GHK-Cu Dosing Guide

Systemic: 1–2mg 2–3x weekly subcutaneously. Topical: 0.1–0.5% daily. Check serum copper before starting - excess copper can be problematic.

Blood markers to track

Serum copper (baseline - optimal 90–140 mcg/dL)CeruloplasminP1NP (collagen marker)

Note: Check serum copper before starting. Part of Glow Stack (GHK-Cu + BPC-157 + Epithalon). Topical formulations widely available.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the standard GHK-Cu dose?

Systemic: 1–2mg 2–3x weekly subcutaneously. Topical: 0.1–0.5% daily. Check serum copper before starting - excess copper can be problematic.

How do I reconstitute GHK-Cu?

Add 5mL of bacteriostatic water to a 50mg vial of GHK-Cu to get a concentration of 10000 mcg/mL. This gives 2000mcg per 20 units on a 100-unit insulin syringe.

What blood markers should I track while running GHK-Cu?

Common biomarkers tracked alongside GHK-Cu protocols include Serum copper (baseline - optimal 90–140 mcg/dL), Ceruloplasmin, P1NP (collagen marker). Establishing a baseline panel before starting and re-drawing labs at consistent intervals lets you measure changes against your own reference point, generic lab ranges are less informative than your personal trend over time. MyProtocolStack tracks each of these biomarkers in the context of your active GHK-Cu protocol.

WHAT TO DO NEXT

You have the dose. Now track whether it’s doing anything.

Log every GHK-Cu injection alongside your Serum copper (baseline - optimal 90–140 mcg/dL)and Ceruloplasmin readings. Compare draws over time in your free dashboard, so the next change you make is based on your numbers, not a guess.
