To a certain degree, yes. BHRT and TRT indirectly support the hormone imbalances that are causing weight gain. Hormonal imbalances, such as low testosterone levels in men or imbalances in estrogen and progesterone levels in women, can contribute to weight gain or difficulty losing weight. BHRT and TRT aim to restore hormonal balance, which may help individuals regulate their metabolism and energy levels, making it easier for them to maintain a healthy weight. BHRT and TRT should always be coupled with a healthy diet, exercise and stress management to achieve weight loss goals.

A patient can lose 5%-15% of their body weight over the course of the first 90 days. Although uncommon in most cases, side effects are possible. Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea may occur but these symptoms usually subside after a few weeks of using the medication.
Medications like semaglutide, coupled with healthy lifestyle changes can take control of risks of high blood sugar and diabetes by increasing insulin secretion, suppress hunger and increase the feeling of fullness to regulate body weight.
Semaglutide is an FDA-approved medication, and is clinically-tested, stimulant-free, and non-habit forming. Side effects are extremely rare, and most individuals who take semaglutide do not experience any. For those who do, nausea is the most common, and this typically resolves over the first few weeks of being on the medication. In the most recent clinical trials, less than 5% of people discontinued medication because of side effects.
Semaglutide has been shown to dramatically improve body composition by reducing excess body fat and increasing lean body mass. A recent trial testing 1,961 obese adults discovered that patients who injected semaglutide lost close to 15% of their body weight, on average over the placebo.
Although these results prove the medication’s effectiveness in assisting with weight loss goals, it’s important to note that diabetes and obesity should also be met with holistic lifestyle solutions. Semaglutide will often be prescribed in conjunction with doctor-approved exercise, diet plans and behavioral adjustments.
