Tesamorelin is a synthetic analog of Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone (GHRH).

Instead of injecting growth hormone directly, Tesamorelin stimulates your own pituitary to produce growth hormone in a physiologic pattern.

That distinction matters.

  • Reduces visceral fat

  • Improves waist circumference. Tracking waist size with a tape measure is a practical way to estimate how much visceral fat a person has and monitor changes during peptide therapy.

What Tesamorelin Does:

  • Increases endogenous growth hormone

  • Reduces visceral adipose tissue (VAT)

  • Improves waist circumference

  • Supports IGF-1 balance

  • May improve liver fat markers

Tesamorelin has been studied extensively in HIV-associated lipodystrophy, where it significantly reduced visceral fat without the same degree of subcutaneous fat loss.

In functional medicine and longevity-focused care, we use it strategically in patients with:

  • High visceral fat on imaging or InBody

  • Central adiposity resistant to diet and exercise

  • Low IGF-1 with metabolic dysfunction

  • Early fatty liver patterns

Why It’s Different from GLP-1s

GLP-1 medications reduce appetite and slow gastric emptying.

Tesamorelin works upstream by improving growth hormone signaling; which influences:

  • Fat partitioning

  • Lipolysis

  • Muscle preservation and supports the ability to build muscle and build muscle mass

  • Metabolic flexibility

This makes it especially valuable for patients who:

  • Have lost muscle on GLP-1s (Tesamorelin not only helps preserve muscle but also supports muscle repair)

  • Plateaued with weight loss

  • Carry disproportionate abdominal fat
