A few very basic Pen questions
-
By way of background, I am 2 months new to Peptides, starting with Tirzepetide for weight management. Smashing success so far. I also have fibromyalgia, train 3x per week in weight training and 3x in BJJ, and I'm old.
I am currently taking BPC157 nasal spray and also NAD+ Nasal spray. And just starting Urolithin A today (gummies).Due to my fibromyalgia, I have extreme pain sensitivity so I am looking for better ways to administer a few other peps I am considering and maybe moving my BPC157 & NAD+ to injectables if it's not too painful for me. So...
- Can pens be used in any peptide? I am specifically interested in Sermorelin and GHK-Cu and maybe the Wolverine stack
- Can I use a high gauge needle, like a 31 or 32 on the pen?
- I am not clear on what pen to buy. I think I need 1 per per peptide.
Thank you everyone - sorry for these newbie questions.

https://peptidecritic.com/tutorialssounds like you need to do some research! Peptide critic has lots of video on pens! I have bought a few and they are great! you have to buy needles for your pens somewhere else, read the forum there are suppliers listed. yes you need one pen per peptide unless your buying a combo like KLOW, some peptides sting when injected, if you get NAD get the buffered version it stings less.

@brandenscheidecker Thank you. Yes, this question is part of that research. I watched some videos but I still had a few questions. I didnt see that tutorial link before, thank you!

Welcome! My standard advice is to go slow and learn. That being said, I was where you are about a year ago and I would save you time by suggesting you skip the sermorelin and go straight to CJC no-DAC/Ipa, and maybe skip the wolverine stack and try Klow. The Wolverine stack is effective, but Klow will supercharge the effects and add other benefits.
Sermorelin is effective, but when they say it is gentle, they mean it will take months (I was told 6 months at $400/month initially) for you to notice any benefit, and if you are also changing diet and exercise, you might not notice at all. I added CJC/IPA to my existing protocol after lifting for about a year and noticed body composition changes within a few weeks.

I will second this. Unless you have a hookup (or a script) and there is some specific reason why you're choosing Sermorelin, I too would opt for CJC over Sermorelin all day. It's just way more effective and it's usually the same price and has a similar safety profile.
And I would always use a GHRP alongside my GHRH, and the best one out right now is Ipamorelin. Reason being is that GHRHs (all of them) have their effects blunted by your body's natural production of somatostatin. GHRPs will blunt that somatostatin, allowing the GHRHs to really work most effectively.

I would do the Tesamorelin and Ipamorelin (that is what I do)
As far as pens go, get good quality, not Amazon, Etsy, eBay, etc.. crap. I would definitely get at least 1 auto pen (lGansulin/Convi), they work great for hard to reach places (like sub-q in glutes) and a high quality manual pen. Novo, xulin, or a real v1 (if you can find one).
Novo are the hardest when you are new, it doesn’t work straight out of the box…
You will need at least 1 pen for every peptide you are going to take…
