Women experiencing menopause are increasingly using unregulated peptides—compounds not approved for this purpose—as an alternative treatment, despite their lack of oversight. Online communities have formed around these substances, with users creating coded language to discuss them on platforms like Instagram and TikTok, where such content often risks removal. The rise reflects broader frustration with limited medical options and the influence of social media in normalizing untested solutions. Concerns about safety and long-term effects remain unaddressed as demand grows.
More and more women are turning to unregulated peptides to battle menopause. They've even developed their own slang, in part to evade content moderation on Instagram and TikTok.
