Hey everybody. Long time lurker here (about 3 years), finally registered.
I’m curious about your experiences with GHRP-6. I’m interested in the positive effects on joints, ligaments, etc. Now unfortunately I’m definitely a FFB (former fat boy) and if I don’t keep my diet tight (especially as I’m getting older) then I gain fat pretty easily. Every post and article I’ve read states GHRP-6 is going to cause appetite to sky rocket, which brings me to my question:
Is there an amount that I can take GHRP-6 at that will not spike my appetite while still offering the positive effects I seek? Multiple injects don’t bother me. I’ve heard Hexarelin offers the same benefits without the appetite boost, but the cost is looks prohibitive unfortunately.
Many thanks for any insights you may be able offer.
In your case I’d try 100mcg 2-3 times a day. 100mcg will not cause a massive hunger spike and a total daily dose of 200-300mcg is sufficient to get G6 benefits. The nice thing about G6 is that you can lose bodyfat on it as well. I’ve used upwards of 600-800mcg a day and found myself maintaining tren strength after I came off and reducing bodyfat. It was awesome. Only problem for me was 800mcg gave me insomnia and shortness of breathe. Much like tren can but this honestly was worse.
Thanks for your reply saps. That is what I hoping to hear, as that is what I was hypothesizing, but was pretty unsure. I’ve been wanting to try G6 for quite some time, but I have a friend who claims to get a crazy hunger spike following a 150mcg inject, and with my body type I just can’t “get away” with pigging out, or at least not anymore haha.
With the G6, should it be taken at times when insulin levels are as low as possible? I’ve heard/read that the presence of insulin will reduce the GH response. I tend to eat a carb restricted diet anyway (before and during my workout being the exception), so what would be a good dosing schedule?
I was thinking maybe upon waking (a little while before my breakfast, which is low to no carb), sometime post-workout (I recall Thibs saying that catecholamines are present at this time and really reduce insulin response), and before going to bed. Each inject being 100mcg. Does that sound reasonable?
Also, is there a consensus on how long the G6 should be ran? I’m pretty sure Anthony Roberts wrote that Hexarelin is best used in cycles of 4 weeks on, 4 weeks off because it loses its effectiveness, but I don’t remember reading any G6 recommendations.
Thanks again and my apologies for so many questions!
Just wanted to post a quick update. I finally got all my supplies. Injected 100mcg about an hour ago, no increase in hunger. Gonna try 300mcg per day for a 3 months and I’ll report back with the results.

saps, you had insomnia at 800 mcg?
it’s made me extremely tired from 300-600 mcg, within 30 minutes im about to fall asleep[/quote]
Yeah I did. Now mind you that was 800mcg as a daily dose not all before bed. 5.0 noticed the same. But again like so many things YMMV. There are guys out there whose skin complexion gets better on cycle; mine like most gets a bit worse.

Shoot yeah, I had horrible insomnia when I dosed over 300mcg. And a very unnerving breathlessness. I felt like I couldn’t get enough oxygen. It was maddening! Those were doses taken right before bed.
Just checking in again. I’ve dosed up to 200mcg at once now. At this dose there is a slight appetite increase, but still what I consider controllable. Since realizing I can handle shots larger than 100mcg now, my dosage has gone from about 300mcg per day to 400-500mcg.
I do my last inject before going to bed. It could just be in my mind, but I feel like I’m sleeping deeper and getting an overall better quality of sleep with the GHRP-6.
Too soon to report on any possible effect on my joints or my physique yet.

Many report enhanced sleep and even ease of sleep with G6, Im not one but many do. IMO the hunger really is noticeable on 300mcg+. 500mcg at once which is a lot is a good idea if you wanna get your monies worth at an all you can eat buffet. But yes at 100-200mcg at once appetite surge is minimal.
I tried 300mcg the other day and definitely noticed the appetite increase. It took about 30 minutes to subside after I ate a protein bar and about 3.5 ounces of mixed nuts, which isn’t a ridiculous amount of food really. I didn’t really feel what I would call hypoglycemic symptoms (from what I’ve read), but my head just felt kinda “out of it” for that 30 minute period.
It’s been almost two weeks since I’ve had a cheat meal, so I’m going to give saps’ all-you-can-eat buffet dose a try and then walk over to this little Chinese buffet that’s down the street.
I feel like my muscles are looking fuller lately, and my definition has increased slightly. I am dieting though so of course fat-loss is expected, but normally I’d look more flat. Again it is hard to definitively say if it is the GHRP-6, but maybe.
Sounds good. And yes for most of us its hard to isolate the specific benefit that G6 gives. Shoot I’ve even used it off cycle and then I was bigger on it than I am now. I suppose because I no longer use it daily Im robbing myself of benefits but if used faithfully and thoroughly it certainly does something
On just 200mcg at bedtime over the course of 6 months (with 2iu’s of Blue Top GH in the AM) I tended to maintain mass but clearly was looking cut. Even at 200mcg I could (but didn’t for the most part) eat 24 hours a day… I was that hungry. I have to think this would be a wonderful supplement for someone looking to add lean mass? If they were willing to submit to the hunger issues and eat clean bulking foods.
While using this combo, I was eating very clean… hence the lean mass and definintion.
I remember taking my shirt off at the pool at the end of the 6 months and my then GF saying … Whoa! WOW! Nice!
I like when people say… WOW! Nice! (The Whoa! part isn’t always a good thing! )

Thanks for updating this with your results. Have you felt anything in regards to joint pain/relief? [/quote]
Hard to tell. The main thing I was hoping the GHRP-6 would do was help a chronically sore shoulder. I trained around it for a couple months and that did a lot as far as helping it feel better. Now my shoulder has been feeling good since I started the G6, but I think that has more to do with the rest. I’ve only been through one 5mg bottle so far, so I doubt the G6 is what helped me joints. I think the test will be how I’m feeling in a couple months or so, and you know I’ll keep you posted.
I’m up to 500-600mcg a day and at this dose my muscles are feeling fuller and I notice my strength is climbing as well, however again this could have to do with return from a lay off. The missus commented last night how my arms feel bigger and harder than they were a couple weeks ago.
How lean I look seems totally dependent on what I eat, but I would say the results are coming quicker than usual on a diet.
That is what I hoping to hear, as that is what I was hypothesizing, but was pretty unsure.
