Completely agree with Dr.ReproEndo. I would add that Has anyone dealt with glp-1 also has implications for body composition that sometimes get overlooked in these discussions.

Key clinical points:

3. Monitoring should include baseline labs and follow-up at 3-month intervals
4. Patient education significantly improves outcomes and adherence
