Tesamorelin 10mg
$150.00
Tesamorelin is a synthetic growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog used primarily to reduce excess visceral abdominal fat (lipodystrophy) in HIV patients. By stimulating the pituitary gland, it prompts natural, pulsatile growth hormone release and raises IGF-1 levels, which selectively targets deep belly fat while preserving lean muscle mass.
How It Works
Unlike directly injecting synthetic growth hormone—which can suppress the body’s natural production—tesamorelin works upstream. It mimics the natural signals of the hypothalamus, prompting your pituitary gland to secrete its own growth hormone in a physiological pattern. This process upregulates lipolysis (fat breakdown) and improves body composition, targeting stubborn visceral adipose tissue (VAT).
Medical Uses & Body Composition
- HIV-Associated Lipodystrophy: This is the only FDA-approved use for pharmaceutical-grade tesamorelin. Clinical trials demonstrate a significant reduction in deep belly fat, improved waist circumference, and decreased liver fat percentage without causing excessive loss in subcutaneous fat or BMI.
- General Metabolic Research: In functional medicine and longevity research, it is studied for its ability to target central adiposity, support muscle preservation, and improve metabolic flexibility.
