Asked on Reddit: How do I recover from a big money mistake?

JUL 30 – Hair loss linked to GLP-1 drugs is typically temporary telogen effluvium caused by rapid weight loss, with up to 40% of hair follicles affected, dermatologists say.

  • Reports show significant hair shedding with Wegovy and Mounjaro use, as many taking Ozempic notice hair loss beyond weight changes despite no official side effect listing.
  • This type of hair loss occurs, called telogen effluvium, which causes sudden, diffuse shedding often triggered by rapid weight loss rather than the medication itself.
  • Shedding can start two to three months after treatment and increase from 50–100 to 300–500 hairs daily, usually returning to normal within six to 12 months.
  • Using low-dose oral minoxidil shows promise, as clinicians report great results with it and in-office procedures for advanced shedding.
  • Endocrinologist Caroline Messer, MD recommends prioritizing protein, iron, zinc, and B vitamins, and clinical studies of Nutrafol have demonstrated improved hair growth and density, all without stopping GLP-1 therapy.
