GLP-1 hair loss is real.
1 in 8 American adults are on a GLP-1. Up to 1 in 3 users lose hair.
New research links Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro and Zepbound to a higher risk of hair loss. Here is why it happens, and how to protect your hair while your GLP-1 does its job.
Your hair feels the weight loss before you see it
Most GLP-1 hair loss is telogen effluvium: a sudden change pushes many hairs into their resting phase at once, and they shed a few months later.
It's not in your head. It's in the data.
Two major 2026 studies, covering hundreds of thousands of patients, found GLP-1 users are significantly more likely to experience hair loss than people on other medications.
Lanehart, Zinn & Beatty, Archives of Dermatological Research, 2026 (vs. metformin). Penn Medicine, BMJ, 2026 (vs. other diabetes medications). Zepbound and Ozempic U.S. prescribing information. Semaglutide is the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy; tirzepatide in Mounjaro and Zepbound.
Is your hair at risk on GLP-1?
For education only, not a diagnosis. Talk to your prescriber about any hair loss.
Support your hair from the inside, the scalp and the follicle
A 3-month system matched to the typical shedding window: replenish the nutrients GLP-1 diets fall short on, stimulate follicles, and keep the scalp healthy while hair cycles back to growth.
