Peptide therapy typically involves regular injections or nasal sprays of synthetic peptides over an extended period of time, such as several months or years. The exact length of treatment depends on factors like the health goals, peptide type, dosage, and individual response to the peptides.
Some key points about the duration of peptide therapy:
- Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in the body. Synthetic peptides can be used therapeutically to promote various benefits.
- Most people use peptide therapy for 6-12 months or longer to achieve results. Consistency is important.
- Those using peptides for anti-aging, muscle gain, injury recovery, or weight loss often stay on peptides for 1-2 years or indefinitely to maintain benefits.
- People with chronic health conditions like Lyme disease or autoimmune disorders may be on peptides much longer term to keep symptoms under control.
- The length of peptide therapy depends on how long it takes to reach desired results and whether those results can be sustained after stopping peptides. Some effects may be long-lasting while others require ongoing use.
Factors that influence duration of peptide therapy:
- Type of peptide used
- Shorter acting peptides like MOD-GRF need more frequent dosing, while longer acting peptides like Tesamorelin can be dosed less often.
- Dosage
- Higher peptide dosages often produce faster results, enabling shorter cycle length.
- Goal of treatment
- Anti-aging goals may require longer duration than short-term injury healing.
- Individual variation
- Differences in absorption and response can impact duration needed.
Most clinics provide an initial 3-6 month protocol, with patients assessed for progress and tolerability before continuing. Bloodwork helps tailor cycle length and dosage over time.
