BPC 157 vs Deca - Joint function

ad

For starters, I have used AAS for 20 years, starting out how most of us do with the broscience protocols. Then researched over the years and learned things I wish I knew earlier on. I am now on trt and will add in a 4/6 week stint of 30-50mg winstrol or 50-70mg of Anavar once a year during the summer, never taking test above 240mg a week. I enjoy lifting heavy 3 or 4 months out of the year and typically will run 8-12 weeks of deca at 200mg a week as it has a positive impact on my joints.

I know there’s some back and fourth about the legitimacy of Deca having a positive impact on joint function. Placebo or not, as mentioned I’ve used Deca at only 200mg/wk and seen improvements in joint function, I was curious on experienced users who have used both. Please correct me if I’m wrong in my research but it seems BPC 157 is probably safer on the body but appears to be far more expensive? The overall cost isn’t a problem for me, I am looking for feedback on if those who have used both feel it’s worth the cost difference or if the results aren’t too far apart.

My shoulder bothers me sometimes when i do heavier OHP or incline press. Running even a lowish dose of 150 mg/wk of deca starts to really decrease the pain in 3ish weeks or so. Within maybe 5 weeks it's all but gone. But within 2-3 weeks of stopping it starts to come back. So it doesn't fix the problem. It just hides it for a while.

GH is supposed to increase collagen production in the body. Why not look into that as well?

Bp157 is purported on medical sites to heal internal organs and not joints. Its documented for example to help with kidney disease.

Deca adds fluid to the joints and purported on medical sites to boost collagen as is eq et al. The downsides of deca is it masks injuries as well. Meaning that the fluid retention adds comfort and acts as a mild pain reliever. So the heavy lifting feels pain free but youre actually not feeling the injuries getting worse.

Also helps heal tendons and ligaments. My TRT doc told to get on it right after I tore my bicep tendon. Partial tear. Recovery was light speed.
