Semaglutide is an injectable medication used for treating overweight and obesity. It is similar to a hormone called GLP-1 that is released naturally by the body after eating. Semaglutide helps a person feel full sooner while eating less and reduces cravings.
Semaglutide works by activating receptors in the brain that reduce appetite. It also slows down food leaving the stomach and increases feelings of fullness. Over time, taking semaglutide shots results in eating less food, lowered body weight, and decreased BMI.
Weight loss from using semaglutide has many health benefits:
Many people struggling with excess weight also have an underlying hormone imbalance causing increased appetite and weight gain. Common hormone deficiencies include thyroid, cortisol and sex hormones.
Symptoms of a hormone imbalance include:
Detecting a hormone imbalance requires specific blood tests. The doctors at Renew Hormone Clinic use advanced testing to check the following hormone levels:
Based test results, customized treatment plans are created to restore hormone balance.
Renew Hormone Clinic specializes in advanced hormone replacement protocols to help patients lose weight by balancing hormones.
An underactive thyroid gland reduces metabolism causing weight gain, fatigue and sensitivity to cold. Correcting low thyroid hormone levels with medications containing T3 or T4 can relieve symptoms and kickstart weight loss.
Having low cortisol levels causes sugar cravings, increased belly fat and low energy. Optimizing cortisol rhythms with timed-release hydrocortisone can reduce appetite and abdominal obesity.
Deficient testosterone reduces muscle mass and strength while increasing body fat. It causes low libido, fatigue, irritability and depression.
Restoring testosterone levels allows men to regain fitness, positive mood and an active lifestyle conducive to weight loss.
Low estrogen after menopause is linked to weight gain, particularly increased abdominal and hip fat. Balancing estrogens can help control appetite and normalize fat distribution.
Individuals with multiple hormone deficiencies can benefit from customized programs that address thyroid, cortisol, sex hormones and growth factors simultaneously. This comprehensive approach is more effective for weight loss than targeting hormones in isolation.
Renew Hormone Clinic doctors tailor combination therapies based on symptoms and lab test results. Follow-up testing determines optimal hormone levels for each patient.
Achieving long-term weight loss involves lifestyle changes along with hormone therapy. Renew Hormone Clinic providers offer guidance on implementing healthy habits.
Key lifestyle recommendations include:
Semaglutide is structurally similar to a human hormone called GLP-1. When injected weekly, it helps lower blood sugar levels and body weight by decreasing appetite. However, it was originally developed as a potential new diabetes drug, not specifically to aid weight loss, before showing promise in that area too.
