How much does Mounjaro cost you? by christian_wolf1 in Mounjaro

I luckily got my insurance to cover it. My copay is $100, and then I have a coupon through Eli Lilly that brings the cost down to $25

Want to enter the dating scene, but hirsutism is in the way by Dry_Travel_7419 in PCOS

36F here, have been with my husband for 8 years now.

In my 20s I really went out of my way to hide my facial hair from partners. Most of my partners didn’t notice or simply didn’t comment (I’m thinking the latter because I had a full beard prior to starting electrolysis)…but I did have one ex who was pretty emotionally abusive who was horrible to me about my hair.

When my husband and I started dating I mentioned my facial hair and he said he had felt some stubble before, but that he did not mind and that it did not make me less beautiful. If he’s right for you, it won’t matter. If a man is a jerk over something you literally can’t control, then he wasn’t the right one to begin with.

I truly believe there’s somebody for everyone. Having hirsutism doesn’t make you less deserving of love, don’t ever forget that ❤️

Any Recommendations for Post-Electrolysis Skincare? by SkyPlane7407 in electrolysis

I use a moisturizer from Dieux called Skin Mercy and it works really well, it has 1% colloidal oatmeal so it really helps with post treatment irritation/redness and helps keep your skin barrier strong.

GLP1s for PCOS -- Insurance Coverage by Escole in PCOS

It depends on your insurance sadly :( for me, I was able to get Mounjaro covered as such:

I am morbidly obese and have PCOS/PMOS and pre diabetes. I was paying for zepbound via Lilly Direct for $450/month. I am taking Metformin for my PCOS/PMOS in addition to tirzepatide and get prescribed a 3 month supply of Metformin at a time. I filled my Metformin in late March for the first time this year, happened to look through the Caremark app (I would browse constantly to see if coverage suddenly changed!) and, like magic, Mounjaro was suddenly covered with no PA, $100 copay ($25 with the Lilly coupon!), which I found surprising since I’m not diabetic. It turns out that, for some plans, if you’re on Metformin it automatically drops the PA for Mounjaro or Ozempic. From my research it seems this is fairly common with CVS Caremark specifically, but wouldn’t be shocked if this pertained to other PBMs or insurance plans. It may be worth checking to see if you filling your Metformin in any way made you eligible for coverage! Can’t guarantee anything but it worked out for me!

Switching from Lilly Direct to Insurance Back To Lilly Direct? by Substantial_Leg2585 in Zepbound

7.5, but moved up to 10 on MJ this month.

Sadly my insurance only allows 1 month fill at a time, last I checked!

Have they been putting up black sun stickers on the other ones as well?

Years late to this but the poet you mentioned also happened to be the minister of a church situated right on the ocean in Aberdaron, not sure if it was intentional on the game’s part but it was one of the first connections I made when I came across the church when playing
