How long should recovery peptide cycles typically last?

Most recovery peptide protocols in clinical settings follow cycles of 4-12 weeks, followed by a break period of 2-8 weeks to prevent receptor desensitization. For injury-specific applications like BPC-157 and TB-500, an 8-12 week cycle is commonly used, sometimes with an initial 1-2 week loading phase followed by a maintenance schedule. Many practitioners implement a "5 days on, 2 days off" weekly dosing pattern to help maintain receptor sensitivity throughout the cycle.
