Enclomiphene- Summary
- KPV is a naturally occurring anti-inflammatory tripeptide derived from the C-terminal of alpha-MSH. It powerfully suppresses intestinal and systemic inflammation via melanocortin receptors, making it valuable for IBD, gut healing, and wound repair.
- Enclomiphene is the trans-isomer of clomiphene citrate, a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) that stimulates endogenous testosterone production by blocking estrogen negative feedback on the hypothalamus and pituitary. Unlike TRT, it restores testosterone while preserving or increasing sperm production and testicular volume.
- Half-Life
- Short half-life (~15–30 minutes), but effects persist longer due to receptor-level anti-inflammatory cascades
- 5-7 days (long half-life; accumulates)
- Admin Route
- Oral, SubQ, Topical
- Oral
