Mind sharing your protocol with tesamorelin?

Mind sharing your protocol with tesamorelin?

2mg Tesamorelin / 200mcg Ipamorelin daily
I do mine at night 2-3hrs after last meal ...around 10-10:30pm) Then It's off to bed. On at least one night/week I work out 11/12 pm.. so I take protein shakes when I return form the gym around 1am)

I also run 200 mcg CJC-No DAC every other day (Fasted. preworkout)

Is there a rationale for this dosing scheme (EOD)? Iirc people here were dosing CJC-No DAC every day or twice a day.

No rationale for pining the CJC EOD. I just got tired of pinning it everyday, especially as I believe the Tesa has been more effective for me.

Late 30's. I was 250 before TRT. 225 after a few months of TRT. Started 2iu QSC GH last week. Limited sides, my mood has been pretty awesome, and getting an extra hour of sleep per night. Even if my IGF-1 doesn't move much, the extra sleep will make the GH a big value add.

Follow up: 2.7iu ED of QSC's finest GH for 3 months and my IGF-1 just came back at 575. I'm shocked. Only downside is my fasting insulin went from 5 to 20, so thats not good. I'm need to look into managing that. I had hoped at 15mg of Tirzeptide weekly would mitigate any blood sugar increases but that doesn't appear to be the case.

Nearly 40 man. Was pre-diabetic before losing 30lbs on tirz when this lab was. Lost 20 more since then.
Considering a gh protocol in the future but want to make sure my glucose is under control first.
