What This Paper Covers, in Plain Language
What It Covers
The paper reports a study of Exogenous HGH, sermorelin & older GHRPs (why they're passed over) and CJC-1295 (no DAC), Mod GRF 1-29, published as a review.
The study used "netnography" to explore female use of CJC-1295, a synthetic growth hormone analogue from the perspectives contained in Internet forum activity.
Who the Included Studies Covered
PubMed tags the participants as women only.
A systematic Internet search was conducted using variation of the term "CJC-1295"; and combined with "forum." Ninety-six hits related to bodybuilding websites where CJC-1295 was mentioned.
Following application of exclusion criteria to confine to female use and evidence of forum activity, 9 sites remained.
How the Review Was Done
These were searched internally for reference to CJC-1295.
Twenty-three discussion threads relating to female use of CJC-1295 formed the end data set, and analyzed using the Empirical Phenomenological Psychological method.
What Was Measured
Topics PubMed links to this paper include Body Image, Decision Making, Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone, Human Growth Hormone, Peptide Fragments and Self Care.
Author keywords: CJC-1295 and netnography.

Our Notes on the Compounds
Exogenous HGH, sermorelin & older GHRPs (why they're passed over): Constant levels suppress the body's own GHRH, raise somatostatin and dull pituitary response.
CJC-1295 (no DAC), Mod GRF 1-29: A modified GHRH(1-29) with four amino-acid swaps for stability; short-acting, unlike CJC-1295 with DAC.
CJC-1295 with DAC: A long-acting GHRH analog that binds albumin; human studies showed GH and IGF-1 rises lasting days after one injection.
