What Is Ipamorelin?
Ipamorelin is a pentapeptide growth hormone releasing peptide (GHRP) known for its selectivity. Unlike older GHRPs, it stimulates growth hormone release without significantly affecting cortisol or prolactin levels — hormones that can cause undesirable effects.
How Does It Work?
Ipamorelin binds to ghrelin receptors in the pituitary to stimulate a clean pulse of growth hormone release. This makes it one of the most studied GHRPs for recovery, sleep quality, and body composition research.
