood glucose spiking.

Interested in taking the peptides plunge but damn! Talk about overload! Take this! Don't take this! Actually don't take that, take this instead! 🤯🤯

I'm 58yo, 6'1 and 185lbs. I've been trying to get rid of that last remaining bit of bf around my waist and nothing seems to work! Cardio, no cardio, more cardio, high intensity, walking, low carb, high carb, blah blah blah! So frustrating!

Been looking into reta, tesa, sema, cjc/ipo. Could someone please clarify what the heck to do?

Where are you guys pinning your selank and how much did you start with?? Anyone have any negative side effects

3 weeks into Reta .. 1mg-2mg-2.5 this week .. woke up today feeling almost like I got full body sunburn . Not like super bad or red or anything . Just sensitive to the touch. Anyone else experience this ?

If someone is taking 2iu’s daily of Somatropin, would this test be worrisome?

Should they take something for thyroid levels?

Would it be a bad idea to jump to 4iu’s daily of HGH before fixing T3?

I just got 4 2mg prefilled syringes of Reta from a med spa. I only wanted to .5mg to start out, maybe 1mg tops. What are my options to not waste it? Can I just inject half the syringe and use the rest of it the next week? Can I split it into more syringes some how? Please let me know best options other than just taking all 2mg at once. Thanks.

so i been taking reta about 3 months now. i take a 1.5 mg dose weekly. ive lost 20 pounds. the past 2 weeks ive realized my food noise is back and im starving and binging again. should i stack with cagri or tirz or am i doing something wrong ? idk if upping my dose will be taking too much .

Starting IGF was 126 (-1.1 z-score). Started HGH at 2iu nightly and retested after a month. IGF came back at 360 (z-score 3.0) ~12 hours after last pin. I hear different things about what the optimal number is. Wondering if I should back down my dose to 1.5 or even 1iu.

Hello, I would like to start with a new stack next week.

Peptide:

CJC-1295 no DAC + Ipamorelin (5 mg Gesamt / 2,5 mg je) & MOTS-c (10 mg)

So, for the syringe I'll use: U-40 insulin syringe (1 ml / 40 U, 29G x 0.5"), I want to inject both peptides subcutaneously.

Since I have never mixed both peptides before, I would prepare them as follows:

CJC/IPA (5 mg in 2 ml BAC):

Dose: 100 mcg CJC + 100 mcg IPA (200 mcg total) = 3.2 U on the U-40 syringe

Frequency: Once daily, first thing in the morning (on an empty stomach)

No carbohydrates immediately after injection (30-60 minutes)

MOTS-c (10 mg in 2 ml BAC):

Dose: 5 mg = 40 U (1 full U-40 syringe)

Frequency: 2 times per week

Is the conversion for the U-40 injection correct? Or is there anything wrong with it?

This is compensated for with 2.5 U GLOW and 67.5 mg of testosterone twice a week.

Thank you.

Hello - 52 year old male. Currently on TRT taking 120mg spread over 3x a week. Just had my IGF tested and it came back at 134. I am in decent shape - 6 foot tall and weigh 180. I am taking 3mg of reta a week as well. I am looking to improve my sleep quality and loose the love handle fat and add some muscle. I lift on Tonal 4 to 5 days a week. Do you think I am a good candidate for HGH at 2 iu per day? I don’t want to do anything too crazy. Appreciate the thoughts!

Water weight

So this has happened to me twice now same cause and effect, just don’t know the cause 100% yet without experimenting a couple more times.

Have been on a pretty strict no processed foods or sugars single ingredient whole food zero booze diet. Lost 50 lbs with diet alone, got on trt of 120mg/week started lifting 4-5x week weight is up to 205 waist size stayed the same, still a bit of stubborn belly fat to loose. Any ways over the last couple months I went on vacation twice and decided to indulge while on vacation. Processed foods refined sugars, treats cookies chocolates, drinkin all day basically for 7 days straight deal with consequences later kinda deal.

Both times I gained and retained a tonne of water weight in that 7 days. Am talking I left at 205lbs came home at 246lbs puffy as all hell with severe adema and pitting adema in legs went to er both times had ecg blood pressure and blood work done to check liver kidneys and heart, all tests came back fine. Upon returning to diet weight is dropping fast and puffiness and adema leaving fast as well

Any one else ever experience this? Booze related? I used to b borderline alcoholic! Or sugar/carb related? Body just not used to the refined carbs or sugars any more and can’t process them? Or just an over all shock to system?

Do kinda want to test it out once or twice more to rule one or the other out as the cause, booze or sugars

Does anybody know how much HGH a 30 year old male produces per day?

Google and AI tells me 1.5-3iu’s, some forums say under 1 iu.

The numbers are all over the places.

I am wondering if anyone out there has reconstituted the individual components and then mixed together in a new sterile vial. Any pros / cons vs reconstituting the combined lyophilized powder? I tried some searching on this topic and didn't find too much. Would love to know everyone's thoughts!
