## Resource

Karen tackles the surprising link between GLP-1 medication (like Ozempic and Wegovy) and hair loss. As more people turn to these drugs for diabetes and weight management, some are left wondering: is the price of shedding pounds also shedding your hair? Karen explores possible causes behind this side effect, including rapid weight loss, nutritional deficiencies, and hormonal changes, and shares science-backed strategies to help prevent or reduce hair thinning while on these medications.
