How it works

Kisspeptin binds KISS1R on GnRH neurons, triggering GnRH release. This drives LH/FSH from the pituitary, supporting testicular/ovarian function.

Protocol notes

Clinical protocols vary widely. Subcutaneous research dosing of 1–10 mg every 1–2 days is reported. Often used in HPG-axis restart contexts.

Reported side effects

Limited human safety data. Possible HPG axis disruption with chronic use, headache.
