Medical Therapy Options for Weight Loss and Perimenopause

For some patients, medication may be considered as part of a comprehensive, medically guided approach to weight loss and perimenopause. These decisions are based on a thorough evaluation of your health history, metabolic factors, and individual goals.

When appropriate, FDA-approved GLP-1 medications such as Wegovy or Zepbound may be considered as part of a medically guided plan. Treatment recommendations are individualized and based on current clinical guidelines, availability, and patient-specific needs.
