Who qualifies for Semaglutide

When you complete your online medical questionnaire, the EU-licensed doctor looks for specific criteria to determine if Semaglutide is appropriate for your weight loss journey. Generally, Semaglutide is prescribed for adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or greater (obesity), or a BMI of 27 kg/m² or greater (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity (e.g., high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia).

Contraindications that might prevent a prescription include a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2), pancreatitis, or severe kidney disease. The doctor individually reviews your full medical history, current medications, and any allergies to ensure your safety.

What Semaglutide actually does (and doesn't do)

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It works by mimicking a natural hormone in your body that regulates appetite and blood sugar. Here’s how it helps with weight loss:

• Reduces Appetite: You feel fuller for longer, which naturally leads to eating less.
• Slows Digestion: Food stays in your stomach longer, enhancing feelings of satiety.
• Regulates Blood Sugar: It helps your body manage insulin and glucose levels.

This isn't a magic pill; Semaglutide is most effective when combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. Weight loss is gradual, typically over several months, not weeks. Expect realistic results, not overnight transformations. The doctor guides you on what to expect during your treatment.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Semaglutide has potential side effects. The most common are mild and gastrointestinal, especially when you start treatment or increase your dose. These include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation. Most patients find these subside as their body adjusts.

It's important to communicate any persistent or severe side effects to your doctor through the private in-app chat. In rare cases, more serious side effects can occur, such as pancreatitis or gallbladder issues. Your EU-licensed doctor monitors your progress and advises you on when to stop or adjust your treatment if necessary. Always follow their guidance.
