@peptidepete encouraged me, lol I guess I am easily swayed.
I am taking it for skin and hair, mainly. I am a 10 year breast cancer survivor who had 1.5 years of very harsh treatments. One of my drugs was called the Red Devil and it lived up to it's name. I am currently, thankfully, considered No Evidence of Disease, which is as good as it gets for TNBC. However, cancer being the gift that keeps on giving, I have had problems from the treatments. The skin on my arms became very thin, it bruises and tears easily. That has been greatly improved the past 6 months! I have noticed my facial lines are reduced, so that was a plus, too. My hair took about 5 months to respond. I lost all my hair to chemo and it grew back about 70%. I had a few spots where it didn't grow back. My hairstylist hid it very well. My hair is growing like a weed now and it looks very healthy. The best part, I have hair growing in the previous bald spots. It's very exciting!
Lately I am dealing with the skin that was damaged from radiation. I had 33 regular treatments and 5 "targeted boosts" at the end It just ruins the skin (no brainer though - radiation and live - easy choice). Last fall my reconstructed implant ruptured (manufacture recall on product, yay me!) and now I am dealing with silicone damage on the inside. That skin developed cellulitis after my January surgery. I am going to have to have another surgery in the next few weeks, because of this. I don't think that the GHK-cu will help that area, but you never know!
I always laugh that I am the healthiest sick person around. I am fit and very active. I have been a fitness instructor on the side for 30 years.

I gotta say, this kinda took my breath way. You have been through ALOT, you're a Warrior!

Thank you, @wisgal64 I didn’t mean to write a novel, but I do find this type of research fascinating! I have tried so many things for my skin and hair and nothing has worked. Until now!!!

Good luck, @valgal

@peptidepete Your dilution ratio is much higher than I’m currently using. I will try this, thx!!

Alright, @peptidepete you have shown me some very weak gaps in my research, learning in progress
I was up before the butt crack of dawn, and went down the rabbit hole. You are 100% accurate, what I found was eye opening to say the least. Thank you for sharing your insight and knowledge! -

The reason I don't "spoon feed" answers is exactly this! The personal discovery of "oh holy shit I did not know that! SO COOL" is priceless. Never trust anyone with an affiliate code or telling you "facts" because 99.9% of yappers know JS.
I have zero to sell, don't "coach", have no YouTube, nothing. I just love to to discover that with helps me fight the "system" that is otherwise designed for one thing- to keep me weak and sick.
Onward upward!

@peptidepete It’s a slow day when i don’t cap my like limit by noon.

LOL! Right?

2 different research subjects in my house. RS1-experienced the sting twice the first week. I'm not going to sugar coat it, as Peptidepete that said "it stung like a bitch" , and it did, but eventually subsided. Top of the thigh is a no go for me. I switched course found better sites and a different method for injecting.
RS2- experienced no pain, bragged about it even, laughed at me when I was in pain, thought I was exaggerating lol UNTIL the 29th night, he decided to try the inner thigh. 'Bout 2am I heard a very shrill sound, had no idea his voice could go that high. I tried to be sympathetic, I really did, but the only thing that came out of my mouth was the devil incarnate got ya huh? LOL
Everyone reacts differently. I hope you have a good experience

@WisGal64
INNER THIGH?!?!?!?
That's just asking for pain.Where are you poking?
I do the back of the rat's lil shoulders, beside the knee his caps {inner and outer}, and the hips where they hinge.
My main focus in on the soft tissue repair and I find doing this the night before the morning work out that focus' in that areas does wonders for the rest of the day as opposed to doing it that night. -

I learned the hard way too. I did it on the top of my rat’s thigh only once, that was my first encounter with the devil incarnate. Now rotate between hips and outer thighs, working well so far.
-
I am still trying to find that perfect spot, so far upper glute is the best and love handle area is a maybe. The issue is initially there is no burn or welt but 2 hours later the nagging ache starts and goes on pretty much all day. The upper outer thigh was a big NO after getting a huge lump and bruise.
I am up to 3mg in the morning now and really hoping it will help with Lipedema and general inflammation and of course hair and skin as menopause and autoimmune issues have taken their toll.

@WisGal64
If you go a little lower and farther back, almost to the rat's lil buttcheek, the part that probes out when it hip hinges.
OMG
You'll understand why I poke my lil rat's joints predominately, "GAME CHANGA"! -
The female rat in my household just had her first dose of GHK-CU. Did 1mg (6 units) diluted into 3ml bac. Chose upper glute and she said no pain at all. The NAD+ on the other hand gives her a sting. Note we did use a topical numbing cream that sat for roughly 30min. Hope this helps anyone. Tomorrow will be 2mg dose in the evening.

@kmckinley any improvement with the lipedema? Are you using anything else to help with with lipedema

@kmckinley any improvement with the lipedema? Are you using anything else to help with with lipedema
@MS I have been testing GHK-cu for a month now up to 3mg per day and added KPV about 3 weeks ago just got to 400mcg yesterday. Also on 2.5 mg Tirzepatide for 7 months now which has helped immensely with systemic inflammation and autoimmune disease.
So far Lipedema looks pretty much the same, but skin is looking much more hydrated so that is a good sign. I have tried just about everything for Lipedema over the years, including the strict Lion diet. I am pretty active, walking at least 2.5 miles daily and lift weights 3 days a week and now following a low carb diet. The plan is to keep testing GHK-cu and KPV for a 3-month cycle, dropping KPV for 2 weeks then restart. I may add Sermorelin, researching that now.
Lipedema is frustrating for sure, any time I can find a personal testimony I get my hopes up if they see any slight improvement. I will keep trying and researching!

The skin on my hands has vastly improved the last two weeks! I started splitting my higher dose of GHK-cu into morning and night (6mg total per day). Injecting 3mg is much better than the 5mg for me. Plus, I have started putting the GHK-cu serum that I made on my hands twice per day.

@jackie What's your receipe for the serum?
-
I mixed the GHK-cu powder (cosmetic one) into The Ordinary HA
-
I made the serum for my face, but I started putting it on the backs of my hands a few weeks ago
