Tara Narula on Good Morning America, because it marks the first time were really seeing a regulatory agency speaking out about this. But, she added, weve heard talk about this particularly on social media and online in this country women dubbing them Ozempic babies. Narula explained theories that the decreased effectiveness of birth control while taking any of these drugs is due to two factors: One, the fact that being obese or overweight, or having syndromes like PCOS can decrease your fertility, and that, with these drugs inducing weight loss, youre essentially changing your menstrual cycle, your ovulation, and increasing your chances of getting pregnant. The second issue, she explains, is that oral contraceptives work by getting absorbed into our bodybut that GLP-1s work by changing our gut motility, which is how food and waste moves through the body, and can also sometimes cause nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea
Unlike prescription GLP-1 medications where discontinuation can trigger noticeable withdrawal symptoms and appetite rebound, stopping resM is unlikely to produce dramatic changes
