How Does Wegovy Work?
Suppressing Appetite
Wegovy contains semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist that mimics a natural hormone in the body responsible for controlling hunger. This hormone acts on areas of the brain that regulate appetite, sending signals that promote satiety. By reducing feelings of hunger and cravings, Wegovy helps you consume fewer calories, aiding in weight loss.
Slowing Gastric Emptying
Wegovy also slows the rate at which food leaves the stomach, a process known as gastric emptying. This causes food to remain in the stomach longer, increasing feelings of fullness after meals, which, in turn, helps you avoid overeating and reduces the temptation to snack between meals. By enhancing satiety, Wegovy promotes gradual, sustained weight loss.
Regulating Blood Sugar Levels
Wegovy improves the body’s ability to regulate blood sugar by enhancing insulin secretion and reducing glucagon levels. This helps maintain stable blood sugar levels, which is critical for individuals with weight-related health issues like Type 2 diabetes. Balanced blood sugar also contributes to reduced fat storage and better overall metabolic health.
What Are the Side Effects?
Like any medication, Wegovy may cause side effects, such as nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and constipation. These side effects usually lessen as your body adjusts to the medication. Some people may also experience fatigue or mild headaches. Serious side effects are rare but can include allergic reactions or gallbladder issues. At Optimal Well MD, our team will monitor your progress and adjust your treatment plan to minimize discomfort and ensure your safety.
How Much Weight Can I Expect to Lose?
With Wegovy, you can expect to lose 10-15% of your body weight over time, depending on your individual response and adherence to the treatment. Most people begin to see noticeable weight loss within the first few months.
The results improve with continued use, especially when combined with lifestyle changes like a balanced diet and regular physical activity. At Optimal Well MD, we’ll track your progress to help you reach your weight loss goals safely.
