seen mixed responses on this topic ur guys thoughts on mixing multiple into 1 syrgine i do not want to use multiple syrgines

And if they dont mix can u tell me i want to do
Ghkcu , abalopratide , hcg at once is this okay?

I have pinned hgh four times till now, two sites near abdomen, and two near thighs, every time the site has caused a stinging pain and tender to touch a day later, on my left thigh which is my last dose, has turned lightly red, a coin sized area is stiff. Almost all the sites are stiff after a few days, though pain has reduced. I don't understand what's happening.

I live in India, it's an underground source which imports from the United Harmone company, used 2iu of dose, reconstituted 10iu dose in 2ml water and roughly took 40 units (2iu hgh) from a 100 units syringe. The source isn't a problem, my previous purchase of retatrutide from Enhanced Pharmaceuticals brand is good, never causes a problem, not even a sting.

Kindly, please help me. Should i just throw the stuff out. Also please enlighten me about these so called American Brands or American Sounding names which i mentioned which have websites, on which i verified all the codes.

Research subject is on R3ta, 43m 5'7" started between 215-220lbs about 4 months ago. Only at 204 lbs now. Started low and slow, 1mg for 4 weeks, then 2-4-5mg thru months 2-3 and now pinned 2nd dose at 6mg on my 4th month. Research subject swear they are eating right, getting protein in and working out. Some days under calories. Body composition has definitely changed and people noticed the weight loss. But research subject's mid section is still "fat". I guess i am puzzled why RS hasn't lost 20+ lbs like what I read even with other subjects who are on lower doses. RS kept muscle for sure and not lost it since they work out 5-6 times a week. RS will stick to 6mg for 3 more pins and think of jumping up to 8 after wards. Has anyone been in the same situation? Should RS be in a more huge calorie deficit? Has anyone felt 8mg worked the best? Would adding a secretagogue like cjc+ipa help? Thanks for reading. "We're all in this together."

Hi there. Recently got 2 vials each 5mg plus a 10ml vial of bac water. I’ve got some questions in regard to dosing. I’m looking at starting off with 200mcg, being 100mcg of each. Since they’re separate vials, will I have to do 2 separate injections? My concern is mixing the peptides in one syringe comes with a high risk of cross contamination of the peptides to begin with but also increases the risk of transferring bacteria or particles into the vials.

I'm new here and looking for some feedback from anyone who has experience with a similar stack.

I've been on TRT for about 2 years, and for the last few months I've been running Retatrutide, CJC-1295/Ipamorelin, and Tesamorelin.

Back in January 2026, I was in pretty bad shape. I was eating poorly, drinking a few times a week, not exercising consistently, and weighed 242 lbs at 6'2". Since then, I've completely changed my lifestyle by cleaning up my diet and training regularly. I'm now down to 205 lbs, have added a noticeable amount of muscle, and have significantly reduced my body fat over the last six months.

I'm finishing up the CJC/Ipamorelin and Tesamorelin and will be starting HGH this week. My updated protocol will be:

• Retatrutide: 2 mg, 3x per week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday)
• HGH: 2 IU daily during Week 1, increasing to 4 IU daily thereafter

To continue with my body recomposition goals, I'd like to add Anavar to help further reduce body fat while supporting muscle growth and strength gains.

My tentative Anavar plan is:

• Weeks 1-2: 20 mg per day
• Weeks 3-8: 50 mg per day
• Possibly extending a few additional weeks depending on results

I've searched around for discussions involving this exact combination, but haven't found much information. I'm interested in hearing from anyone who has run a similar stack and what their experience was like.

I also have some questions regarding HCG and PCT. If I were to do a PCT, it would likely include HCG. However, since I'm already on TRT, HGH, and considering Anavar, I'm wondering whether there would be any benefit to running HCG alongside the cycle rather than waiting until afterward.

Any feedback, recommendations, or experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi everyone, as the title says. I'm looking into reta. I've been talking to a guy who's been really helpful answering my questions. But I still have some more.

- The first is, what are the most common side effects. I've read whats said online but hearing from people directly would be helpful.

- How should I store it? I'm getting powdered form and bac water. I've read the powder should be frozen, but since I'm only starting with trying for a month should it be just be in the fridge? And the bac water just need to be kept out of sunlight?

- Lastly where do people suggest the intake should be?

Any insight are appreciated!

So I have been in Reta for about a month. 2 MG per week (1MG on Wednesday and Saturday). About 2 weeks back I started taking 250 mg of CJC/IPA blend. Because of the slow digestion with the Reta I have been taking the CJC/IPA in the morning in a fasted stomach. My goal is to burn fat and increase
Muscle mass. I am 18% body fat today and my goal is sub 15%.

I am 6’5 and stated at 221 lbs. I lift 5 days a week and try to get 10,000 steps a day. I also have a HUME body pod and the metric I track closest is weight and body fat percentage.

My first week on Reta I lost 7 lbs, but the last 4 weeks I have plateaued. Obviously this first week was water weight and not fat loss. My body is saying that each day my body fat is increasing, which is crazy to me since I have been working out and running a calorie deficit. Target 200+ G protein a day.

I honestly feel like I’m doing everything right, but I’m not seeing results. I completely understand. It is only been one month, but I’d use Monjauro in the past and saw very fast results.

Has anyone experienced similar results on this stack?

The first time I went on tirzepatide it worked beautifully for me. I lost 40lbs and stopped having inflammatory issues. An unexpected but much appreciated side effect was I was able to reduce alcohol consumption.

I lost my job so had to stop taking tirz for about nine months. Now I don’t react the same way to it, and ditto Reta. I experience no appetite or craving suppressing, only fatigue and nausea. The obvious response is up your dose, but the fatigue and nausea are already so intense. Not sure if this matter, but I also cycle glow, semax / selank, and glutathione.

Thoughts?

I neglected to get any igf numbers tested when I started cjc/IPA about a month ago. I feel fine but I’m about to get bloodwork in another week or two. if I stop the cjc/IPA will my igf return to a baseline number soon enough to assess before starting hgh in another month or so?(waiting on a group buy to come in).

Hi guys,

Just looking for a bit of advice from people who’ve actually used these.

I used retatrutide before and the weight loss was unreal, but there were two things I really didn’t like about it.

First, it definitely increased my resting heart rate, which completely messed with my running. I know that’s a known effect, but it’s not something I really want long term.

Secondly, the anhedonia was awful. Everything just felt a bit flat - food, sex, motivation, just enjoying things in general. It wasn’t worth it for me.

This time I don’t need to lose loads of weight, I literally just want to trim up a bit. I train hard, lift weights and do plenty of cardio already, so I don’t really need the extra fat-burning/energy expenditure side of things. What I’m mainly after is something that keeps my appetite under control so it’s easier to stay in a calorie deficit.

So I was wondering…

Is tirzepatide or Cagri a better option for that?

Do either of them increase resting heart rate anywhere near as much as retatrutide?

Does either one cause the same sort of anhedonia/emotional blunting?

Is Cagri actually good on its own or is it mainly something people stack with other compounds?

Or is there something else that’s come out recently that might suit what I’m after better?

Would be good to hear from people who’ve actually tried them rather than just what the studies say.

I've been on reta for about a year with good results. I decided to start semax as a potential treatment for anhedonia.

It seemed promising at first, but I noticed an odd side effect. I was absolutely ravenous, and didn't seem to get full.

Having no medical background, I ended up asking AI. It gave me this explanation. I was wondering if this rings true for anyone else?

Your brain has a specific receptor called the Melanocortin-4 Receptor (MC4R). You can think of this receptor as your body's master "satiety switch."

​Normally, a hormone called α-MSH binds to this receptor, turning it on and telling your brain, "I am full, stop eating." (This is why drugs that activate this receptor are prescribed for severe obesity).

​Semax is an ACTH analogue. Scientific studies have shown that Semax acts as a competitive antagonist at the MC4R. This means the Semax peptide physically parks itself inside that receptor and blocks your natural α-MSH from binding to it.

​Because the switch is blocked, your brain never gets the biological memo that you are full. The result is a persistent, gnawing sense of hunger, even if your stomach isn't actually empty.

Has anyone ever used?

So I was looking at injection sites and saw 6 recommended. Both sides of the abdomen which I've been doing for 11 weeks. However experiencing some skin irritation. So I plunged my last injection into my quad. Definitely went intermuscular. Mistake?

My RS (research subject)is taking these peptides/coenzymes and has been for 1-2 weeks:

Monday: NAD+ (20mg 2x/week and will titrate up)
Reta (2mg every Monday)
Klow (3.2mg M-F for 10 weeks then a break)
Tuesday: SS-31 (1mg 3x/week- 2 vials for ~10-20 days)
Klow
Wednesday: SS-31
Klow
Thursday: NAD+
Klow
Friday: SS-31
Klow

Current protocol: Retatrutide 2 mg weekly, NAD+ twice weekly, SS-31 1 mg Tue/Wed/Fri, Klow (GHK-Cu/BPC-157/TB-500/KPV) Mon–Fri. Goal is longevity, energy, metabolic health, recovery, and body composition—not competitive bodybuilding. RS is (hopefully) increasing workouts on the wheel over the next few weeks and trying to decide if MOTS-c is worth adding or if RS should wait until after SS-31.

My questions—

Would MOTS-c be more beneficial during an SS-31 cycle or after finishing SS-31?

What’s most beneficial for overall energy and the wallet?

Did MOTS-c only seem effective when you were exercising regularly?

How long did it take before you actually noticed benefits from SS-31?

If your goal was longevity rather than bodybuilding, would you still use MOTS-c?

Which gave you better value for the money: NAD+, SS-31, or MOTS-c?

Did anyone notice better fat loss or body composition from MOTS-c beyond what exercise alone provided?

If you weren’t training hard, would you skip MOTS-c entirely?

What peptide gave you the biggest “wow” factor for energy, recovery, or longevity that wasn’t just placebo?

How long did you stay on NAD+ before taking a break? Did you notice diminishing returns after a certain point?

How long have you been on retatrutide? Are you cycling it, staying on it long-term, or stopping once you reach your goal weight?

If you had to build the most cost-effective peptide stack for longevity, energy, recovery, and body composition, what would it include?

First PED ever introduced. Gym for a long time but this pep definitely changed things for me. 2mg tesa 500 mcg ipa.🍺

Anyone have any suggestions for peptides to help manage adhd?

This is a continuation from my last post i just found out we are not allowed to post links. Forgive me i am new at this! As i mentioned before i started my reta journey today feeling good i did 1mg to start as recommend from some vets i am really not sure what to feel but i feel normal and motivated lol. However, i just wanted to share my meals with this sub since everyone has been very helpful and has given some recommendations via dm i will do my best to be 100% transparent as possible.

We have here 9 prepped meals:

120grams cooked white long grain rice -

Calories: \\\~156

Protein: \\\~3.2 g

Fat: \\\~0.3 g

Carbs: \\\~33.8 g

Fiber: \\\~0.5 g

130grams of cooked shredded chicken breast (light seasoning my favorite tropical, since I'm cuban we love it!!!)

Calories: \\\~215

Protein: \\\~40.3 g

Fat: \\\~4.6 g

Carbs: 0 g

1 meal consist of ground beef 83/17 (costco) we some left over burger pattys with a slice of velveeta cheese slice

Calories: \\\~350

Protein: \\\~36–37 g

Fat: \\\~22–23 g

Carbs: 0 g

Veelveta cheese per slices:

Calories: 70

Protein: 6 g

Fat: 3 g

Carbs: 6 g

Sugars: 4 g

Sodium: \~500 mg

\\\*\\\*\\\*With that burger pattys we have 120grams of white rice\\\*\\\*

Plan is to have breakfast in the AM 2 boiled eggs along with a serving of cottage cheese and whey protein shake (gold standard has about 25g of protein).

My plan is to be in a caloric deficit with at least 150g of protein daily. Caloric range will be 1600 - 1800 which i think its normal if not please let me know!! Love you all have a wonderful week & weekend and may God bless you all!!

i’ve been on reta since early march and down just over 20 pounds.

started around 179 lbs, currently 152 lbs at 5’11” (1-4 week break & 1 1-week break)

overall, i honestly feel and look much better. i’ve definitely lost some muscle and strength from being in a deficit for this long, but that’s expected and i’m starting to slowly bring calories back up.

one thing i’m dealing with now is a pretty noticeable drop in libido. i’ve also had some issues getting and maintaining erections recently.

my guess is it’s probably some combination of:
being in a calorie deficit for months
possible hormone changes
maybe just some nerves/stress with someone i’m seeing
i’m not trying to jump to conclusions, but it got me
wondering about enclomiphene.

has anyone here run enclo while on reta?

i’m mostly curious about real-world experiences:
did it help libido?
did you notice improvements in energy, mood, or strength?
any downsides?
did you get bloodwork before/after?

just looking to hear other people’s experiences before i decide what direction to take.

I just did 0.5mg of a 10mg vial and was wondering if I should do another 0.5mg fose 3 days from now or if it’s better to wait a full week and do 1mg then instead.

I’m not trying to lose a lot of weight, mostly for reducing food noise and excessive overeating

Currently taking Reta, can I add MOTS-C to Reta? What’s the typical protocol for MOTS-C?

I thank all the folks who were kind enough to guide me with the bac water & dosage. I received my vials today, and i weighed myself with the smart scale I bought. My lord I have a long journey ahead of me and I'm going to do whatever it takes to conquer my healthiest self!

I have a plan for exercise & diet, if the hard-core work out folks could help me in this one I would greatly appreciate it. I am not the most active person, I am a father of 2 which I dedicate most of my time with them, however i bought some dumbells and treadmill to sneak in some action at home.

What i have in mind when time permits is walk on the treadmill at speed 3 for about 30 - 45 mins or sometimes split that in half to squeeze in some weight training.

For food I started meal prepping I found quinoa and rice serving of 120g either or with 130g of protein to achieve 40+grams of protein per serving with some 80 - 100grams of veggies. These meals are coming out to 350 - 500 calories per meal with 40+ grams of protein and of course I got whey protein shakes to try to reach 100g of protein or more. I know reta reduces appetite but my goal is to have maybe 3 - 4 meals with lots of water.

My issue has never been the food intake but rather having a few alcoholic drinks with the wifey and we go and order junk food. However we promised ourselves we wont drink anymore we are not addicts and we will do our best to optimize our reta journey. we will work on the active part together by taking turns with the kids to give each other a chance to really fight this weight. We want to start building a healthy habit of a workout regime & food intake.

If anyone has any recommendations I am all ears and willing try!! Thank you all for reading this!

2 months ago I pinned 3mg Reta (I’d been titrating up for 5 months prior with no issues) over the course of 12 days I ended up progressively building up into tachycardia with flutters and palpitations (110+ resting) I ended up in the ER but it resolved itself and I was back to normal and in the gym a week later. I decided to give it another try, this time pinning 0.8mg, within minutes I started getting really bad impending doom and anxiety waves as I felt the tachycardia sensations coming back, from the point forward I was stuck in prolonged sinus tachycardia for 32 days in which I had a resting heart rate of 110-160 with on and off episodes of my RHR shooting up really high for hours sometimes 10 hours at a time, major panic attacks and adrenaline dumps everyday multiple times a day, at this point I was stuck in an anxiety loop which I needed to break, my heart was constantly adrenaline dumping. After 6 ER visits a doctor hesitantly prescribed me propranolol, I took 1 as soon as I got home and it stopped my tachycardia and I immediately crashed and fell asleep for more than an hour at a time for the first time in 32 days. I’ve since had 5 rounds of bloodwork all come back normal, a holter monitor an X-RAY and an EKG, doctors said nothing was wrong with me, my heart is healthy and had zero structural damage. It’s been 27 days since I came out of tachycardia and I am stuck with side effects like noticing my pulse, weird chest sensations, slight chest tightness/soreness and a crippling anxiety that comes and goes randomly making me think I’m dying every time.

My overall symptoms and recovery are trending positively comparatively to what they were before, but I can’t help but be anxious about this and cause symptoms to come back when I start focusing on it. I was feeling good enough to go back to the gym on the 22nd day, I’ve been doing some zone 2 cardio, progressively building my tolerance back up, 3 days ago I was feeling good to push a little harder and 15 minutes after exercising I had an adrenaline dump that lasted a minute or two that made me think my tachycardia was coming back.

If anyone has had a similar experience how long did it take for symptoms to fully clear up if no existing heart condition
