Rebuilding a Severed Hamstring with Oral BPC‑157 – My 8‑Week Protocol
Posted by aspiring_trailrun in Healing & Recovery - 1 points, 0 comments.
I tore my left hamstring playing football last autumn. Physical therapy helped me get back to walking but the scar tissue left my muscle feeling tight and weak. Around that time I started reading about BPC‑157. The oral formulation seemed practical – no needles, just a capsule. I set a routine of 500 µg twice a day, taking one dose before training anda second after. I kept the course steady for eight weeks, monitoring any side effects. I didn’t feel the nausea or GI upset that a few friends mentioned, probably because I decorarated the meals with a light snack before the first dose.
After six weeks I noticed my squat depth improving by roughly 10 cm and the stiffness around the hamstring had lessened. By week eight I could run two miles without the sharp ache that once stopped me. The recovery felt smoother than my standard rest‑and‑rehab alone.
Anyone else using oral BPC‑157 for tendon issues? How long did you keep the cycle?
