    Folks understandably ask "why" the heroic dosing. To see what is on the other side is the answer 🙂 Strikes me as a reasonable experiment. Primary curiosity- assist in keeping my post-GLP3 skin tight. I am only looking to lose my ~20lbs of visceral fat but still getting some "drapy" skin nevertheless. Also, will it affect my male pattern baldness. I experienced no negative sides on daily 7.5-10mg GHK-Cu.

    Pain, yes, it can vary between nothing, and 24-36 hours not sleeping on that side pain...lol. For me the upper-outer quadrant of the buttock is where the magic is. Belly/Midriff area inevitably gets me a lump, sometimes for weeks.

    Will update thread as time passes- cheers

    So right about the upper quadrant.

      On this pep, the right spot must be located. Once you do locate it, life if great. Just for experiment sake yesterday I pinned top-mid-thigh, felt like a blowtorch for nearly 24 hours. Hit the right spots, essentially no ISR regardless of concentration.

      While I am posting, I have begun researching 5-7mg split 2x daily due to what I have determined to be a very short half-life. My curiosity is, does my 15mg pin overwhelm receptors? I don't know, hence the new experiment. I wish there was some hard data here but if there is I cannot find it. 15mg in one pin has otherwise been all good with no neg sides that I can note. BTW-the wife continues 10mg daily with no issues.

        Just so that this fact (for me) is out there- inverse correlation of GHK-Cu dose and copper levels in plasma. So that trope is put to rest. Dose-up mofos...

        119 ug/dL copper on 5-10mg GHK, 105 ug/dL on 15+mg.

        cu.jpg 105 on 15mg+ for weeks prior to test.

        Inverse correlation.

        You are welcome 😘

        As usual/always, you must do your own diligent research. PS- the entire testing results were stellar, better than ever. Not saying at all that is solely attributable to GHK, but to the full stack I am running. Above is one data point.

          @peptidepete serum is a bad measure for copper... look at RBC to measure cellular accumulation. That said, my copper rbc is fine at 4mg/ day (now my zinc RBC is far to low and needs to come up, but that's another, if related, problem).

            @peptidepete - oh - and to be clear: I'm 99% sure you will find your copper rbc is fine too... but I like your posts, and it makes me a tiny touch protective 😉

                My research hamster has been experimenting with 10mg, sub-q GHK-Cu per day in one well-diluted injection. Madness or genius? No neg effect yet. Top-quadrant of his buttocks results in least discomfort. Supplementing highest-quality collagen powder to support. Anyone else try this and want to share results?

                  Now I want to up my dose! I've been taking 2.5mg daily. I started In September with 2mg daily 3X per week, then 5X per week in early November, then daily in December. I took 2 weeks off in January when I had a reconstruction surgery and then 1 week in March when I got cellulitis in my surgery site (not fun).

                  I recently switched from morning injections to bedtime injections. I am upping mine to 4mg tonight! I will up it every 2 weeks until I get to 10. As a cancer survivor, I get my blood checked quarterly.

                      @diegoc Yeah, that is who I got the morning info from. I have sense found out he spews some good info, but a lot of bad, too.

                        FWIW- I have moved to AM/PM dosing given what I understand to be the very short half-life. Approx 5mg Am, 5mg Pm.

                        Also FWIW- I cannot note any benefits (or neg sides) at 10-15mg single pins. If nothing, why bother, eh?

                        It is still my intuition, based on absolutely nothing concrete, that GHK is going to be identified as something special. Let's see...

                        PS- all labs continue to be...perfection. My skin is elastic and spotless (65 years old)

                          @peptidepete Glad to hear all is going well! I'm just bumping up to 5mg a day. My Copper RBC labs continue to be in the normal range (though high end of normal).

                            Very little talk of the accelerating tissue repair aspect.
                            Has anyone else experimented with different sites specifically for that?

                            I've found the back of the shoulders, beside the kneecap [inner and outer] to be great.
                            Above the kneecap and elbow not so much.

                            I've also noticed that if feels better to hit a joint the night before working out on it, instead of the night you did.

                            This is with 2.5mg dosage: 50mg-10mL for 2, 25unit injections.

                              Started my GHK-Cu research last night! I didn't get a sting on the initial injection (3mL hospira in 50mg vial), but I woke up this morning with a small red spot that kinda feels like a bee sting. Might need to dilute further.

                                  My recommendation is to not inject in the belly, I keep those shots specific to the upper glutes.

                                  You could try no sting water which helps and thats the reason why my GHK i do in a syringe so i can add like 30units of additional water which ever, no sting or bac

                                    @diegoc no sting water? Are you referring to the nexus GTB that’s used for gluta?
