Not losing weight on a GLP-1 after menopause? You’re not imagining it, but your body isn’t broken and the medication hasn’t stopped working. In this video, I’m Dr. Mohammed Paika, board-certified in internal medicine and obesity medicine. I break down what the research really shows about GLP-1s like tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound) and semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) after menopause.

You’ll learn what menopause does to fat, muscle and metabolism, and how much weight women actually lose at each stage of menopause in the clinical trials. I’ll show you why real-world results can lag, what the newest hormone therapy studies show and why they don’t prove cause and effect, and how to protect your muscle and bones. I’ll also walk you through the 5-step plan I use with my midlife patients.
