Mounjaro vs Metformin 

What was your dose? 1000mg 2xs a day especially starting out will ‘cause GI issues.. ask your MD if you can start at a lower dose and titrate up

@@NurseViv i’ll have to get back to you for the correct dosage but I think it was 500 once a day

Such an ignorant comment. Meds have been prescribed off label for decades. No one made a big deal when a heart med all of a sudden was prescribed to thousands of men with erectile dysfunction aka VIAGRA…. Yup off label. Pcos leads to diabetes for many women. Thats why metformin and glp meds like Mounjaro are prescribed to many with pcos. Losing weight isnt as easy as eat less move more for people with Chronic lifelong Obesity. Its extremely complicated. The metabolism is broken. Its genetics, its a brain issue its so much more. Someone with pcos and metabolic syndrome cannot sustain a caloric deficit as someone who doesnt have obesity. These meds help correct the issues, help correct the hormones and put you in an even playing field to be able to get into that calorie deficit and lose the weight. They are not miracle drugs. You still have to diet and exercise, its just possible now with meds like Mounjaro. So much bias against them because they are helping obese people finally. Sure there are many on them who shouldbt be but there are many on them without diabetes YET who they are helping. Why is that an issue. Oh because fat phobia and the misinformation and the old school …calories in calories out mentality that clearly has failed most with chronic obesity. Speak to an actual obesity specialist and get facts and stop listening to the media and gym bro coaches who have never been obese and have zero clue on how complicated the issue really is.
