Timeline Overview

Tesamorelin works by signaling your body to release its own growth hormone overnight, so changes build gradually as the growth hormone axis activates. Some effects are noticeable early, while fat reduction develops over months.

Early Weeks

• Most patients notice deeper, more restorative sleep within the first few weeks as growth hormone pulses overnight.
• Many report easier training tolerance and steadier daytime energy as the growth hormone axis activates.

Over 6 Months

• Studies show a 15-20%+ reduction in deep belly fat over 6 months, the primary outcome Tesamorelin is designed for.

Protocol Length and Cycling

Tesamorelin follows a cycle protocol to prevent the body's receptors from becoming desensitized (down-regulation):

• On for 5 days (Monday through Friday), then 2 days off.
• Check in with your provider every 3 months (send a message in your patient portal) to review your treatment plan and progress.

Note: Results vary by individual. Your care team will set expectations at intake.
