See If You Qualify →HeydayMD prescribes GLP-1 weight loss medications — including semaglutide and tirzepatide — online through licensed providers with medical oversight, metabolic blood testing, and monthly delivery. GLP-1 medications can be combined with testosterone replacement therapy for men seeking both hormone optimization and weight management.
How GLP-1 Medications Work
GLP-1 receptor agonists like semaglutide mimic a naturally occurring hormone that regulates appetite, blood sugar, and metabolism. They work through three mechanisms: slowing gastric emptying so you feel full longer, reducing appetite signals in the brain, and improving insulin sensitivity for better metabolic function.
The result is a significant reduction in caloric intake without the willpower battle most diets require. In manufacturer trials of branded semaglutide, participants lost a meaningful share of body weight over roughly a year alongside diet and activity changes. Those trials studied the branded FDA-approved product, not compounded semaglutide, and individual results vary.
Why Men Respond Differently
Men typically carry more visceral fat — the metabolically active fat around organs that drives cardiovascular risk, insulin resistance, and testosterone decline. GLP-1 medications target this fat preferentially, which means men see improvements in metabolic markers, blood pressure, and — critically — testosterone levels as visceral fat decreases.
When combined with TRT, the results compound: testosterone supports lean mass preservation while semaglutide drives fat loss, creating body recomposition that neither treatment achieves alone.

Who Qualifies
GLP-1 medication may be appropriate if you have a BMI over 30, or a BMI over 27 with weight-related health conditions (high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol). A Heyday provider evaluates your labs, health history, and goals to determine if semaglutide is right for you.
What to Expect
Most patients start on a low dose that gradually increases over 4-8 weeks to minimize side effects. Common early effects include mild nausea that typically resolves as your body adjusts. Meaningful weight loss usually begins within the first month, with the most dramatic changes over months 3-6.
Combine with TRT for Maximum Results
For men managing both low testosterone and excess weight, Heyday offers integrated TRT + GLP-1 protocols. Your provider designs a coordinated plan where both treatments work synergistically for optimal body recomposition.
