I’ve got a friend who’s struggling with PCOS and I was wondering if Retatrutide is actually the way to go for that? Or maybe there's something else out there that works better for her specific situation.
Just for some context, she’s been on 3mg of Reta for about three weeks now, but the scale hasn't really budged at all. She's a vegetarian and the 3mg dose definitely seems to be suppressing her appetite-she’s barely eating maybe two or three times a day and even then it’s just tiny portions. Since she's barely eating but still not losing, I'm trying to figure out if she should stick with it or try a different approach.
wow that sounds frustrating, especially since she’s barely eating and still not seeing results
sometimes GLPs like Reta work differently depending on hormones and conditions like PCOS
three weeks is still pretty early, but if appetite’s down and weight isn’t moving, maybe her body is holding onto it
being vegetarian can change how your macros and insulin sensitivity play into fat loss too
she might need to tweak diet composition or add some activity, not just rely on the drug
maybe a consult with an endocrinologist or someone familiar with PCOS + GLPs could help guide the dose
patience is key, but also watching for side effects is important since appetite suppression is already intense
