Medication-Induced

GLP-1 Medications (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro)
Investigated.

Rapid weight loss on GLP-1 medications commonly triggers a shedding cascade a few months after starting. Rarely the medication itself — usually the metabolic and nutritional shift underneath it.

What this usually looks like

  • Sudden increased shedding a few months after starting a GLP-1
  • Reduced appetite and lower protein intake
  • Rapid weight loss over a short window
  • Diffuse thinning across the crown and hairline
