[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most weightloss clinics are using semaglutide now in their programs.  Wegovy and Ozempic are brand names, but the md is available in off-brand.  You don't have to go through your pcp for this medication.  Cost will be between $200-$500 month.  Insurance isn't going to pay unless you have a great plan and you're significantly overweight or are pre-diabetic (or already have diabetes).  I am trying to wrap my head around paying $350 (my clinic's charge) for the rest of my life (if that's what it takes??).  I guess I spend that much on other silly stuff, so if I have to do it, I suppose I will.[/quote]

What clinic do you go to?[/quote]

I am out of state, but see a gynecologist/menopause specialist in a woman's health clinic.  I called my husband's lifestyle doctor and found he also does the program for about the same cost.  BTW, a lifestyle doctor is one whose practice prescribes hormone therapy, nutritional supplements.  They focus on anti-aging, regenerative medicine, full body health and wellness.  Frankly when my husband first started going for T supplementation, I thought the doc was a quack.  I'm opening my mind to them as I start understanding more, but I also recognize these are doctors/clinics that not everyone can easily afford.[/quote]
