Tesamorelin Body Composition: Treatment Comparison

Tesamorelin 2mg daily 15–20% reduction 3–5% reduction Stable to +1.5kg GHRH receptor agonist → pulsatile GH → selective VAT lipolysis Gold standard for visceral fat targeting. Minimal effect on appearance-based fat loss Growth Hormone 2–4 IU daily 12–18% reduc

This comparison does not assign a generated winner or score.

  • Tesamorelin 2mg daily
  • 15–20% reduction
  • 3–5% reduction
  • Stable to +1.5kg
  • GHRH receptor agonist → pulsatile GH → selective VAT lipolysis
  • Gold standard for visceral fat targeting. Minimal effect on appearance-based fat loss
  • Growth Hormone 2–4 IU daily
  • 12–18% reduction
  • 8–12% reduction
  • +2–4kg
  • Direct GH receptor activation → generalized lipolysis + anabolism
  • Broader body composition effects but higher cost and side effect burden
  • CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin
  • 5–8% reduction
  • +1–2kg
  • GHRH + ghrelin mimetic → moderate GH pulses
  • Moderate efficacy at lower cost. Less selective than tesamorelin
  • Semaglutide 2.4mg weekly
  • −2–3kg lean mass
  • GLP-1 agonist → appetite suppression + weight loss
  • Effective for total fat loss but reduces lean mass. Opposite selectivity profile
