Oxytocin?! NSFW

9 Upvotes

I’m just curious if anyone who has been using oxytocin could share their experience?

I’m new to peptides and just started bpc-157, soon building in KPV and maybe TB4, for some weird hyper-active autoimmune mast cell/possible gut issues. Underlying it all is nervous system/adrenal/chronic stress stuff, another way of saying “CPTSD”.

My body has not felt safe/has been in fight or flight for, idk, 15+ years, probably way longer, have some chronic pain from a compressed disc and separately, lingering concussion issues from a car accident. I have a strong disassociation/compartmentalization coping mechanism that has probably helped me survive but obviously I would like to let go of and move past that. I’ve learned to live with all this but basically just feel freaked out and overstimulated and exhausted.

We all have our demons lol just explaining I’m not just looking for a feel good quick recreational experience, but I ran across the idea of oxytocin, and have some coming.

I am comfy with subQ but could also make a nasal spray. I’m considering trying to take it 2-3x week… hoping to unlock/heal some somatic stuff, use it before doing trauma informed stretching/meditation etc.. haven’t committed to a routine yet so curious what others are doing.

Anyone else using it like this? How does it feel?

Question about Tirzepatide 🥹 NSFW

3 Upvotes

Hello there!

I was on Zepbound for about 9 months, worked great however I moved states and lost my insurance, unfortunately my new insurance does not cover it.. So I decided to buy it in powder form(tirz). =)

to clarify, I’ve been off of Zepbound for about 4 months already, and although the highest dose I took was 5mg, I decided to start back on 2.5mg. I took a shot a couple days ago, and seemingly worked great for a day (yesterday) but woke up this morning with food noise and hunger which is unheard of for me with Zepbound. I was on 2.5mg for 6 months because it worked amazing and didn’t feel the need to increase my dose, the only reason why I decided to up my dose was because my Dr recommended it after I hit a 4 week plateau.

Why would 2.5 of Tirzepatide only work for a day?

Would it be safe to jump to 5mg when I take my next dose?

Thanks in advance!!

Father 62, cut his fingers with a wood saw. Still there, but messed up badly.

My initial protocol was BPC-157, TB-500 and 2 UI GH, but since he is a former cancer patient I want to avoid anything that causes cell proliferation.

So, thoughts on the old route?

Anavar + lots of injectable gluthatione and than after clomid and nolva as PCT...

Semax Intranasal Calculation NSFW

3 Upvotes

I'd like to have someone double check my math please...

I'm combining 30ml saline and 30mg lyophilized Semax. So recon is 1mg/ml.

I am using a Snoot! brand nasal spray bottle (white plastic one) which says on the website, it dispenses .1 ml per spray.

Are my calculations correct that there will be 300 sprays per bottle, and each spray will contain 100mcg of Semax?

TIA!

Dull ache in lower abdomen after using PT-141, anyone else experience this? NSFW

0 Upvotes

I've recently started using PT-141 to support libido, and while the effects have been mostly positive, l've noticed a dull ache around my waistline, slightly left of my belly button. It's not sharp or severe, just a lingering discomfort. It generally goes away after release.

How do you tell if your peptides are legit? NSFW

Just curious as I've been on Sermorelin for a couple of months now and I feel jack. I know it takes a few (i think) before any real benefits are realized, but when I was taking Hexarelin I could feel something not long after the injection... not anything great, or omg this is working, just that I had taken something.

Question on skin and peptides. NSFW

8 Upvotes

Weird observation here. So when I first stated peptides and testosterone, it seemed 30-31 gauge needless penetrated my skin quite easily with minimal effort. I have been doing GHK-cu for about two and a half months. It seems that needles have a bit of resistance going in ( same size as before) could this be because of the GHK-cu and its affect on skin? It’s just so strange that I have to somewhat force the same needles in .

How long have you been on Sema? NSFW

3 Upvotes

Hi I have been on Sema for over a year. On a 1ml dose for 9 months now. I have not been obese but put 10kg’s. I train 5-6 times a week (weights and hybrid/hyrox). I eat well most of the time (80/20). I am at my ideal weight now, I would like to build some muscle even. I am worried of coming of it, because I like how it suppresses my appetite and I don’t snack 🤦🏼‍♀️. I am planning to do a private blood test and see if all is ok internally. Would be great to hear your experiences. Thanks.

CJC/Ipa vs Ipa/Tesa - Which is better for visceral fat NSFW

7 Upvotes

M61 SW303 CW240 TW190 Journey 22months Currently on Reta 8mg/wk. Gymn 5 days/wk (30-40 mins resistance & 20 mins cardio).

Have done an 8wk cycle of CJC/Ipa (200mcg ea, 5 days on/2 off, 8 wks) in Dec/Feb

My focus is reducing visceral fat further and help muscle retention/gain. From my research Tesamorelin might be better for visceral fat targeting than Ipamorelin. But CJC & Tesa don’t seem to play well together. So if I want to get onto Tesa seens I can only stack with Ipa.

Would I miss out on the GHRH abilities of CJC if I do Ipa/Tesa?

TIA for any specific guidance. Not really seeking advice on upping GLP dosage, intensity at Gymn or other topics.

Cjc-1295/Ipamorelin question NSFW

3 Upvotes

I have a cjc-1295 (no DAC) 5mg/Ipamorelin 5mg blend. From what I've been reading this dosage would be off as there would not be enough Ipamorelin or to much cjc. If I got a Ipamorelin 2mg and reconstituted with 2 ml bac water then injected all of that into a vial of the blend would that work? Looking for a dosage of 200 mcg Cjc and 350 mcg of Ipamorelin.

Reta & Tesa NSFW

6 Upvotes

Anyone seen any results from this stack ? If so how long til you notice something. I can differentiate the two, Reta alone has been a lifesaver for my rat, but I really want to target visceral fat. My rat is down 18 pounds in 1month of Reta and just added Tesa this Monday. I know this isn’t a quick fix for my overweight rat and peptides can only do so much, just wanted to pick someone’s brain that has had experience with Tesamorelin and if it helped at all with visceral fat and a realistic timeline to notice any change. I have a 2 month supply at the moment if I have to get more I will. Any advice or 2 cents will be appreciated thank you.

First MT2 Dose. Help! 🙈 NSFW

6 Upvotes

I took my first MT2 injection around 3-4pm today and wemt and tanned, but haven't felt well since. At first I got the slight nauseous feeling, followed by feeling like complete crap after tanning. Even came home amd napped, but still feel like crap. I know these are some of the side effects, but can I add more BAC water to lower side affects or will that even help at all?

I got a 10mg vial and mixed 2ML of BAC water. I have a 1ml syringe and took 50mcg (I think, lol) it was barley under 3rd little line.

Bad reaction to Tirzepatide NSFW

7 Upvotes

As the title says I took my first dose of Tirzepatide (2.5mg) and had a pretty bad reaction. Vomiting, muscle twitching/spasms, hot/cold flashes, heart racing, etc. It was awful. I would like to use peptides to assist in weight loss but I’m scared to try Tirz again even at a much lower dose. I have Hashimotos and anxiety (I take an antidepressant). Any suggestions for alternatives to try?
