TirzTom's experience with SHBG changes during resonates deeply with mine. I went through almost the identical process β€” starting dose, titration timeline, side effects, everything.

The main difference: I had more GI issues initially. But the overall trajectory has been remarkably similar. Down 45 lbs in 10 months.

One thing I would add that TirzTom did not mention: insurance coverage was a major hurdle.

Clinical perspective on SHBG changes during weight loss on GLP-1:

I have managed over 200 patients on GLP-1 therapy and this topic comes up frequently. What the data shows β€” and what I see in practice β€” is that the medication works best as part of a comprehensive approach.

For this specific question, I would recommend: getting comprehensive baseline labs first.
