> I heard about and considered Liraglutide. Do you have side effects? What are the typical side effects? I suspect that Metformin lowers my testosterone.
The only side effects I've had are gastro: Heartburn/Constipation. The heartburn was only for the first 3 or 4 days, and calmed down w/ ginger candies/crackers/gaviscon.
I'm just starting the 7mg therapeutic dose after a month on the 3mg dose (to titrate up and limit side effects). I'm pretty excited.
Metformin kept me weight neutral, for the most part, but I could never be sure it wasn't dampening my response to Nardil which was inconsistent in my trial (I am bp1, though). I do think Metformin has a ton of great benefits though. I may end up adding it back sometime down the road.
