POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME
WEIGHT GAIN

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a condition in which the ovaries overproduce androgens, or
male sex hormones, which are typically seen in modest amounts in women. Numerous tiny cysts, or
sacs packed with fluid, develop in the ovaries and are referred to as polycystic ovaries.

PCOS, or polycystic ovarian syndrome, is thought to impact 7-8% of women who are fertile. Worldwide,
up to 70% of afflicted women go undetected.

Girls and women with PCOS are troubled with excessive facial hair, irregular periods and infertility when
they are young. As they grow older they are more prone to develop type 2 diabetes, heart attack and stroke.

Girls and women with PCOS gain weight and also struggle to lose weight.

Several studies have shown that weight loss helps to improve the hormonal profile and symptoms associated
with PCOS. Weight reduces acne and facial hair. In addition the risk of infertility and type 2 diabetes is reduced.

HOW DOES MOUNJARO
WORK FOR MENOPAUSE?

Mounjaro works by mimicking the effects of two natural hormones, glucose-dependent insulinotropic
polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). These hormones help to control blood sugar levels by
increasing insulin secretion, slowing gastric emptying, and suppressing glucagon secretion.

Increasing insulin secretion: Mounjaro stimulates the release of insulin from the pancreas, which helps to
lower blood sugar levels.

Slowing gastric emptying: Mounjaro slows down the movement of food from the stomach into the small
intestine, which helps you feel full for longer and eat less.

Suppressing glucagon secretion: Mounjaro reduces the release of glucagon from the pancreas, which helps to
prevent the liver from releasing too much sugar into the bloodstream.

RESEARCH ON WOMEN WITH PCOS
TAKING MOUNJARO

Studies have indicated that weight loss after glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist medication may improve the metabolic characteristics of PCOS. It is thought that tirzepatide, a dual
GLP-GIP (gastric inhibitory polypeptide) receptor agonist, could one day be used to treat PCOS because of its striking similarities to GLP-1R agonists in terms of mechanism of action.
