The hair loss started around week 9 for me and I panicked. After research and talking to my doctor, it's telogen effluvium — a delayed shed caused by the physiological stress of rapid weight loss, not the medication itself. It slows down around month 4-5. Biotin and collagen peptides haven't hurt. Just wanted to share this so the next person isn't as scared as I was.

The tiredness in week 2 is very real. Be patient with yourself.

Anyone who says GLP-1 is 'the easy way' has never dealt with week 3 nausea.
