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.
