Healing protocols for this injury

[Scorch]

I had a tibial plateau fracture a couple years ago and ended up with 7 screws and a plate in my leg. I recently went to check up with the surgeon who did my final surgery and he recommended running a short test/HGH cycle. There was no further direction after the statement. I am making progress, but still have muscle atrophy in my left leg. Someone else said test/anavar/hgh. Any recommendations on test dosage, length of cycle, GH vs. MK-677 or Sermorelin? I've seen PCT including Clomid, Novadex, Armidex, HCG, etc. Any recommendations would be great as this is very new for me.

Spend a little more time on the left leg than your right. As far as the gear, I'd do 200 test prop. No sense in going crazy and just build from there if that's the route you want to go.

Late reply, but getting inflammation and pain under control doesn't mean any underlying injury is healing. Just like the case of the friend in the original post. He plays rugby, it hurts him, then it eventually feels better. He posted that it's a torn tendon, a ruptured ligament, and bursitis. I'm sure BPC157 would help the inflammation/control pain, including the bursitis, but it's not going to heal a torn tendon and ruptured ligament.

Right on. Now he's got more information and more research to do to make the best choice for him/friend.

100% True

I have no ACL and half a meniscus in my left knee, I popped it again last week grappling, and I think it's the 11th or 12th time in 2 years. Taking BPC reduces the inflammation and swelling and makes the return to activity normal but won't compensate for a torn ligament

I'll do my best to post up some articles on here since there seems to be a lot of confusion and I want to make sure everyone reads up.

There's a big misconception with inflammation being the sole benefit of BPC. Mainly due to it being the easiest to find. Sikiric et al., 1993–2020 by a Croatian research team. The new trials show evidence of BPC increasing VEGF( Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) which plays a key role in angiogenesis new blood vessel formation and tissue repair and there is current ongoing research that supports osteogenesis from VEGF, specifically VEGF-A. There is also a study that show BPC-157 enhancing VEGF mRNA and protein levels, likely through signaling cascades that promote endothelial cell proliferation and migration.

I highly encourage you guys to do your research when it comes to this stuff and look for confluence. Don't take my word for it or anyone elses. There's plenty of members here that report healing benefits that aren't looking to heal "inflammation". Which btw, would be KPV.

I always viewed the main benefit of BPC being the angiogenesis aspect, and viewed TB as more for inflammation.
