Hair loss associated with GLP-1 medications is often due to a temporary condition triggered by rapid weight loss and nutritional changes. This leads to increased hair shedding, typically noticeable 2–3 months after starting or increasing the medication dosage. While this type of hair loss is usually reversible, it can be distressing.

At Another Look Hair Institute, located in East Lansing, Michigan, we believe that understanding these underlying causes is the first step toward finding effective solutions.
