E-mailed propeptides in relation to this and was advised as follows:

"RoA for BPC is almost always subq, but has almost no sides. There’s some variations that allow decent oral (and/or sublingual) administration – but the actual figures on how effective this is varies wildly so generally not advised considering the cost of the peptide unless you’re really dead-set against injections. Nasal doesn’t work as the particle is too large.
Hair growth with this peptide as far as I’m aware is all anecdotal so wouldn’t advise it for this purpose based on a purely scientific viewpoint. It does have some other benefits but probably would advise you skipping this one if you’re only looking for something for your hair.
TB500 (or Thymosin Beta 4) is also pretty much only subq – there’s a couple suppliers that have jumped on the oral hype from BPC to release oral versions but they wouldn’t work.
TB500 has wide-covering research on hair growth so this is an option if you were considering trying subq again. You shouldn’t expect the same flushing/nausea you did with MT2 for this peptide.
Not something we sell, but another option that you didn’t mention would be minoxidil. This too has rather extensive studies with very promising results, not only for thickness, but also for regrowth. This is a topical application as a slightly oily spray/foam to your scalp.
This can be paired with finasteride for further benefits that neither alone can offer.
The main thing with hair growth/loss/thinning is that you’ll always be battling testosterone (or more specifically, DHT). These medications (peptides or traditional meds) will take a couple months to really begin working, will need to be used continually and then will lose the effects ~4-6 weeks after stopping."
