PCOS & GLP‑1 Therapy at Worthy Weight Loss in Plano, TX

PCOS Weight Loss & GLP‑1 Therapy | Worthy Weight Loss Clinic

Manage PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) with evidence‑based GLP‑1 support at Worthy Weight Loss. Non‑surgical medical weight loss targeting hormones, insulin, and ovulatory function.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormonal disorder affecting women of reproductive age and many times teenage girls. It is characterized by irregular menstrual cycles, elevated androgen levels, polycystic ovaries, and often insulin resistance and weight gain. Because weight excess and metabolic disturbances worsen PCOS symptoms, a strategic approach to weight loss is foundational to managing PCOS. At Worthy Weight Loss, we understand that treating PCOS is not just cosmetic—it’s about restoring hormonal balance, improving insulin resistance, fertility, and reducing long‑term risks of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic syndrome.

How GLP‑1 Medications Help in PCOS

How GLP‑1 Medications Help in PCOS

Mounting evidence and clinical experience suggest multiple benefits for women with PCOS:

  • Many women with PCOS have underlying insulin resistance; GLP‑1 therapy helps improve insulin sensitivity and glucose control, reducing hyperinsulinemia (high insulin levels), which in turn lowers ovarian androgen production.

  • The appetite suppression and delayed gastric emptying effects of GLP‑1 agents help reduce caloric intake and support sustainable weight loss, which is often difficult in PCOS due to metabolic derangements.

  • By aiding in weight loss and metabolic improvement, GLP‑1s may also reduce downstream risks for type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, and cardiovascular disease in women with PCOS.

  • Some research and commentary suggest GLP‑1 therapies also have anti‑inflammatory and favorable effects on lipid profiles, which align well with PCOS management goals.

Because obesity and insulin resistance are key drivers of PCOS, a therapy that addresses both weight and metabolism is an ideal adjunct to hormonal regulation, fertility care, and lifestyle therapies.

Integrating GLP‑1 Into a PCOS Weight Loss Strategy

For many women with PCOS, traditional dieting and exercise yield limited long‑term success. GLP‑1 therapy can help break through the “set point” resistance that often plagues PCOS patients by moderating appetite, improving metabolic flexibility, and helping patients lose 8 – 20% of body weight over time in clinical settings.

At Worthy Weight Loss, our PCOS‑oriented support includes:

Comprehensive hormonal & metabolic evaluation

We test fasting insulin, glucose, androgen levels, lipid panels, and markers of inflammation.

For eligible patients, we incorporate GLP‑1 therapy into their treatment plan in collaboration with their gynecologist or endocrinologist.
We craft low glycemic, anti‑inflammatory meal plans that support insulin control, hormonal balance, and ovulatory function.

With lifestyle counseling designed around PCOS challenges (cravings, energy fluctuations, mood), plus support for fertility goals.

We track weight, hormonal response, cycle regularity, metabolic markers, and adjust therapy over time.

Women with PCOS who lose 5 % to 10 % of body weight often see meaningful improvements in menstrual regularity, ovulation, insulin resistance, and androgen levels. GLP‑1 support accelerates and sustains that progress beyond what diet alone often achieves.
