When to Take Growth Hormone: Morning vs Night

If you’re using growth hormone (or considering it), timing should align with your goals. Night dosing—whether with direct GH injections or with GH-boosting peptides—supports brain repair, deep sleep, and glymphatic clearance, which can help cognitive recovery and morning sharpness. Morning dosing is less likely to disrupt circadian rhythms and may enhance daytime fat-burning and improvements in body composition. Peptides like CJC‑1295 and ipamorelin stimulate endogenous GH release and follow similar timing principles, offering a more gradual, long-term approach than direct replacement. Choose timing based on your priorities and individual physiology, and work with a clinician experienced in hormone optimization to personalize your plan.
