Interesting opinion from my doc
25F
I started Zep bound in March 2025. My starting weight was 214 and my current weight is 156. It has changed my life in every which way. My periods are 100% back to normal, my acne is gone, I have energy… it’s just amazing.
Anyway my doctor keeps pushing me taking metformin while on Zep bound saying “you will gain all of this weight back if you’re not on metformin when you go off of Zep” and she said “Ok you’ll have to take Zep for the rest of your life if you don’t want to take metformin”
My fasting blood glucose is 89. This has stayed the same during my weightloss journey. It’s within the normal range. I’ve tried metformin years ago and it was awful. Zepbound is 10x better and 100% worth the out of pocket cost, to me.
Why is she saying this to me if my insulin and blood glucose levels are normal and have been normal before weight loss? Has anyone else heard this before?
TIA
