Does Mounjaro cause hair loss like Ozempic?

It’s not the GLP-1 medication that’s causing hair loss, it’s the rapid weight loss. I had hair loss on keto and the HCG diet as well as on Mounjaro. Some people lose their hair, some don’t. I know I’m in the group that loses hair when I lose a lot of weight. Most of it does come back after about a year, it takes a lot of time.

I noticed hair loss when I went on the 5 dosage after two months. Maybe it was going to happen anyway. I went back on the 2.5. Major amounts of hair was lost, went from a super thick ponytail to very thin. Have been off 8 weeks. Hair loss has returned to normal but I have never had such thin hair. All indications are it will come back. I did lose 25 pounds in 5 months and have kept it off. Hair loss was the # 1 reason I stopped Mounjaro.

I’ve been on Mounjaro and my hair is falling out ugh

People in support groups for Mounjaro recommend getting plenty of protein to prevent hair loss.
