Peptide Therapy Cycles

Meaning

Peptide Therapy Cycles describe the structured, intermittent administration of therapeutic peptides, typically involving periods of active use followed by planned periods of cessation or lower-dose maintenance. This cyclical approach is a clinical strategy designed to maximize the efficacy of the peptides while preventing potential receptor desensitization or negative feedback on the body’s endogenous hormone production axis. The duration of the active cycle and the subsequent rest period are carefully calibrated based on the specific peptide, the patient’s physiological response, and the clinical goals. Cycling is essential for maintaining the body’s responsiveness and preventing a reliance on exogenous signaling.
