Losing weight fast on GLP-1 drugs? Your hair could be the next thing to go

This side effect, often telogen effluvium, stems from nutritional deficiencies and metabolic stress.

Studies show a high prevalence of hair shedding, particularly among women and significant weight losers. Doctors advise medical supervision and balanced nutrition to manage this temporary condition.
