I'm currently on HRT and my dr is supportive of starting microdosed GLP-1s to help with other issues (weight, inflammation, cholesterol & LDL, etc). Admittedly I am nervous. I'm concerned about some of the really bad side effects, but more so life long reliance. I know Kaylyn suggests tirzepatide for fewer side effects. Has anyone successfully used them to improve their health, then wean off successfully and keep the weight off and improved health? If so I'm curious what that looked like for you.

Is there a certain time of month to have labs drawn?
