Semaglutide Weight Loss Lombard

Introduction to Semaglutide

Semaglutide is an injectable medication originally developed for treating type 2 diabetes. More recently, it has been found that semaglutide can also promote significant weight loss in overweight and obese patients.

At Hormone Health Clinic in Lombard, we now offer semaglutide for weight management. When combined with lifestyle changes, semaglutide helps patients lose weight and keep it off.

How Semaglutide Promotes Weight Loss

Semaglutide works in a few key ways to reduce appetite and caloric intake:

• Slows digestion - It slows down the emptying of the stomach so you feel fuller longer after meals


• Suppresses appetite - It activates areas of the brain that reduce appetite and food cravings


• Lowers blood sugar - It keeps blood sugar levels steady, preventing energy crashes that lead to snacking

With appetite suppression and blood sugar control, most patients naturally reduce their food intake and lose significant weight with semaglutide.

Candidates for Semaglutide Weight Loss

Semaglutide may be an option for patients who:

• Have a BMI over 27 (overweight or obese)


• Have struggled to lose weight through diet and exercise alone


• Do not have a history of pancreatitis


• Have no severe digestive problems

Hormone Health Clinicians will determine if you are a candidate during a comprehensive medical evaluation.
