Growth Hormone Axis

Compounds studied for growth-hormone-axis research.

Growth-hormone-axis research studies secretagogues and GHRH analogs that influence pulsatile growth-hormone release and downstream IGF-1 signaling. The compounds grouped here — selective ghrelin-receptor agonists, the CJC-1295/Ipamorelin blend, and stabilized GHRH analogs like Tesamorelin — are investigated in preclinical and clinical research for how they modulate the GH axis while limiting cortisol and prolactin elevation. These are research compounds, characterized by the pathway they act on, not therapeutic products.

Compounds studied for this research goal

The catalog, narrowed to this research area.

Each compound below is drawn from our catalog and grouped here by the research interest that defines it. Every card links to its full research and sourcing page; dosing figures are summarized from published research literature, not advice.

CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin

GH secretagogue blend

The CJC-1295/Ipamorelin blend is the most-studied growth-hormone secretagogue combination.

Studied range:
100–300 mcg of each component (200–600 mcg total blend), 1–3× daily (published range)
Administration:
Subcutaneous — research timing often favors pre-sleep dosing

Ipamorelin

selective GH secretagogue

Ipamorelin is a selective growth-hormone secretagogue studied on its own and in blends.

Studied range:
100–300 mcg per dose, 1–3× daily (published research range)
Administration:
Subcutaneous

Tesamorelin

GHRH analog

Tesamorelin is a stabilized GHRH analog studied for growth-hormone-axis research.

Studied range:
1–2 mg per dose, daily in published research design (research range)
Administration:
Subcutaneous

Protocols for this goal

Research-framed protocols in this area.

Curated multi-compound protocols built only from compounds we cover, dosed with the published-research literature range, and rated by how mature the research base actually is.

GH Secretagogue Stack

CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin

Strong research base

The most-studied growth-hormone secretagogue combination. CJC-1295 is a GHRH analog that raises the baseline of GH release, while Ipamorelin is a selective ghrelin-receptor agonist that produces a clean GH pulse with minimal effect on cortisol or prolactin.

Typical duration
8–12 weeks
Est. reagent cost
$20–$40 / wk

GH Axis + Recovery Stack

Tesamorelin + BPC-157

Moderate research base

Tesamorelin is a stabilized GHRH analog studied for the growth-hormone axis at larger doses than the secretagogue blends. Paired with BPC-157, the protocol reflects research interest in running a GH-axis agent alongside a dedicated tissue-repair agent — a sustained hormonal-axis signal plus a frequent-dose local repair compound.

Typical duration
8–12 weeks
Est. reagent cost
$40–$75 / wk

Selective GH + Recovery Stack

Ipamorelin + TB-500

Moderate research base

Ipamorelin is a selective growth-hormone secretagogue that produces a clean GH pulse without the GHRH-analog component, making it the lighter-touch option for the GH arm of a recovery protocol. Paired with TB-500’s systemic cell-migration research, this stack reflects interest in a discrete pulsatile GH signal alongside a longer-acting systemic repair agent.

Typical duration
6–10 weeks
Est. reagent cost
$25–$55 / wk
