Our GLP-1 weight loss treatments in Frederick, MD, are designed to support appetite control and blood sugar regulation, aiding in weight management when used alongside a healthy lifestyle. At Genesis Lifestyle Medicine, we offer individualized care to help you manage your weight in a sustainable way.
GLP-1s belong to a class of medications known as GLP-1 receptor agonists, originally developed to aid in blood sugar management for individuals with Type 2 diabetes.
These treatments work by mimicking hormones that regulate appetite, helping users feel satisfied with smaller amounts of food and experience prolonged feelings of fullness. One of the ways GLP-1s aid in sustainable weight management is by slowing stomach emptying, which can help reduce overall calorie intake and support gradual, steady weight management.
Your weight management journey in Frederick, MD, begins with a comprehensive consultation to assess your health and goals. Based on this assessment, we’ll create a customized plan that may include GLP-1 treatment if suitable for you. Our team will monitor your progress and make adjustments as needed to support your journey.
GLP-1 treatments are administered through a once-weekly injection. We provide clear instructions to ensure you feel confident in performing these injections at home.
The duration of GLP-1 treatment varies based on individual goals and progress. Our team will conduct regular check-ins to evaluate your experience and adjust the dosage if necessary.
Some individuals may experience mild side effects such as nausea or digestive discomfort, especially at the beginning of treatment. These effects typically lessen as the body adjusts.
