KPV and GHK-cu

[Not_Your_Dad]

Greetings all!

Mrs. Not_Your_Dad (45f) has some skin issues, longstanding neck and shoulder pains, worsening trouble with both her thumbs, and some other nagging troubles. We've had a chat about including some other peptides into both of our routines (I'll make a separate post about me at some point), and she has settled on GHK-cu and KPV. We had initially discussed either GLOW or KLOW, but she is alarmed by the potential correlation between angiogenesis and acceleration of neoplasia and/or metastasis, which unfortunately has a long and deep history in her family. While I don't share her concerns regarding that, I ultimately think it is a reasonable position to take, and if that's what her comfort level is, that's what it is.

She'll be beginning KPV tonight, starting at a 200mcg pin, titrating up to a 500mcg pin after 4 weeks, and running a 12 week cycle. I'll report back if she notices any changes, has any issues, or otherwise anything changes for her. Our GHK-cu is on the way, and she'll likely begin that in one week's time after she has a chance to assess the results of the first week of KPV.

I'll be updating this a data point for anyone who may be interested in it. If anyone has any thoughts, anecdotes, questions, concerns, etc. please feel free to share them here.

Currently, she pins 12.5mg tirzepatide once weekly, and follows a moderate supplement protocol we've developed over the years that help mitigate her hypothyroid/Hashimoto's symptoms.

I suggest mixing your KPV and GHK-cu to reduce ISR. I personally started with GLOW, but have the same concerns with angiogenesis and family history so now I pin my GHK with my KPV. 50mg GHK-cu, 10mg KPV, 3mL Bac Water - pin 2mg daily, 6 weeks on, 3 weeks off
They say supplement with Zinc to keep levels in balance. I already take a thyroid med that has Zinc in it so I call that good.

41F - hypo/hashis - I feel her pain.

I had to go GF and Dairy free, its helped a lot. I take Reta, it doesn't help as much as Tirz for the inflammation but I think it has less gastric suppression... which I need, because my hashis already slows my digestion to a snails speed.

I've seen many folks reference pinning GHK-cu with KPV; are you reconstituting in the same vial, or do you draw from separate vials into the same syringe?

Her supplement protocol has her at 100mg zinc once daily, so she should be good there.

Appreciate your experience and input!

For anyone following along at home, Mrs. NYD has survived her first week on KPV 😛

She hasn't noticed much of an impact, but the dose is quite low at the moment and I don't think she was expecting much at this stage. We've been married for a long time, and I think I've subtly noticed her mentioning and complaining less about her typical aches and pains.

Our GHK-cu has still not arrived, so we won't be adding that to the mix at this point. She has one more dose of 200mcg and then we'll be moving up to 300mcg tomorrow.
