Fat jabs left me MALNOURISHED: Nour, 28, shrank from size 18 to 8 in just 7 months on Mounjaro. But then the hideous side effects started…
At first, Nour Mansour excited the effects of Jab Mounjaro’s effects of weight loss that fell from 18 to 8 in less than seven months.
Since the birth of his 28 -year -old twin daughters, he had fought with weight and now he was surprised by the increase in four sudden confidence.
But within six months, he noticed a disturbing side effect. Her hair – once full and almost falls on her hips – she began to spill at a worrying rate.
London management assistant, “ I would pass my hands through my hair and clusters would fall, ” he said.
“ I am the Middle East, so my hair is my treasure, but quickly bright and left to dry and curly. In the front, my temples were very empty, so I always started to wear caps and headbands. It was terrible. ‘
Nour is far from being alone. A Shathe of Mounjaro users went to social media forums to share their concerns about hair loss – some even stopped injections.
Last month, former politician Nadine Dorries Daily announced his own experience in the mail column. ‘As a former nurse, I was sure that I had controlled every possible side effects before I injected myself for the first time’. “ I didn’t read anywhere – and then the known thing – was the sad possibility of hair loss.
“ `Hit me as much as I told anyone. ‘

Recent trials have shown that all weight loss GLP-1 drugs may cause hair loss, and that Mounjaro is among the worst criminals-more than five percent of the users reported to have hair loss.
However, experts believe that the drug does not cause the problem.
In Onewelbeck, a consultant dermatologist and a world famous hair loss specialist. David Fenton says: ‘Fast weight loss or sudden dietary changes may leave people missing in foods necessary for healthy hair growth.
‘These include iron, vitamin B12, folate, zinc and vitamin D. When users lose their appetite and start eating less, they face the risk of missing key vitamins. ‘
Protein deficiency can also be a factor, because the hair is mainly made of keratin – a protein -. The hair becomes weak and fragile without enough. Other side effects, such as fragile nails and slowing nail growth in GLP-1 users, are also related to deficiencies.
Diabetes Specialist David Strip at Exeter Medical School, ‘Participants are closely monitored during trials and is kept in a rich diet. But in the real world, many people do not know how to meet their nutritional needs or how to meet the supplements they need. ‘
Dr Fenton should take into account the blood test if anyone who is concerned about hair loss, especially if it follows a vegan or vegetarian diet. Iron red meat, seafood, dark -leaf greens and hazelnuts can be found. Milk, eggs and whole wheat are good zinc sources, B12 – first found in the animal
Products – common form is widely available.
“Normally, about 90 percent of the hair follicles in your scalp are growing and 10 percent are listened to,” Dr Fenton said. But when
The body is under stress – disease, fever or significant weight loss – this cycle shifts and further enters the stage of spilling. The more we lose weight and the faster you lose, the higher the risk. ‘
This is known as the Telogen Effluvium, which is characterized by thinning and increasing hair drop during brushing or washing.
While women in women are similar to hair loss and seriousness varies between individuals, the problem usually solves itself over time.
‘I am the Middle East, so my hair is my treasure, but quickly went bright and left to dry and curly.’
However, there are steps that can help to minimize damage.
“Any lack of nutrients will slow healing, Dr says Dr Fenton, Dr Fenton says. ‘If you lack insufficient or basic nutrients, your hair may not return to its old thickness.’
Slow down weight loss can also help, because it reduces stress in the body.
34 -year -old Estates manager Grace Parkin saw the comfort of hair loss after developing his diet while using Mounjaro.
A mother from Sheffield lost seven stones a year, but she began to realize that her hair was thinner for just three months.
“At the beginning, I was absolutely guilty of not eating enough because I wasn’t hungry, or he says.
‘Now I’m making a conscious effort to make a good, balanced diet – and I saw my hair starting to return.’
Nour had a similar return. After talking to the GP, he began to reinforce and focused on eating well – and spilling stopped.
“For most people, hair will come back, Dr says Dr Fenton. ‘But if you eat properly and still fall, talk to your GP.’
