Follistatin 344

FS-344 / FST-344 / Follistatin

A naturally occurring glycoprotein that binds and neutralizes myostatin, activin, and other TGF-beta superfamily members. Myostatin is the primary negative regulator of muscle growth — by inhibiting it, follistatin 344 removes the biological 'brake' on muscle development. The 344-amino acid isoform is the full-length systemic form with broader tissue distribution.

Evidence Overview

Strength of evidence across clinical, expert, and experimental lanes.

How Follistatin 344 is dosed in practice

Usually taken by subcutaneous (SubQ) injection. Typical range: 100 mcg/day. Half-life: Unknown (limited pharmacokinetic data). Each card gives the dose, frequency and duration from one evidence lane: Clinical (human trials), Expert (practitioner protocols) or Experimental (early or animal data). These ranges describe what has been studied or used; they are not a prescription.

Work out the units to draw with the reconstitution calculator, how long a vial lasts with the vial duration calculator, and how levels fall between doses with the half-life calculator.

experimental30% confidence

Underground bodybuilding community uses injectable follistatin for rapid muscle gain. Results are highly variable and controversial. Extremely expensive. Some users report noticeable strength gains within days; others report nothing. Quality and authenticity of research-grade follistatin is a major concern.
