Hey broskis,
So about 2 months ago, I bought GHK-Cu peptide after seeing people here recommend it. Got it raw from AliExpress — 100g for $30.
When I started, I dissolved it in boiled tap water so that 0.5 ml = 5 mg active. Ever since then, I’ve been getting these totally random fever episodes roughly every 2 weeks. My temp spikes to 40°C for about 4 hours, and I have to take 600 mg ibuprofen to get through it.
About 1.5 months ago, I switched from boiled tap water to sterile 0.9% saline, store it in the fridge, and inject it with an insulin syringe 5x a week (split between both glutes). But the fever thing still happens. And honestly, it’s annoying as hell because that day is just ruined.
What’s worse — after 2 months, I’ve seen zero improvement in my skin. My pores are huge, skin texture is bad (no active acne though), but the peptide doesn’t seem to be doing anything.
I also started derma-needling my face with 1.5 mm every 3 weeks — only did one session so far, and holy f***, it was painful (didn’t use any numbing cream).
Has anyone had fever reactions like this from GHK-Cu? I can’t find any mention of it online. I’m thinking maybe I should switch to topical use twice a day and combine it with daily 0.25 mm derma-needling.
