Just wanted to say — for anyone reading this Fibrosis regression thread who is feeling discouraged: it gets better. The first 6 weeks are the hardest. Hang in there. 💪
As a healthcare provider, I want to add some clinical context to this discussion on Fibrosis regression on GLP-1 is.
Building on what julia.endo said — the evidence base here is well-established. The key publications to reference are from the SELECT program[1].
Key clinical points:
- Efficacy is dose-dependent and typically requires 4-5 weeks to reach steady state
- Side effect profile is predictable and usually manageable with standard protocols
- Monitoring should include baseline labs and follow-up at 3-month intervals
- Patient education significantly improves outcomes and adherence

Gonna push back on this one. Fibrosis regression on GLP-1 is is not that straightforward in my experience. I have been on this for 18 months and the reality is messier than the trials suggest.
Don't get me wrong — the medication works. But adherence is harder than people admit. We should be honest about that.
