Tesamorelin
A synthetic peptide and Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone (GHRH) analog.
FDA-approved for reducing visceral adipose tissue (VAT) in HIV-associated lipodystrophy.
Stimulates the pituitary gland to increase natural growth hormone (GH) and IGF-1 production.
Potential Benefits for Both Men and Women
Fat Loss & Body Composition
Reduces visceral abdominal fat (VAT) — particularly effective in stubborn deep belly fat.
May reduce subcutaneous fat with extended use.
Improves waist circumference and body shape.
Preserves lean muscle mass during fat loss.
Growth Hormone & IGF-1 Boosting
Increases IGF-1 levels safely within physiological range.
Stimulates endogenous GH production without shutting down natural GH like synthetic HGH can.
Cognitive & Brain Health
May improve cognitive function, especially in aging adults.
Potential neuroprotective effects via IGF-1 elevation.
Cardiovascular Health
Reduces triglycerides and improves lipid profiles in some studies.
Decreases inflammatory markers (e.g., CRP) linked to heart disease.
Reduces arterial plaque burden in HIV patients (ongoing research).
Bone Health
May increase bone mineral density over time by boosting GH and IGF-1.
Useful in osteopenia or osteoporosis support.
Anti-Aging & Longevity
Supports mitochondrial function and cellular repair.
May improve sleep quality, recovery, and overall vitality.
Enhances skin elasticity and collagen synthesis (anti-wrinkle potential).
Muscle & Performance
Helps preserve or build lean muscle mass.
May enhance exercise recovery, reduce fatigue, and improve endurance.
Supports faster injury recovery due to anabolic hormone support.
Metabolic Health
Improves insulin sensitivity in some individuals.
May help regulate blood sugar and support fat metabolism.
Mood & Wellbeing
Reported improvements in motivation, mood, and mental clarity.
Possible support for depression symptoms via hormonal balance.
🚺 Additional Notes for Women
Can improve body composition during menopause or hormonal transitions.
Potential skin and hair benefits due to GH/IGF-1 stimulation.
🚹 Additional Notes for Men
May enhance libido and erectile function indirectly via improved hormone balance and fat loss.
Supports testosterone optimization when used alongside TRT or naturally.
