Hi im 22 year old female, 5'2 73 kgs from Pakistan. Ive been obese as a teen and lost weight to come till 65 but i always gain back , ive been "dieting" mostly keto since age 16 .. and gain weight back every time so now stuck in 70s . I alwats gain back once i start eating normal or carbs. Carbs make me crave sugar like crazy.
I have all the pcos symptoms but never got clinically diagnosed...because once when i was 16 i went to gynae and she was angry at me for my weight. So i never tried again
Im a med student now so i do know that i might have pcos. Recently i went to an endocrinologist few weeks ago because im exhausted of trying to lose weight since earliest of my memory hoping he would help
So this is how it went
I sat, i started telling him about my weight gain and diet cycle and that i have binge eating issue (yeah forgot to mention earlier) , he asked me if i have some work up done. No. But he said "lets start GLP?". Didnt even ask if i have pcos or anything. I asked if u gonna give me some tests. He said yes he is writing but u can start on GLP before getting tests since LH FSH will be on 3rd day of my periods I was v nervous throughout
Thing is idk if i should do it without my tests. But also should i even do it? Was he selling it to me? What made him instantly go for it?
Ik it has benefits but im not even diagnosed pcod ...which i will get diagnosed now asap.
Please give me your advice its been a week ive been pondering over this. I even ordered my injection
Im genuinely desperate to lose weight because im gaining like crazy now that im having exams and cant go to gym or diet atm im so scared of gaining all my weight back again
Hi , i am 22 year old female of 73 kgs , i was initially 85kg plus since 18 year old and been doing keto on and off since age of 16, i was tired of losing gaining same 20 kgs again and it has drastically affected my mental health and i have developed BED , i do have all the pcos symptoms but never got clinically diagnosed cuz this one gynae scared the shi out of me.
i went to an endocrinolgist today and he abruptly said lets start GLP, even tho that was what i was aiming but still made me doubtful since he didnt inquire alot and just heard about my binge and recommended it, he did give me lots of labs to get done but said i can start right away 0.25 mg for 4 wks then 0.5mg for next and 1mg for next
only fears i have is what will happen when i stop? is my dose transitioning too high very soon? is it ok for my age. i dont want get rebound weight im scared of going back to levek 1 , im stuck in this cycle for forever now.
i will do strength training and eat high protein, but still please let me know if someone who has discontiued and havent gained weight
