I respect lisa_labSD perspective but I think this oversimplifies things a bit. Re: Alopecia on GLP-1 need advice — the effect size varies considerably by population.

I am not saying lisa_labSD wrong entirely — just that the picture is more nuanced than a blanket statement. The SURMOUNT data specifically shows baseline BMI-dependent responses.

Reading this thread on Alopecia on GLP-1 need hits close to home. Dad of 2 checking in — I started at 281 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.

7 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 56 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.

If you are on the fence about Alopecia on GLP-1 — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️

MaxMetOK — that is really helpful context on Alopecia on GLP-1 need. Follow-up question: did you experience any side effects during this phase?

I am in a similar situation (about to start) and trying to set realistic expectations.
