Semaglutide For Weight Control
Step 1
SEMAGLUTIDE IS A GLP-1 (GLUCAGON-LIKE PEPTIDE-1) RECEPTOR AGONIST
This means it mimics the hormone GLP-1, which helps regulate appetite and food intake. When taken weekly, Semaglutide also lowers glucagon levels to reduce hunger and slows gastric emptying, allowing you to feel fuller for longer after meals.
Step 2
SEMAGLUTIDE INJECTIONS PAIRED WITH EXERCISE LED TO AN AVERAGE REDUCTION IN BODY WEIGHT
In a recent study involving 1,961 participants with a BMI over 30 and no diabetes, those who combined Semaglutide injections with exercise achieved an average weight loss of 14.9% over 68 weeks. In comparison, the placebo group saw only a 2.4% average reduction in body weight.
Step 3
SEMAGLUTIDE DELIVERED EVEN GREATER WEIGHT REDUCTION
Another study revealed that combining Semaglutide with behavioral therapy and a low-calorie diet led to even greater weight loss results. Semaglutide is typically prescribed for men and women with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher, or for those with a BMI of 27 or above who also have health conditions such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol that make weight loss more difficult.
Why Begin Semaglutide Injections?
Semaglutide injections provide numerous benefits to eligible individuals, including:
- Notably decreasing weight when paired with improvements in diet and exercise
- Delivering steady, safe weight loss over a prolonged timeframe
- Lowering the risk of heart and cardiovascular conditions after reaching a healthy weight
- Helping you appear and feel healthier
- Needing just one injection each week
How Fast Does Semaglutide Work For Weight Loss?
Patients usually start noticing weight loss within the first 4 weeks of taking a 0.5 mg dose of Semaglutide, although for some, visible results may take up to 6 weeks.
Studies indicate that Semaglutide delivers the best outcomes when paired with consistent exercise and balanced dietary changes. The duration of treatment depends on factors such as individual health conditions and the patient’s ability to adopt lasting lifestyle changes that promote long-term weight management.
Could You Be A Candidate?
If you are overweight or obese and do not have significant health complications, you may be eligible for Semaglutide injections.
Potential Side Effects Of Semaglutide Injections
Common side effects of Semaglutide may include headache, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, stomach discomfort, dizziness, mood changes, constipation or diarrhea, heartburn, and bloating. While rare, more serious side effects can occur, such as pancreatitis, allergic reactions, kidney issues, gallstones, and others.
At Men’s Health Clinic, your provider will thoroughly discuss these potential risks and answer any questions you may have to ensure you feel informed and comfortable before beginning treatment.

Client Testimonials
I had an amazing experience at Gameday Men’s Health Cerritos. From the moment I walked in, the environment felt more like a high-end lounge than a clinic-comfortable, clean, and made just for guys. The staff was incredibly welcoming and professional. Simon took the time to listen to my concerns and made me feel heard from the start. The clinic director Vic was on-site and walked me through my bloodwork results in a way that actually made sense. No pressure, no sales pitch-just honest care. I came in thinking I was “fine,” but left with a clear plan to start feeling like myself again. Highly recommend this place if you’re serious about your health and want real answers.
Gameday Men’s Health Cerritos is awesome. I’ve been going there for the past couple weeks and there is nothing but professionalism and kindness from all the workers. Nicole is super helpful at the front desk, and Lynn is a superhero! Simon, the owner, is always there and is always checking in on me to make sure everything is going well. I wish I could leave more than 5 stars! 10/10
