Peptide therapy involves using specific peptides or peptide combinations to treat various health conditions or improve wellness. The peptides used are short amino acid chains that naturally occur in the body and help regulate different physiological processes.
The length of time that peptide therapy results last depends on several key factors:
- Type of peptide used
- Growth hormone peptides like sermorelin or ipamorelin tend to provide effects that can last for months
- Healing and recovery peptides like BPC-157 or thymosin beta 4 (TB-500) tend to have shorter lasting effects once treatment stops
- Condition being treated
- When treating chronic conditions like hormone decline or leaky gut, ongoing periodic treatment may be necessary
- For more acute conditions like an injury, effects may last weeks to months even after treatment stops
- Dose and frequency
- Larger, more frequent doses often lead to longer lasting results
- Protocols with shorter, less frequent dosing may require more repetition over time
- Individual variation
- Factors like age, genetics, lifestyle can affect duration of benefits
Some general guidelines around longevity of peptide therapy:
- Sermorelin - Growth hormone stimulation effects may last 3-6 months or longer based on dose/frequency
- Ipamorelin - Benefits can potentially last 6 months
- BPC-157 - Symptom relief or healing of specific injuries for ~4-6 weeks
- AOD9604 - Metabolic boosting effects for 4-8 weeks typically
- Thymosin Beta-4 - Tissue repair effects for up to 3 months
To maximize the longevity of results:
- Consistent dosing important initially
- Maintenance dosing may be necessary - less frequent doses to sustain benefits
- Improve diet and lifestyle - peptides work best alongside healthy living
- lab testing to evaluate hormone levels, biomarkers over time and adjust dosage/frequency as needed
Over time,
peptide therapy often allows patients to wean off treatments or move to lighter maintenance regimens after achieving desired improvements in energy, performance, injury recovery, or healing from specific conditions. Tracking patient progress via lab work and optimizing dosing helps sustain peak benefits longer.
