Hormone Therapy and GLP-1 Medications: A Systems-Level Synergy The case for combining HRT and GLP-1 receptor agonists does not rest simply on the observation that each addresses a different part of the menopausal disruption
Compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide have made prescription GLP-1 medications more accessible than ever
At the cellular level, GLP-1 receptor activation appears to reduce the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1)
Still, sustainable metabolic health ultimately requires thinking beyond a single hormone, Missimer says
