Oh Baby! Women Using Weight Loss Products, Gain Pregnancy Weight
What You Need to Know:
An increasing number of women using the drugs such as Ozempic or Wegovy for weight loss, report an unexpected side effect: pregnancy. Women are sharing on social media that this occurred despite being on birth control pills or having fertility issues.
Healthline.com quoted fertility specialist Dr. Jamie Grifo, “Many high BMI patients do not ovulate, some have polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and many just don’t ovulate regularly. With the weight loss from these drugs, many women who are anovulatory start to have regular ovulation and menses, which takes them from a low fertility situation to a more normal fertile state,” he explained.
Some women shared that after struggling with infertility for years, after using the weight loss drug like Mounjaro, they are welcoming their “miracle babies.” Others using birth control pills also reported the same result.

Over 90% of Trans Youth Live in States With Anti-Trans Laws

A report from the Williams Institute at the University of California, Los Angeles, found that 93 percent of transgender teens from the ages of 13 to 17 live in states where there are laws or proposed laws “banning access to gender-affirming care, participation in sports, use of bathrooms and other sex-separated facilities, or affirmation of gender pronoun use.”

“For the second straight year, hundreds of bills impacting transgender youth were introduced in state legislatures,” said Elana Redfield, federal policy director at the Williams Institute and the lead author of the report, in a press release.
 
“The diverging legal landscape has created a deep divide in the rights and protections for transgender youth and their families across the country.”
