Research & evidence
Clinical context, without the hype.
Plain language on how these treatments work, what to realistically expect, and how we keep them safe.
GLP-1 for weight
GLP-1 medicines such as semaglutide and tirzepatide were developed for type 2 diabetes and are now widely used for weight loss. They work by reducing appetite and slowing digestion, which helps people eat less without constant hunger.
In studies people lose meaningful weight on average, but results vary from person to person, and the medicine works best alongside changes to diet and activity. Early nausea is common and a titration schedule helps manage it. It is not right for everyone, and a clinician reviews your history before prescribing. See the weight program →
Testosterone therapy
Low testosterone is confirmed with blood tests alongside symptoms, not by a quiz alone. Where it is confirmed, testosterone therapy is an established treatment that can help energy, mood, libido and strength.
Doing it properly means baseline labs, a considered starting dose, and ongoing monitoring to keep levels in a healthy range. It is not a fit for everyone and has considerations a clinician will go through with you. See the hormone program →
How we keep it safe
Two things sit behind every request. First, plain rules applied to the information you give us. They help route your request to the right place and flag anything a clinician should see. These rules do not diagnose you or make the decision.
Second, a licensed clinician. Nothing is dispensed without a clinical decision, identity is verified on sign up, weight is verified for weight programs, and a clinician reviews every refill, never automatically. Start your assessment →
