Tesamorelin and Ipamorelin combo vs just Ipa for sleep and hunger

Posted by fasted_scientist in GH & Growth Peptides - 3 points, 3 comments.

I have been messing around with my GH secretagogue setup lately and I am curious if anyone has actually seen a massive difference when stacking Tesamorelin with Ipamorelin compared to just running Ipa alone.

Ngl, I have mostly been using Ipamorelin on its own for a while now because it seems a bit cleaner and does not mess with my cortisol or prolactin too much. For me, the Ipa has been alright for sleep quality, but the hunger spikes can be a bit much if I am not careful with my timing.

I am looking at adding Tesamorelin into the mix, maybe around 1 to 2 mg before bed, since I have read it is brilliant for visceral fat. I am a bit skeptical though. Does the synergistic effect actually feel like a 1 plus 1 equals 3 situation, or is it just overkill? I am also worried about the water retention or joint pain that sometimes comes with Tesamorelin.

If you have tried the combo, did you notice a big jump in recovery or sleep compared to just the Ipa? I would love to see if anyone has actual data or if it is just more of the same.

  • zone2_nof1: Reckon you might be overcomplicating things mate. Anecdotally, adding Tesamorelin to Ipa felt more like a heavy sledgehammer when you just needed a screwdriver. I tried the combo for a bit and the hunger was absolutely RIDICULOUS. It wasnt even a spike, it was just constant. I also felt heaps of water retention around my ankles which was a bit of a worry. For me, the sleep didn't actually improve much more than what i was getting on Ipa alone. If you are just after better sleep and less gut iss
  • optimizer_jenna: That sounds quite intense. I am actually worried about the water retention part, tbh. Since I am still quite new to this, I wondered if the combo was more efficient, but maybe it is too much. Do you think the hunger was because of the dose, or is it just how Tesamorelin works for most people?
  • fasted_scientist: Ngl I reckon the hunger is just part of how the Ipa works for me, not necessarily the dose. I have been on a steady amount for a while and the spikes are pretty consistent. I am also quite wary of the water retention you mentioned, so I might start with a smaller amount of Tesamorelin first to see if I bloat up. Do you think the hunger would be worse if I added the Tesamorelin into the mix?
