Kisspeptin-10 Dosage Chart & Schedule

A decapeptide fragment of kisspeptin, a key upstream regulator of reproductive hormones, studied in fertility and reproductive-neuroendocrine research.

Route
Subcutaneous
Frequency
Single bolus or timed infusion
Half-life
Very short
Storage
Lyophilized frozen; reconstituted refrigerated.
The short answer

Kisspeptin-10 has no established therapeutic dose. In reproductive-neuroendocrine research it is given as short subcutaneous or IV boluses (or timed infusions) in the mcg range to probe GnRH and downstream LH/FSH signaling, and its half-life is only minutes.

Figures describe how Kisspeptin-10 is reported in the research literature and research-community references — not a recommendation for human use. For laboratory research only.

One-off administration in a research setting

No standard regimen exists; doses are experimental probes, not treatment.

Very short-acting

  • Circulating half-life is on the order of minutes.
  • Longer-acting forms such as kisspeptin-54 are studied when sustained exposure is wanted.

No standard regimen

  • Published doses are study-specific - boluses versus infusions, often weight-based.
  • They are experimental probes of the reproductive axis, not established protocols.

Dosing is only as good as the vial. Research-grade peptides are third-party tested with published COAs from our top-rated source — reconstitute with confidence and skip the guesswork on identity and purity.

From vial to injection in 6 steps

1

Wipe both vial tops

Swab the peptide vial and the bacteriostatic-water vial with fresh alcohol and let them dry.

2

Draw the water

Pull the planned amount of bacteriostatic water (2 mL) into the syringe.

3

Add it slowly

Run the water down the inside wall of the vial — don't blast the powder. Swirl gently; never shake.

4

Let it dissolve

Wait until the solution is fully clear, then refrigerate the vial.

5

Draw your dose

Pull the calculated units on a U-100 insulin syringe.

6

Store between uses

Keep the reconstituted vial refrigerated and use within its stable window.

Handling & storage

  • Reconstitute a lyophilized vial with bacteriostatic water; refrigerate the solution.
  • The minutes-long half-life means timing relative to sampling matters more than a daily schedule.
  • Investigational - there is no validated human dose or cycle.
  • Keep lyophilized powder frozen and protected from light until use.

Kisspeptin-10 dosing FAQ

Is there a standard kisspeptin-10 dose?

No. It is investigational, and dosing in the literature is set per experiment - as a bolus or an infusion, frequently scaled to body weight - to study reproductive-hormone signaling.

Why is it given as a single bolus or infusion rather than daily?

Its half-life is only minutes, so studies use a bolus or a controlled infusion to capture the short LH/FSH response rather than a standing daily dose.

How does it differ from kisspeptin-54?

Kisspeptin-54 is longer-acting, so it is chosen when researchers want sustained stimulation, whereas kisspeptin-10 produces a brief, sharp signal.

Subcutaneous or intravenous?

Research uses both routes; the choice depends on the protocol and whether a rapid bolus or a steadier infusion profile is wanted.
