Hello All,

I don’t live in India, and I’m currently on a Mounjaro prescription from my doctor. I’m visiting family in Mumbai and was wondering if anyone could recommend the best way to get the prescription filled and where I could source a Mounjaro pen from a legitimate pharmacy in Mumbai.

It’s almost 50% cheaper in India compared to where I live, so I’m hoping to purchase one pen to take back with me.

Would really appreciate any advice or recommendations. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I’m 28F with PCOS and BMI around 35, and I’m currently on semaglutide under my endocrinologist’s supervision.

I’ve completed 4 weeks now:

Weeks 1 and 2: 0.25 mg

Week 3: 0.5 mg

Today: 0.5 mg (second 0.5 mg dose)

My doctor plans to increase the dose after this, rather than giving me the originally planned 3 doses of 0.5 mg.

My concern is that I haven't lost even 1 kg or noticed any inch loss, and I don't feel any meaningful hunger suppression. My appetite feels pretty much the same as before.

The only noticeable side effects are usually on the first day after the injection, some nausea/vomiting, but it's manageable with the medication my doctor prescribed. I also get some mild pain/soreness around the injection site on my stomach for a while after the injection. Is that normal?

I know 4 weeks is still early and that 0.25 mg is only a starting dose, but I'm getting worried because I'm not feeling any noticeable effect on appetite or weight.

For people who have been on semaglutide:

Did anyone have almost no appetite suppression or weight loss during the first month?

When did you personally start noticing a meaningful difference?

Did things change significantly when you went from 0.5 mg to higher doses?

Is mild injection-site pain normal?

If you weren't responding initially, what did your doctor do next?

Anything I might be missing?

Would really appreciate experiences, especially from people with PCOS or similar starting weights.
