Key Takeaways
Thinking about pregnancy while using GLP‑1 meds? Know the facts.
As covered recently in Parents.com, GLP‑1 medications (like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound) are not considered safe during pregnancy or while breastfeeding due to limited human data and potential risks observed in animal studies, including fetal growth issues and pregnancy loss. If you’re planning to conceive or discover you’re pregnant while on GLP‑1 therapy, it’s recommended to stop the medication immediately and consult your healthcare provider.
