Testagen vs Vesugen
Side-by-side comparison of key properties, dosing, and research.
- Summary
- Testagen is a tetrapeptide bioregulator (Lys-Glu-Asp-Gly) developed by Professor Vladimir Khavinson, tissue-specific for the testes. It supports Leydig cell function, normalization of testosterone biosynthesis, and spermatogenic activity. Testagen is used in men's health protocols for age-related testosterone decline, male fertility support, and testicular anti-aging.
- Vesugen is a tripeptide bioregulator (Lys-Glu-Asp) developed by Professor Vladimir Khavinson, tissue-specific for blood vessels and the vascular endothelium. It supports endothelial cell function, promotes vascular wall integrity, and is studied for atherosclerosis prevention, vascular aging, and cardiovascular health maintenance. It is one of the more broadly applicable Khavinson bioregulators given the ubiquity of vascular tissue.

- Key Benefits
- Supports endogenous testosterone synthesis via Leydig cell normalization
- Promotes spermatogenesis and sperm quality
- Anti-aging effects on testicular tissue
- May attenuate age-related testosterone decline
- Mechanistically distinct from TRT — does not suppress HPG axis
