For many of us, Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) alone isn't enough to get to our goal weight. Once I started HRT, I was able to lose about 25 pounds, but I still had about 12-15 that I wanted desperately to shed. It seemed no matter how little I ate, how long I fasted or how much I exercised, I couldn't shake those last pounds.
But when I combined HRT and Semaglutide, a GLP-1, that's when the needle on the scale began to move and I was able to lose that stubborn 15 pounds I'd been fighting.
Be sure to see the Weight Loss page of my Hormone Therapy Hub website for a comparison chart of how online medical weight loss providers compare and you'll even find some coupon codes to get started.
The Journal of The Menopause Society
In April 2024, a study was released showing a higher weight loss percentage in post-menopausal women taking Semaglutide when combining it with HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) compared to women not on HRT. See article here.
Why we Gain Weight During Menopause
Hormonal changes: Declining estrogen levels affect metabolism and fat distribution, causing weight to be stored more around the midsection (abdomen) instead of the hips and thighs.
Slower metabolism: As part of the natural aging process, you lose muscle mass, which slows your metabolism and makes it easier to gain weight if you don't change your habits.
Lack of sleep: Hormonal fluctuations can lead to poor sleep, which can increase appetite and cravings for carbohydrates, leading to weight gain.
Decreased physical activity: Aging can lead to reduced physical activity and muscle strength, which contributes to weight gain.
Diet: Unhealthy eating habits, including a diet high in processed foods, sugar, and unhealthy fats, and low in fiber, contribute to weight gain.
Menopause Women are turning to Medical Weight Loss Programs for Help
I have a friend who thought it was "cheating" when I turned to Semaglutide for help. Of course, she is one of those friends who didn't gain weight during menopause and continued to tell me to eat better, exercise more . . . blah, blah, blah.
It was actually at one of my HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) check up appointments that a doctor suggested Semaglutide when I explained that I had a huge sweet tooth because I had also made the decision to quit drinking. She suggested I start a GLP-1 and I thought, wait - - do I qualify for a weight loss medication.
As it turned out, I did qualify for the prescription.
How does Mochi Health work for Weight Loss
Mochi Health continues to be one of the most affordable options for Semaglutide and Tirzepatide. Mochi offers the name brand versions of GLP-1's and they also offer compound versions, if your insurance doesn't cover medical weight loss.
Mochi charges $99 per month for Semaglutide and $199 for Tirzepatide. The name brand versions can be as much as $1200 per month if you are paying out of pocket.
Mochi Health Inc Subscription Cost
Now, I'm not normally one who is keen on subscriptions in addition to cost of medications, but in this case Mochi Health is still the most affordable, even AFTER you add in the cost of the monthly subscription.
Mochi Health Subscription
1 Month - $79
3 Months - $199
6 Months - $399
12 Months - $799 ($66 per month average)
Mochi Health's subscription plan includes access to a weight loss prescription, regular video visits with a physician and registered dietitian, ongoing care and monitoring, and options for labs, genetic testing, and sleep apnea assessments.
Monthly Cost of Semaglutide : $99
Monthly Cost of 12 Month Subscription Plan: $66
Monthly Cost of Meds + Mochi Health Plan: $ 165
Hormone Replacement Therapy PLUS a GLP-1
If you want to just "dip" your toe in the water and try Mochi Health for one month to see the results, you can do that. You are not committing to a long term commitment, but just the one month if that is all you want at this time.
Once you see how you feel, discover if a GLP-1 can work for you and see the needle on the scale move, you might be a full-on believer like I am.
Be sure to see the Weight Loss page of my website for the Semaglutide Comparison chart to determine which online Semagltutide provider might be the best fit for you.
