What people say about Tesamorelin and weight loss

“I also added Tesamorelin 2 months in due to the harder time sleeping on Retatrutide and wanting to accelerate the burn of my visceral fats (2mg 5x a week). Worked like magic for me.”

Growth hormone axis treatments for HIV-associated lipodystrophy: a systematic review of placebo-controlled trials

Conclusion: Our review indicates that, based on the findings of the 10 included studies, GH axis treatments are effective in reducing VAT and increasing LBM in patients with HIV-associated lipodystrophy. However, clinicians must decide whether the attributed benefits are clinically significant, considering the costs and potential risks of GH axis treatments. A limitation of this study is the small number of studies available of each GH axis drug class.
