5 Peptide Therapies Women Are Exploring During Menopause

Navigating menopause is no small task—especially for high-performing women who want to stay sharp, strong, and vibrant during this phase of life. While hormone replacement therapy remains a common approach, more women are also exploring the world of peptide therapy as part of their longevity and wellness strategies.

I recently came across insights from Dr. Vass, a longevity-focused MD trained at Cornell, who emphasizes healing the root cause rather than just managing symptoms. He shared five peptide combinations that he recommends to women during menopause. I found it worth passing along for those who are curious and doing their own research:

1. CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin
   This combination supports deeper sleep, lean muscle development, and fat loss—issues many women struggle with due to hormonal shifts.
   

2. Tesamorelin
   Backed by FDA approval for other uses, this peptide is known for targeting visceral fat, a stubborn and dangerous type of fat that can increase during menopause.
   

3. BPC-157 + Thymosin Beta-4
   Often used together to support joint health and tissue repair, these peptides may help with inflammation, joint pain, and mobility—common complaints as regenerative hormones decline.
   

4. PT-141
   This FDA-approved peptide helps with libido and sexual arousal, a topic often under-discussed but very real for many women during menopause.
   

5. GHK-Cu (Copper Peptide)
   A favorite in regenerative skincare, this peptide promotes collagen, skin elasticity, and healing, addressing concerns like skin thinning and dullness.

It’s important to note peptide therapy is an emerging field and not all peptides are FDA-approved for general use. These therapies are often prescribed off-label by functional or longevity-focused practitioners. While anecdotal results are promising, anyone considering peptides should consult with a qualified physician or peptide specialist to see what’s appropriate for their body, lifestyle, and medical history.

I'm simply sharing information, not giving medical advice—because when it comes to women’s health, the more we know, the better we can advocate for ourselves.
