ran ss-31 for 30 days back in november and got pure exhaustion while everyone else felt wired. fifty-three year old dude and my mitochondria must've been in rough shape. but running mots-c now every other day and it's helping the whole journey along.
 
Fatigue is normal when you eat less. body gets less energy so it feels tired. try eating more of the nutritious stuff — should help. also as you hit goals your caloric needs drop, need to reset for your new set point.
 
Shedding on GLP-1 is overwhelmingly telogen effluvium - follicles pause in response to rapid caloric deficit, not the medication. The intervention is protein priority (minimum 1g per lb of target weight), biotin, and iron if low. Peak shedding is usually months 3-5 and tapers as the loss rate slows. The vitamins support regrowth already cycling underneath.
 
Hair loss on these medications is almost universally telogen effluvium - the rapid weight loss and caloric restriction signals to the body to redirect resources away from non-essential systems. It peaks around 3-6 months and reverses on its own. Adequate protein intake throughout is the main thing that modulates it.
 
Been taking a couple of natural hair supplements myself and they've genuinely helped with the shedding. Saw somewhere you're around 50, so hormonal changes could definitely be part of the picture too.
