Strongest GHRP — powerful GH pulse

Muscle Growth
Half-life
~55 minutes
Route
Subcutaneous (SubQ)
Cycle
IMPORTANT: 4-8 week
Status
Clinical trials in cardiovascular disease and GH deficiency

About

Stronger than GHRP-2 and GHRP-6. Faster onset and higher GH pulse, but also faster desensitization. Popular in short cycles for intense bulking.

Mechanism

Activates the ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a) in the pituitary — a stronger pulse than other GHRPs. Also has cardioprotective effects.

Benefits

  • • Strongest GH pulse among GHRPs
  • • Faster muscle growth
  • • Cardioprotective effects
  • • Increased appetite
  • • Improved sleep

Side effects

  • • Rapid desensitization (after 4-8 weeks)
  • • Elevated prolactin and cortisol
  • • Hunger (intense)
  • • Transient water retention
  • • Lethargy after injection

Gender notes

Men

Same dose. Popular for bulking cycles.

Women

Lower dose (50-100 mcg) is often enough due to prolactin elevation.
