## Resource

New research reveals GLP-1 weight loss drugs are doing more than help women shed pounds—they’re boosting job prospects and social opportunities, with unemployed women seeing higher hiring rates and single women more likely to form relationships. Yet, despite these gains, happiness levels stayed flat, and long-term income impacts remain unclear. While the drugs’ cost remains a barrier, a new Medicare program offers access for just $50 a month—temporarily, until the end of 2027—making these powerful medications more reachable as we uncover their wider societal effects.
