where does hims get their semaglutide Inc Hims? Hers? It's Novo Nordisk's

Semaglutide selectively activates the GLP-1 receptor, producing: Glucose-dependent insulin secretion : Reduces hypoglycemia risk compared to non-incretin agents Glucagon suppression : Reduces hepatic glucose output in the hyperglycemic state Gastric emptying delay : Contributes to postprandial glucose control and satiety Central appetite regulation : Acts on GLP-1 receptors in the hypothalamus and brainstem to reduce hunger and alter food preferences The simplicity of semaglutide's single-receptor mechanism is both a limitation (no energy expenditure enhancement from glucagon) and a strength (thoroughly understood pharmacology, predictable effects, extensive safety characterization)

Wegovy does not directly reduce the effectiveness of most contraception

In some cases, they increase, temporarily, with each increase in dosage
