Testagen (Khavinson)

100 mcg daily SubQ 8-16 week course
10-20 mg Oral Daily
Testicular tissue regulatorGene expression modulator

Testagen (Lys-Glu-Asp-Gly) is a Khavinson bioregulator tetrapeptide targeting testicular tissue gene expression. It supports Leydig cell function, Sertoli cell maintenance, and testicular hormone production pathways. Complementary to HCG (direct LH receptor stimulation) for comprehensive testicular support during TRT.

Quick Start
Route
SubQ injection
Start low
100 mcg SubQ
Frequency
8-16 week course
Timing
No fasting required

Starting dose. 100 mcg — Daily

SubQ injection, any time of day. 10-20 day courses, 2-3 cycles per year with 4-6 months between courses (Khavinson protocol). Pin alone or with other bioregulators only.

Start here. Every protocol below is ordered lowest-first. Begin at the smallest effective dose, hold about a week to assess tolerance, and step up only if needed.

animal study · Khavinson et al., Advances in Gerontology, 2010
Does not replace testosterone, but rather attempts to rejuvenate the Leydig cells to restore endogenous production. Human use has been published, but almost entirely by a single research group in Russian-language journals. None of it is registered on any trial registry and most reports were unblinded, so this evidence is far weaker than a controlled trial. This is the ORAL capsule dose and is not an injection dose. Oral peptide absorption is poor, so this figure is far higher than the injectable protocol on purpose. Do not inject this amount.

How it works

Testagen modulates gene expression in testicular tissue (Leydig cells, Sertoli cells), supporting steroidogenic enzyme expression, LH receptor sensitivity, and spermatogenic support pathways at the gene level.

Claims we could not support

No abstract we checked supports these for this molecule at this route. That is not the same as saying they are false — it marks where the evidence is missing.

Exact-molecule abstract evidence. ESearch was run and 2 source-candidate PMIDs were EFetch-checked; no usable exact-molecule abstract sentence was found.

Dose/route: 100 mcg daily; SubQ injection; 8-16 week course. No selected live abstract sentence verified this complete regimen.

Mechanism as written in source JSON. No selected live abstract sentence verified the complete mechanism at the card formulation/route and relevant population/model.

Primary safety claim as written in source JSON. No selected live abstract sentence verified the complete safety claim for this exact formulation and route.

The honest take

Testicular rejuvenation

Bioregulatory gene expression modulation targeting testicular tissue. Complementary to direct hormonal stimulation (HCG).

05

Interactions & stacking

Two different questions: what is documented about running these together, and what is documented about drawing them into the same syringe. A good pharmacological partner can still have to be pinned separately.

Pin alone. Testagen must not share a syringe with anything else, whatever the pharmacology says. PIN ALONE.

Documented together

HCGTestagen targets testicular gene expression, HCG stimulates Leydig cells directly. Complementary testicular support.
ProstamaxTestagen testicular + Prostamax prostate. Complementary male reproductive support. Run in sequence.

Keep separate

GHK-CuCopper degrades bioregulators.

Check any specific pair in the Stack & Interaction Checker, which answers both questions separately. Absence of a documented conflict is not evidence of safety.

06

Side effects & safety

Commonly reported

  • Very well tolerated

Less common & notes

  • Monitor testosterone and estradiol if on TRT.
  • Excellent safety profile.
