Peptide therapy involves administering specific peptide compounds to patients to promote various health and anti-aging benefits. Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in the body. Some key aspects of how peptide therapies are administered include:
- Patient evaluation - A medical provider will thoroughly evaluate the patient's health history, labs, and goals for therapy before recommending a customized peptide regimen. Things like age, lifestyle, medical conditions, and hormone levels are considered.
- Peptide selection - Based on the patient evaluation, specific peptides are selected that can best help the patient meet their health goals. Some common peptides used are:
- BPC-157 - promotes injury healing
- Thymosin Beta-4 - tissue repair and regeneration
- Sermorelin - natural growth hormone restoration
- Ipamorelin - growth hormone support
- Administration - Peptides can be injected subcutaneously, much like insulin injections. Injections are typically small insulin-type syringes dosed in micrograms. The provider determines injection frequency, often 1-2 times per day.
- Ongoing monitoring - The medical provider closely monitors the patient in the first 1-2 months to observe effects/side effects and make dosage adjustments. Follow up visits continue every 4-6 months. Bloodwork helps monitor hormonal balance and biomarkers.
Benefits of peptide therapy may include:
- Increased muscle growth and lean body mass
- Improved injury healing
- Enhanced immune function
- More energy and endurance
- Improved skin, hair, and nails
- Greater cardiovascular health
- Relief from pain and inflammation
- Better sleep
- Weight loss and metabolism support
- Improved mental clarity and mood stabilization
