Dr.PulmRoch — that is really helpful context on Iron deficiency on GLP-1 . Follow-up question: did you experience any side effects during this phase?

I am in a similar situation (about to start) and trying to set realistic expectations.

Want to share my personal experience related to Iron deficiency on GLP-1 what since I think it might help others in a similar situation.

I started my GLP-1 journey in March 2025 at 265 lbs with metabolic syndrome. My telehealth provider prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.

Now, 16 months later: I am down 60 lbs, my labs have normalized, and my sleep apnea has improved dramatically. The Iron deficiency on aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.

This forum was my go-to resource throughout.

Just wanted to say — for anyone reading this Iron deficiency on thread who is feeling discouraged: it gets better. The first month are the hardest. Hang in there. 💪
