New study suggests possible connection between GLP-1s and hair loss in men

quote:

Hair loss has become one of the most reported concerns among people taking GLP-1 drugs, such as Ozempic, Wegovy and Zepbound — so much so that the phenomenon has earned the nickname “Ozempic hair.”

Several studies have investigated whether these drugs are linked to hair loss, but none has shown that the medications themselves cause hair to fall out. Now, new research offers a clue about a possible biological connection between GLP-1s and thinning hair — at least in men.

In the study, published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, researchers at NYU Langone Health found a link between higher levels of the GLP-1 receptor in the blood and male-pattern hair loss. The finding doesn’t mean that men who take GLP-1s will definitely develop male pattern hair loss, but it suggests that these medications could be contributing to what people are observing.

They're so smug about their miracle drug too. Good, more side effects

If hair loss is an overall side effect of GLP-1 medications, but taking them ultimately helps someone become healthier overall -- and gives them more confidence, I think that for many that would be a trade off worth exploring.

Hair loss is often a side effect of overall stress or bad health.

Many of these people are still metabolically unhealthy so this doesn’t shock me at all.

Hair loss is a side effect of rapid weight loss, whether it be from fasting, gastric bypass or glp1

These fake hormones, aka GLP- 1 agonists, have some serious side effects:

These side effects are even listed on their website.

quote:

Ozempic® may cause serious side effects, including:

Possible thyroid tumors, including cancer. Tell your health care provider if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, hoarseness, trouble swallowing, or shortness of breath. These may be symptoms of thyroid cancer. In studies with rodents, Ozempic® and medicines that work like Ozempic® caused thyroid tumors, including thyroid cancer. It is not known if Ozempic® will cause thyroid tumors or a type of thyroid cancer called medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) in people

Do not use Ozempic® if:
you or any of your family have ever had MTC, or if you have an endocrine system condition called Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2)
you have had a serious allergic reaction to semaglutide or any of the ingredients in Ozempic® injection or Ozempic® tablets

Before using Ozempic®, tell your health care provider if you have any other medical conditions, including if you:
have or have had problems with your pancreas or kidneys
have a history of vision problems related to your diabetes
have severe problems with your stomach, such as slowed emptying of your stomach (gastroparesis) or problems with digesting food
are scheduled to have surgery or other procedures that use anesthesia or deep sleepiness (deep sedation)

are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. It is not known if Ozempic® will harm your unborn baby. You should stop using Ozempic® 2 months before you plan to become pregnant
are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. Breastfeeding is not recommended during treatment with Ozempic® tablets. It is not known if Ozempic® when received through an injection passes into your breast milk

Now data is coming in that there are possible side effects of BLINDNESS:

Do GLP-1 Drugs Like Ozempic Cause or Prevent Vision Loss?

quote:

ORLANDO, Fla. — Since a study published last year found that patients taking GLP-1 drugs — the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy — may be at higher risk of developing an eye condition that can cause blindness, researchers have been working to learn more about a possible connection to vision loss. Two new studies presented this week at the 129th annual meeting of the American Academy of Ophthalmology offer mixed results: one found GLP-1 drugs can increase the risk of diabetic retinopathy and non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION), while another study suggests the drug may offer protection against dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

What most folks don't know is that the human body produces GLP-1 NATURALLY.

Fowlkes are lazy and want to eat a bag of Doritos and guzzle down a 2 liter bottle of soda and eat 2 Quarter pounders and want to loss weight.

The irony would be if this is tied to increased testosterone from losing weight

The hair loss is reversible. When you loose weight rapidly you develop telogen effluvium, basically early shedding of hair. This was seen in 3-5% of study participants. Hard to say what role if any the drug accumulation in the scalp causes. I would rather lose a little hair temporarily than die of an MI at 50 because I’m morbidly obese.

It's better to be bald than fat.


Being bald wouldnt negatively impact my life in any way I could think of. Being fat would negatively impact my life in many ways.

Nutrafol will negate that issue. It’s good stuff.

Not sure how people handle the weight loss drugs, but you don’t go from 0-60 at the beginning. You start off with a small dose, make headway, upgrade to the next does if needed, and repeat.

People go for the home run on day one and that’s probably a big issue.

Then you have the people taking the black market GLP, and going on a binger for immediate results. God help you.

Found the perfect spokesman, especially if it also causes your testicles to fall off.

Are there any side effects of nutrafol that require even more meds, etc.?
