A note before you read on

Luna Metabolic exists to help you understand your options, and everything we publish is written in that spirit — as education, never as care. What you read here is general information about GLP-1 telehealth and women's metabolic health. It is not a diagnosis, a treatment plan, or a recommendation to begin, adjust, or stop any medication, and reading it does not make us your clinicians. No doctor–patient relationship is created by visiting this site.

Your body is the one that matters

Two women can read the same page and need completely different things, because your hormones, medical history, current medications, and goals are yours alone. Only a licensed clinician who can review your full picture is in a position to tell you what is safe and sensible for you. Please talk with that clinician before starting, stopping, or changing anything — and that includes GLP-1 medications as well as hormone therapy, PCOS treatment, thyroid care, and menopause management. Reaching out with questions is never an overreaction; it is exactly the right instinct.

If you are pregnant, nursing, or hoping to be

This is the point we most want you to sit with. GLP-1 medicines are generally not intended for use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, and guidance often advises stopping them well before you try to conceive. They can also change how your body absorbs oral medications, including some oral contraceptives, which is a real consideration if you are relying on the pill. If you are pregnant, nursing, planning a pregnancy, or simply keeping the door open to one, please raise it directly with your clinician before acting on anything you find here. Your circumstances deserve a conversation, not a web page.

Results are personal, not promised

Any outcomes described on this site reflect particular people in particular situations. They are not a prediction of what treatment will do for you. Weight, metabolic response, side effects, and how PCOS or perimenopause interact with a medication all vary widely from one woman to the next, and nothing here should be read as a guarantee of a result.

About compounded GLP-1 medications

Some telehealth providers offer compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide. Compounded medications are prepared by a pharmacy rather than manufactured and approved as finished products, so they are not FDA-approved and can differ from the brand versions such as Wegovy, Ozempic, and Zepbound in ways that matter. Whether a compounded option is appropriate for you is a clinical decision that belongs to a prescriber who knows your history — not something to settle from an article.

In an emergency

If you think you may be having a medical emergency, do not wait and do not rely on anything you read here — call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room right away.

About the provider information we share

When we describe a provider — its pricing, the states it serves, how it handles labs or oversight — we are relaying what that company has disclosed, not vouching for the care you would receive. Mentioning a provider is not an endorsement of it, and details like these change often. We work to keep what we publish accurate, but we cannot promise it is complete, current, or free of error, so please confirm anything that will shape your decision on the provider's own site and with your clinician.

If something here raises a question about your health, that is a good reason to reach out to a qualified healthcare professional who can answer it for you specifically.
