Tesa/Ipa vs. CJC/Ipa
-
So I started this thread to discuss the Tesa/Ipa vs. CJC/Ipa instead of having it in the other combing KLOW & MOTS-C thread.
So I watched the Chris Duffin video, about Tesa or CJC. He mentioned you shouldn’t take the Tesa if your where peri menopausal. I just didn’t understand why.
My wife is in perimenopause. She is on Tesa 1mg/Ipa.3mg 5 nights on 2 off. Would she be better off taking CJC/Ipa instead? What is the equivalent dose of CJC/Ipa? -

So from the sounds of it in the Chris Duffin video, he says the Tesa isn’t good for people during Perimenopause…
That is the part that is confusing me.
I have plenty of Tesa/IPA and plenty of CJC/IPA, so it isn’t a matter of having to buy something else, I have them both.
Just want what works best for each of us. My wife is in decent shape, she use to be an IFBB Bikini Pro. She stopped competing during covid. Now she is unhappy with the way she looks. You can still she she has some abs. But she would like to get back to what she was off season when she competed.
Me on the other hand, can’t see my abs anymore
-
The other factor is that the CJC/Ipa is usually taken 2-3 times a day. Chris says in his video that the does is 250mcg (1/8 of the Tesa), but he doesn’t say if that is once, twice or three times a day. Also from the research I did, for a 110lbs person the dose should be about 1mg a day.
So again such a big swing in information…
My wife is going to switch over to CJC/Ipa blend at 0.5mg once a day at night. Unfortunately there is no real way to test them against each other except if one of them doesn’t work for her.
I did read a lot on the differences of Tesamorelin and CJC and Sermorelin. If wjat I read was correct, CJC No Dac, is a little longer acting Sermorelin. Tesamorelin is a longer acting agent than CJC no Dac (and that is the short version of the difference). The longer acting Tesamorline can cause more side effects, one of them being bloated.
With experimenting with these compounds only time will tell what works for someone and what doesn’t.
You can only take so many things, I already feel like a pin cushion. As it is, I take Reta once a week on Sunday night, MOTS-C and KLOW M-F in the morning and Tesa/Ipa M-F before bed. That is pushing my limit and if it wasn’t for these Pens (Thank you Peptide Critic for introducing me to them), I wouldn’t be taking anything bit the Reta once a week. Somehow I have to find a way to add in MT2 a couple times a week before the sun gets to strong and I start burning from being outside.
It was much better when I was young and didn’t have to do all this stuff… -
I normally take Tesa/Ipa. Tonight I took CJC/Ipa. One thing I noticed, and it happened to my wife last night also. My heart rate went up and I got a warm flush feeling in my face.
I only took 0.5mg/0.5mg of the CJC/Ipa. This never happens with the Tesa/Ipa, and I take 1mg/0.3mg of that.
Does this happen to anyone else? -
@ResearchCat
Thanks, I am dropping the dose down to 167mcg once a day before bed.
Not sure if that dose will work as good as the 1mg of Tesa before bed did… -
I like the Tesa/Ipa at 1mg/.3mg once a night before bed. It seems to work for me. For some reason my wife wanted to switch to the CJC/IPA (still not sure why) So I bought it for her from Nexaph. Actually today I am going to figure out how to send 1 of the vials to Freedom for testing.
I don’t like that flush feeling from anything, unfortunately I have to deal with it from the MT2. I definitely don’t want to deal with it from CJC/Ipa.
I guess there is a cost savings over the Tesa if you are only doing 167mcg a day. But will 167mcg of CJC/Ipa give you the same results as 1mg of Tesa/Ipa?
