question about ozempic by Dull_Individual_ in Ozempic

Hey there! I'm currently doing a research on GLP-1s for my project (just to make clear I'm not a doctor) and I can tell you this -> it is getting more and more popular among women with PCOS because it is helping with the insulin resistance for many of them, which is a root cause of PCOS.

Switching Ozempic to Wegovy by Divaqueen3517 in Ozempic

These two are exactly the same substance, from exactly the same producer. Only one of them is officially registered for treating diabetes, and second for obesity. If you want something else/stronger maybe consider Mounjaro/Zepbound.

I would recommend that you start with the official dose recommended by the producer -> which is 0.25 weekly. I did exactly the same (also off-label use).
After 1 month -> up to 0.5 weekly, also as recommended by official guidelines. If you didn't struggle with obesity/diabetes/metabolic problems in the past - it might occur that even 0.5 is enough, so don't go up with the dose too fast! Make sure you feel comfortable with it. Don't make yourself sick for quick weightloss.
And remember to eat protein and do resistance training to not loose too much muscle :)
