Hair shedding can be an unexpected and frustrating concern for some people during their weight loss journey.

For patients using GLP-1 medications, increased shedding has sometimes been connected to rapid weight loss rather than the medication alone. When the body goes through a major change, hair follicles may shift into a resting phase, leading to noticeable shedding a few months later.

Other factors may also play a role, including low protein intake, nutrient deficiencies, thyroid concerns, hormonal changes, or physical and emotional stress.

The good news is that this type of hair shedding is often temporary, and support is available. If you are noticing changes in your hair as you lose weight, our compounding pharmacy can work with your provider to explore personalized options tailored to your individual needs.

Hormones play an important role in how the body functions, and progesterone is one of the key hormones involved in women’s health.
Progesterone helps support the menstrual cycle and can influence areas like sleep, mood, and overall hormone balance. When progesterone levels change, some women may notice symptoms such as irregular cycles, sleep changes, mood shifts, or other concerns that affect daily life.

Bioidentical progesterone is designed to match the progesterone naturally made by the body closely. For some patients, a personalized approach may be helpful when standard options are not the right fit.

Every woman’s needs are different, which is why it is important to talk with a qualified healthcare provider about symptoms, health history, and available options.
