GHRP-6 Timing & Hunger Spikes: My 3-Week Test
Posted by elle774 in GH & Growth Peptides - 3 points, 4 comments.
So I started GHRP-6 last week at 200mcg pre-bed, tbh I wasn’t sure if it’d work. My sleep tracker showed more deep cycles, which I liked 🧪, but the hunger was brutal. Like, legit stomach growling by 2am even after eating.
I re-measured doses and moved it to 100mcg twice daily, morning and before bed. Still got appetite jumps, especially post-workout, but less at night.

- retired_vo2max: I’ve been on GHRP‑6 too. The 200 µg bedtime hit me hard on the gut, but the deep‑cycle boost felt real for me. Switching to 100 µg split helped a lot – the night I ate my dinner and it didn’t spike until the workout. I usually pair it with a protein shake after training, and the appetite jump is milder. What’s your pre‑workout meal like? I’ve found a small carb‑protein combo(dimish) keeps the post‑workout hunger in check.
- brandon245: I’m with you on that. I usually hit a quick 15‑minute run and then grab a banana with a versucht protein bar right after. It seems to blunt the post‑workout craving a bit. What’s your pre‑workout snack look like, and have you noticed any difference when you tweak the timing of the GHRP‑6?
- elle774: I usually do a small oat‑meal with a scoop protein, a little before the run. tbh the 100 mcg twice still makes me hungry after the workout. I’ll try your banana + protein‑bar combo right after the 15‑min run and maybe move the 100 mcg dose to 10 pm instead of 9 pm. Do you notice a difference when you delay the bedtime dose by 30 minutes?
- elle774: thanks for the tip about the protein shake – tbh, I haven’t tried that yet but will test it tomorrow 🧪. my pre-workout is usually just black coffee and maybe eggs, so maybe that’s why hunger still spikes. also, your “dimish” combo sounds smart – what ratio do you usually do? I’ve been fearing carbs but maybe alive queen needs a little sugar 😉
