I'm overweight and going through menopause. Ugh!
Intermittent fasting used to work but not anymore and because I'm not "obese" my doctor won't prescribe me any GLPs. My waist has gone from 30inches to 38 inches. Where can I find affordable GLPs online? There is so much information and sellers out there, I'm worried about getting ripped off or scammed. What are some affordable companies/websites to get it from without insurance? Interested in Zepbound, I hear it has less side effects. Any tips for would be appreciated. |
| I used Eden and had a good experience. |
| The Wegovy pill direct from the manufacturer is $150 per month for the lower doses. I would be wary about taking anything from an online source. |
| I used willow and it was super easy. You can’t get the drugs from the manufacturer without a prescription, but you may want to find a different doctor to prescribe if you want the real deal… A Doctor Who will not prescribe these for a woman in menopause seems pretty outdated to me. |
| Have doc send rx to novo nordisk directly or Costco directly. $349 a month |
OP said Doc is not prescribing Rx. |
| Are you extremely tall? Generally, a waist circumference greater than 35" would suggest abdominal obesity. |
OP here. No, I'm 5'4" ish. 142lbs. |
| You are not obese, therefore you shouldn't take GLP-1. Try reducing your calories and moving your body more. |
Not necessarily true, my BMI is stuck at 25.1 and glp 1 was the first option floated by my provider at my last 2 annual exams. Of course she also said insurance wouldn't cover it but it was an option nonetheless. |
The mid dose is now $299.00. Insurance will not pay. I find it hard because being overweight has so many challenges. High blood presser, strokes and diabetes. How much are these drugs in Canada. The average person cannot afford this. I guess only the wealthy can afford to be a healthy weight. |
| Once you get to micro dosing, it’s a lot cheaper. A vial meant to last a person a month now lasts me 3 months. |

Orderly Meds works great and is affordable at $149 for compound. No scam

Same. I use Goby meds and 3 months (3 vials) was $350. And then once I started microdosing, those vials last me so much longer. |
