Important notice for patients using weight loss medications and taking the pill or HRT
Many patients are now using weight loss medications like Tirzepatide (Mounjaro)or Semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus) - either for diabetes or privately for weight loss. These medications interact with contraceptive pill and oral HRT, reducing their effect which can lead to important consequences.
