Many new mothers are embracing a dangerous trend to lose the weight gained during pregnancy through popular weight loss injections such as Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro.
Although these drugs are designed to treat obesity, diabetes and related diseases, their use by postpartum mothers is becoming more and more widespread, promoted by several influencers who share their weight loss stories on social networks.
Medical experts are warning about the possible consequences that these drugs can have, especially during the period of breastfeeding, as there is a risk that the active substances will pass to the babies. Professor Alex Miras points out that these drugs are not a quick fix and should not be used for aesthetic reasons by mothers who have just given birth.
In addition, there are cases where the use of these drugs has been associated with serious side effects, as shown by the case of a mother who experienced poisoning due to an accidental overdose of Wegovy, warning other mothers about the dangers of this trend.
If you're thinking of a quick way to get back in shape after giving birth, experts advise you to consult a doctor and not consider extreme methods that could endanger your health and that of the baby.
