Kisspeptin-10 is a peptide produced in the hypothalamus that stimulates the release of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) which then causes luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) to be released from the pituitary gland. Kisspeptin plays a major role in the control of reproductive hormones in both men and women.
Kisspeptin also plays a role in the normal control of ovulation (release of an egg from the follicle in the ovary during the menstrual cycle). Research studies have shown that Kisspeptin can be used to improve egg quality and sperm mobility during fertility treatments.
Research also suggests that it may be used by men who are undergoing testosterone replacement therapy and often used instead of hCG to boost the body’s down testosterone and prevent testicular atrophy.
Science-Backed Research
- Regulate fertility and increase sexual desire
- Improve ovarian function and the quality of eggs produced by ovaries
- Enhance spermatogenesis, resulting in higher sperm count and better sperm quality
- improve the quality and function of sperm, including their mobility
- Prevent testicular atrophy and increase the body’s production of testosterone naturally
- May offer benefit in reproductive disorders such as Idiopathic Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH), hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA) and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)

Because peptide injections are very similar to peptides that naturally exist in the body and in healthy foods, peptides are typically safe to inject and have very few side effects. The FDA has categorized peptides as GRAS (considered to be generally recognized as safe) ingredients.
The side effects of peptides depend on the specific type of peptide and the method of consumption. Some common side effects associated with peptides include:
- Injection site reactions such as redness, pain, swelling, bruising and itching
- Flushing sensation
- Digestive issues like nausea, diarrhea, and other digestive symptoms.
- Hormonal imbalances caused by growth hormone-releasing peptides (GHRP)
- Suppressed natural hormone production

If you're thinking, "I have no idea what peptides are," don't worry, you're not alone. We can blame our biology teacher later. However, I'm sure you know common terms such as insulin, oxytocin, collagen. These are all peptides.
As a matter of fact, the human body naturally produces more than 7,000 known peptide types. With this many peptides, they are used in a wide variety of the body's systems and are essential to the way we function and age.
Peptides are very tiny proteins made up of short chains of amino acids. They signal the cells in your body to act in certain ways. As a result, peptides are responsible for how you function, feel, look and live overall. Since different peptides affect different cells and functions, they can be highly tailored and targeted to treat a full spectrum of health, wellness, fitness, metabolism, aging and cognitive conditions.
