Medical Weight Loss

Semaglutide is an FDA-approved medication primarily used in our weight loss programs. It mimics natural hormones that signal the brain about fullness and hunger, helping to regulate appetite and calorie intake. Semaglutide works by enhancing insulin production, slowing digestion, and regulating blood sugar levels, which collectively contribute to effective weight management.

Tirzepatide, Dual Action (GLP-1/GIP) effectively combines the actions of the GLP-1 and GIP Peptides for treating Medical Weight Loss, Obesity and Type 2 diabetes, while also lowering the risk of kidney disease, heart disease, heart failure, stroke and high blood pressure.

Many of our patients start to see significant weight loss results within the first few weeks of starting their personalized program.

At RenewFX Health, Hormone Replacement Therapy is our specialized focus along with Medical Weight Loss. 

For Women, when it comes to hormone replacement therapy, it has always been common for women to be treated with HRT as they gradually experience hormonal declines associated with aging and menopause. Hormonal imbalances and deficiencies often result in symptoms including chronic fatigue, hot flashes, night sweats, sleep issues, mood swings, irritability, increased body fat, lost muscle mass, sexual dysfunction and chronic fatigue and depression.

Men have the same issues, similar declines and symptoms. Andropause, often referred to as Male Menopause, is now similarly addressed with hormone replacement therapy, testosterone therapy and HGH therapy. For men, hormone therapy has evolved to become a welcome solution to reversing hormone declines associated with aging, whether it’s low testosterone, estrogen dominance, growth hormone deficiency or hypothyroidism.

While taking Semaglutide, it is recommended to eat a high-fiber diet focusing on fruits and vegetables and opt for small, high-protein meals. Avoid high-fat foods and limit alcohol consumption to manage the medication’s effects more effectively and avoid potential side effects like lowered blood pressure and slowed digestion.

Yes, you should not use Semaglutide if you have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2. Additionally, it is not recommended for use if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or if you have a history of pancreatitis. Individuals with diabetes, particularly those on insulin or other medications that lower blood sugar, should consult their endocrinologist before starting Semaglutide.

Obtaining medical clearance and consent is crucial before beginning treatment with Semaglutide. This process helps to ensure that there are no pre-existing health conditions that may be contraindicated or could interfere with the GLP-1 therapy protocols. This step is vital for safely integrating Semaglutide into your health regimen.

Common side effects of Semaglutide include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, and abdominal pain. Injection site reactions such as itching or burning may also occur. If you experience any of these side effects or notice other symptoms not listed, it is important to contact your healthcare provider to discuss potential adjustments to your treatment plan.
