Hormonal

Incretin polyagonists (dual and triple agonists) produce weight loss and metabolic improvements comparable to, or approaching, those of bariatric surgery, serving as a potent non-surgical alternative.

If you have obesity and want significant weight loss without surgery, incretin polyagonists (like tirzepatide or retatrutide) are now a viable, highly effective medical option. They work by mimicking gut hormones to reduce appetite and improve metabolism. While they require weekly injections (or soon, oral pills), they can achieve weight loss results similar to bariatric surgery. Expect some initial stomach upset, which usually fades as your body adjusts. Consult a doctor to see if you are a candidate.
