How did tesa cause you to lose "alot of lean tissue", how did you measure the lean tissue loss, and what is lean tissue

Sorry mistyped, lost 17lbs and gained lean tissue. I have a hume scale and track my body comp daily.

Lean tissue is muscle

That might be the study, as is 12mg for reta but there comes alot more side effects with doses. I lost 17lbs and alot of lean tissue using .6mg of tesa daily for only 2 months

That’s not really comparable. Retatrutide shows relevant fat-loss effects at doses well below 12 mg. Tesamorelin doesn’t have the same kind of evidence for lower doses.

If someone is aiming for the effect shown in studies, then the studied dose matters. What you do with that information is up to you.

Also, Tesamorelin’s fat-loss effect appears to be more visceral than subcutaneous, not general fat loss. Since its a GH/GHRH the lean mass is probably just the result of water-retention and is measured on these type of scales as lean mass

Im very happy with my results. And as a hyper responder I always start low and slow, seems to work well for me. Of course everyone has to figure out how their body responds.

I feel like everyone should get their IGF-1 levels tested before running any secretagogue. I did and found out my natural levels are 257, so it leaves me wondering if Tesa would even do anything beneficial.

Yeah, there are more receptors in the visceral fat therefore its more affected than subcutaneous

I got mine tested and got an 87! My Tesa is on the way

2mg is the study dosage for relevant fat loss, 1mg is more for IGF-1 levels

2mg is the only prescription dosage, not only study/trial dosage. I don't think Tesamorelin is being prescribed at all "for IGF-1 levels."
