Peptide therapy is an innovative treatment designed to help restore health naturally and effectively and return your body to its optimal function. Peptides, often referred to as the building blocks of proteins, are short chains of amino acids that play a crucial role in regulating biological processes throughout the body. While naturally produced, the body’s peptide levels can decline over time, leading to imbalances in various functions like hormone regulation, cognitive performance, and overall vitality. By mimicking the body’s natural peptides, peptide therapy helps enhance cellular communication, ensuring your body performs optimally for improved health and well-being.

Peptide therapy can be an effective modality for treating and improving a range of age-related health conditions, including but not limited to:

• Hormone imbalance
• Sexual disorders and dysfunction, including erectile dysfunction and female sexual dysfunction
• Insomnia and stress 
• Excessive weight gain
• Osteoporosis
• Inflammatory conditions
• Autoimmune disorders
• Accelerated wound healing and injury recovery
• Tissue repair, such as joints, tendons, ligaments, and bone
• Cognitive decline
• Declining growth hormone production
• Digestive disorders

At Tulsa Men’s Clinic, our medical experts have been at the forefront of peptide therapy for nearly 20 years, offering personalized treatments tailored to your body’s unique needs. Our years of experience and professional excellence in the fields of regenerative, anti-aging, and wellness medicine allow us to create truly bespoke plans that work synergistically with both your body and our complementing therapies to produce very specific reactions in the brain and body for optimal results. With targeted peptide therapy, we can help you achieve renewed energy, mental clarity, and physical and sexual performance for better overall function at every stage of life.

One of the key advantages of peptide therapy is its safety and precision. There are over 7,000 naturally occurring peptides, each with highly specific functions, making them effective and well-tolerated treatments. By binding to cellular receptors, peptides trigger the body’s natural processes without overwhelming the system, resulting in minimal side effects. Peptides have shown great promise in stimulating hormone production, improving libido, boosting brain function, and promoting cellular repair, while specific peptides—like those supporting neurogenesis and hormone modulation—have demonstrated the ability to improve mood, sharpen focus, enhance physical performance, and even combat age-related decline.

At Tulsa Men’s Clinic, peptide therapy is just part of your personalized treatment plan for rediscovering your best health. Before you start peptide therapy, our team of medical experts conducts a comprehensive laboratory assessment and in-depth testing to pinpoint the root causes of your symptoms, enabling us to develop a treatment plan tailored to your body. With ongoing monitoring and adjustments, as well as access to complementary treatments like testosterone replacement therapy and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, peptide therapy from Tulsa Men’s Clinic can help your body work better than it ever has from the inside out.

To help you achieve the results you deserve, Tulsa Men’s Clinic offers an array of specific peptide therapies, including:

 

Bremelanotide (PT 141)

Bremelanotide works by activating melanocortin receptors in the brain’s reward center, stimulating the release of dopamine to improve self-imagery, increase sensitivity to erotic stimuli, and reduce self-consciousness. It has been found effective in treating sexual disorders and dysfunction in both men (erectile dysfunction/impotence) and women (Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder).

With Bremelanotide peptide therapy, you can experience:

• Increased sex drive and sexual desire
• Increased sexual frequency
• Higher natural energy levels
• Relief from lethargy or tiredness

PT-141 offers more than just immediate effects—its benefits can extend to both your mental and physical well-being. Increased sexual activity has been shown to boost the immune system, improve overall mood, and, in women, promote better bladder control while strengthening pelvic floor muscles. For men, regular sexual activity may reduce the risk of stroke or heart attack, as noted by The American Journal of Cardiology. Additional benefits mirror those of regular exercise, including burning fat and calories, lowering blood pressure, and reducing stress levels, helping you feel healthier and more energized overall.

 

Semaglutide and Cyanocobalamin (B12)

Semaglutide is ideal for appetite control, weight loss, and increasing metabolism, and facilitates:

• Moderate and consistent weight loss with ongoing use
• Improved pancreatic function
• Delayed gastric emptying, resulting in reduced appetite and food cravings.
• Improved A1C levels, reducing the risk of developing diabetes or insulin resistance
• Increased energy with greater weight loss

Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonist, also referred to as an incretin mimetic, that works in the brain’s appetite centers to help slow digestion and reduce appetite. Cyanocobalamin (B12) helps the body convert food into energy, supporting a healthy metabolism and boosting energy levels by helping the body to use energy more efficiently. By combining the two, patients often experience greater weight loss results than using either treatment on its own, leading to additional benefits like:

• Reduced fatigue
• Improved mood and cognitive function
• Healthy blood and nerve cells
• Immune system support

HGH-Stimulating Peptide Therapy

Tulsa Men’s Clinic offers our custom, proprietary Restore protocol for HGH-stimulating peptide therapy that includes Sermorelin, Somatropin, Ibutamoren, and Tesamorelin for maximum, long-lasting results in everything from skin appearance and less daytime fatigue to better protein synthesis, enhanced cognitive function, and better sleep.

Sermorelin

Sermorelin  supports natural HGH production which is essential for overall cell regeneration and cell reproduction, leading to improved vitality, cognitive function, and overall anti-aging benefits. Sermorelin  is well-tolerated and safely increases your natural production of human growth hormone. And since it is a growth hormone secretagogue (which naturally increases your own natural growth hormone production instead of replacing it), they both are a much safer option than synthetic HGH.

Sermorelin can produce a wide range of anti-aging benefits, such as:

• Increased lean body mass
• Body fat reduction
• Improved energy and vitality
• Increased endurance and strength
• Accelerated wound healing
• Improved immune function
• Improved cardiovascular function
• Improved sexual performance and libido
• Improved sleep

Somatropin (Omnitrope)

Omnitrope is a bioidentical human growth hormone (HGH) designed to replicate the body’s natural somatotropin. FDA-approved since 2006 for treating growth hormone deficiency, it features an amino acid sequence identical to the HGH naturally produced by the pituitary gland. Administered as a daily injection, Omnitrope works by traveling through the bloodstream to restore and enhance HGH levels, supporting essential growth, cellular regeneration, and overall body function.

For amplified results, Omnitrope can be combined with testosterone replacement therapy. This powerful combination promotes increased muscle mass, improved strength, and enhanced physical performance, offering a synergistic approach to achieving your health, vitality, and wellness goals.

 

Norditropin (somatropin) and Zomacton (somatropin, rDNA origin)

Norditropin has been a trusted growth hormone therapy for over 25 years and remains the most prescribed HGH treatment on the market. It comes in a convenient prefilled injection pen, allowing for easy and reliable self-administration.

Zomacton is another highly effective HGH therapy, offering benefits comparable to Omnitrope, including improved growth hormone levels and enhanced overall well-being.

 

Tesamorelin and Ibutamoren

Tesamorelin, an FDA-approved HGH secretagogue, is highly effective at increasing IGF-1 levels and reducing visceral fat, particularly excess abdominal fat, while Ibutamoren stimulates growth hormone production by mimicking ghrelin, the “hunger hormone.” It binds to ghrelin receptors, which regulate appetite and food intake, triggering a significant increase in growth hormone release—up to three times higher—making it a powerful tool for growth hormone optimization.

 

Gonadorelin

Gonadorelin peptide therapy is a powerful option for men undergoing Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) who want to prevent testicular shrinkage and maintain fertility. As a bioidentical form of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), gonadorelin plays a critical role in regulating testosterone production and sperm count by stimulating the release of LH and FSH from the pituitary gland. By supporting natural testosterone production, it helps combat symptoms of low testosterone, such as fatigue, erectile dysfunction, decreased muscle mass, and reduced sex drive, ensuring optimal health and well-being while on TRT.

Selank

Selank is a powerful “anti-anxiety” peptide known for its ability to improve learning, memory, stress response, cognition, and overall energy while alleviating symptoms of depression. Unlike many prescription medications, Selank has been shown to reduce anxiety and increase serotonin levels without the risk of addiction or unwanted side effects. Additionally, Selank offers a range of other benefits, including:

• Aiding in alcohol withdrawal
• Preventing weight gain and reducing cholesterol
• Strengthening immune function

Semax

Semax is a nootropic peptide celebrated for its cognitive-enhancing and neuroprotective properties. Derived from the molecular structure of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), Semax increases BDNF (Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor) levels, promoting the formation of new neurons. This enables the brain to recover from injuries, adapt to environmental changes, and function more effectively overall. Semax is also used to:

• Improve non-proliferative diabetic neuropathy
• Aid recovery from stroke or hypoxia
• Treat ADHD
• Enhance glaucoma-related optic neuropathy recovery

Combined Benefits of Selank and Semax

Both Selank and Semax play a role in stabilizing and reducing the breakdown of enkephalins—essential peptides that help regulate pain, inflammation, immune activity, and emotional behavior. By maintaining balanced enkephalin levels, these therapies can reduce pain, improve attention and memory, and enhance learning capabilities. Selank is administered as a nasal spray, while Semax can be administered as either a nasal spray or subcutaneous injection.

Glutathione

Glutathione, a naturally occurring tripeptide made up of cysteine, glutamate, and glycine, is often called the “master antioxidant” for its vital role in neutralizing free radicals and reducing oxidative stress. Present in nearly every cell, glutathione is essential for a wide range of functions, including:

• Neutralizing harmful free radicals and oxidative damage
• Enhancing skin tone, brightness, and elasticity
• Supporting liver detoxification and toxin elimination
• Regenerating key antioxidants like vitamins C and E
• Strengthening immune system function
• Boosting cellular energy production
• Optimizing muscle and joint health
• Preserving cognitive function, focus, and mental clarity
• Supporting metabolism, fat burning, and weight management
• Promoting male fertility, including sperm formation and testosterone production
• Improving circulation in the arteries

Body Protecting Compound (BPC) 157

BPC 157 is a naturally-occurring peptide composed of 15 amino acids. It is derived from a protein found in human stomach lining and has been used by medical professionals for years to aid in tissue regeneration, accelerated wound healing, inflammation reduction, and improved blood flow. BPC 157 stimulates the cellular processes involved in tissue repair, including new blood vessel growth, cell proliferation, and the recruitment of  collagen-producing fibroblasts to injury sites. When used as part of a comprehensive plan and administered under the close supervision of the wellness experts at Tulsa Men’s Clinic, BPC 157 can be an effective treatment option for conditions like:

• Ligament and tendon injuries
• Bone fractures
• Nerve damage
• Muscle tears and strains
• Irritable Bowel Syndrome
• Joint pain and inflammation
• Erectile dysfunction
• Gastric Ulcers
• Immune dysfunction
• Recovery

CJC 1295 & Ipamorelin

CJC 1295 is a synthetic growth hormone releasing peptide that is highly effective at increasing growth hormone secretion and IGF-1, increasing levels by 200-1000% and helping the body maintain this elevated growth hormone production for up to 6 days. In addition to increasing muscle mass and strength, CJC 1295 promotes the slow wave deep sleep necessary for optimal muscle growth, memory retention, and rejuvenation.

Ipamorelin produces a similar increase in growth hormone secretion, but without the appetite stimulation or increases in cortisol, prolactin, and aldosterone. It mimics ghrelin, a hormone that initiates the breakdown of fat for energy while preventing the breakdown of muscle.

When administered together, these two peptides stimulate the pituitary gland in two different yet synergistic ways for optimized growth hormone production, activating more receptors and increasing growth hormone production 3- to 5-fold. Together, CJC 1295 and Ipamorelin also deliver benefits including improvements in:

• Insulin control
• Cardiovascular health
• Metabolism
• Calorie burning
• Lean muscle mass , muscle growth, and bone density
• Collagen production
• IGF-1 production
• Cellular repair and regeneration
• Immune function
• Cognition and memory
• Hormone regulation
• Energy levels and sleep
• Testosterone levels
• Libido
• Sexual health and performance

Yes, when administered under the care of experienced medical professionals like the team at Tulsa Men’s Clinic, peptide therapy is both safe and effective. At Tulsa Men’s Clinic, we use only high-quality, thoroughly researched peptides and nootropic supplements that have minimal to no side effects or contraindications. Our comprehensive approach includes detailed lab testing and bloodwork to ensure precise dosing and treatment tailored to your needs. Because peptides are naturally produced by the body, peptide therapy is generally well-tolerated, with extremely low risk of side effects, offering a safe and natural way to support your health and vitality.

 

Peptide therapy typically requires a “loading” period of 3-6 months to achieve its full benefits, such as increased muscle mass and reduced fat. This loading period refers to the time it takes for the treatment to reach maximum effectiveness. However, many patients notice improvements in sleep quality and energy levels within the first few weeks, with these benefits continuing to grow over time.

 

Peptides function in several important ways, including as…

• Structural components, contributing to the strength, density, and composition of muscles and bones.
• Transporters, assisting in the movement of chemicals, such as glucose, into muscle cells.
• Hormones, facilitating communication between tissues and cells.
• Enzymes, accelerating and stimulating vital metabolic processes.

 

Peptide therapy is very well tolerated since peptides occur naturally in the body and in food. Side effects, when they occur, are typically mild and related to the method of administration, such as pain, redness, or swelling at the injection site, or minor skin irritation from topical applications. These effects can be easily managed and resolved. To ensure safety and effectiveness, it’s important to undergo peptide therapy under the care of experienced medical professionals, like the team at Tulsa Men’s Clinic, who use only high-quality peptides and rely on comprehensive lab testing to customize dosages for optimal results.

Peptides and proteins are both made up of amino acids, but they differ in size and structure. Peptides are short chains of amino acids, typically ranging from 2 to 50, while proteins are larger, more complex structures composed of 50 or more amino acids. While all proteins contain peptides, not all peptides form proteins. The smaller size of peptides allows them to be more easily absorbed into the bloodstream, making them highly effective for therapeutic use.
