So many women are confused about GLP-1 medications like Zepbound, Wegovy, Ozempic, and Mounjaro, and unsure how they work, how to start, how to avoid side effects, or whether they are safe. The opinions are loud, the misinformation is everywhere, and it can feel impossible to know what is true.
This is exactly why Tamsen turned to Dr. Rocío Salas-Whalen, one of the country’s leading GLP-1 experts and a triple board-certified endocrinologist who has guided thousands of women through this process.
She is also the author of ‘Weightless: A Doctor's Guide to GLP-1 Medications, Sustainable Weight Loss, and the Health You Deserve,’ a trusted clinician for decades, and one of the clearest voices in the conversation about weight, hormones, and metabolic health.
In this episode, Dr. Rocío Salas-Whalen answers the questions you submitted, including:
-What is the safest way to start a GLP-1
-What dose to begin with, and how slowly to increase
-How to prevent nausea and other side effects
-Whether GLP-1s help with perimenopause belly fat, PCOS, or Hashimoto’s
-Whether microdosing is effective or just a trend
-What to do when weight loss plateaus or when the medication is stopped
-What new GLP-1s are expected in 2026
This conversation cuts through the noise and brings real understanding to a topic that affects millions of women.
