[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve heard horror stories about it causing major digestive issues—either severe constipation or the opposite—and that gives me pause every time I think about trying it. I’ve been fighting to loose an extra 15 pounds of menopause weight for while now. [/quote]

I started with microdosing since I had a similar amount to lose. So injection is .15 as opposed to the lowest prescription dose of .25. It works without a lot of the digestive upset. Maybe a little at first but I’ve adjusted.

I also don’t lose weight quite as quickly but am down 12 pounds in about as many weeks. I will add it has almost eliminated my peri symptoms including night sweats which has been a bonus. But hair loss is real. Not overwhelming but definitely happening.[/quote]

I noticed a couple posters mention hair loss. Is that a side effect of the GLP drug, or is that something that happens anyway with rapid weight loss due to cutting calories?

And if it is a drug side effect, does it happen with all of the GLP drugs or just some of them? Does a smaller dose prevent it?[/quote]

I didn’t lose weight rapidly. Less than a pound a week. I still lost a lot of hair. So much I had to stop. The hair loss stopped when I hadn’t had a shot in around 3 weeks.

A lot of people on the internet will tell you that it’s NOt the shot, it’s rapid weight loss. But many of us have experienced hair loss, including the day after a shot a good amount of hair coming out.

It shouldn’t prevent you from taking the shot, but pay attention to it. Unfortunately I noticed after I had already lost a good bit of hair.
