What is Semaglutide:
A Complete Beginner’s Guide
Is your weight holding you back?
What is Semaglutide?
Administered through a subcutaneous injection once every week, semaglutide treatment generally extends over a 16-week course. Patients might continue receiving treatment on an as-needed basis subsequent to this period. Dosage levels are determined on an individual basis, depending on each patient’s health condition, body weight, and targeted weight loss objectives. The dosage is increased incrementally, and patients typically report noticing weight loss effects within 4 to 6 weeks from the start of the injections.
When integrated into a regimen of healthy eating and exercise, semaglutide offers enhanced weight loss benefits. The prescription is available to men and women with a Body Mass Index of 30 or more. It’s also applicable for patients with a Body Mass Index of 27-plus who are dealing with high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, or other health challenges that typically impede weight reduction.

How Does Semaglutide Work?
In a study involving 1,961 individuals with a BMI over 30 and without diabetes, Semaglutide injections combined with exercise resulted in an average body weight reduction of 14.9% over 68 weeks. In contrast, the placebo group experienced only a 2.4% average decrease in weight.
In a different study, it was found that combining Semaglutide with a low-calorie diet and behavioral therapy results in a more significant amount of weight loss. Multiple studies have consistently demonstrated that Semaglutide is most effective when paired with a healthy diet and consistent exercise. At Gameday Men’s Health, your Semaglutide specialist will thoroughly review your medical history, perform a physical health analysis, evaluate your BMI, and answer any questions you might have regarding treatment.

Gameday has greatly improved my life and I highly recommend everybody to go give them a visit. They’re professional and, more importantly, attentive to what I was saying. I was so relieved after meeting with the Gameday team – the search for a treatment was finally over and things can only move up from here! My girlfriend was also glad that Gameday was able to provide a treatment that not only was effective, but also reassuring knowing that each visit was getting me back to my normal self. I’m not longer lethargic throughout the day and I’ve even been told that I was glowing haha!

Things in my life weren’t getting much worse in the past year. I was tired but I felt like who wasn’t? I gained weight but I also worked a sedentary job. What really got me was that when I was out with my friends and an attractive person passed me, I had no reaction. That was a wake up call for me. My friend actually got treatment at Gameday and highly recommended reaching out. Best decision ever. The staff had such an expertise and were straightforward about what was possible and what should be expected. Within 3 months, I feel overall more alive and I gained more confidence. 10/10 awesome experience.

If you ask anybody from my inner circle, they would all say that I’m athletic, handsome, and energetic. I didn’t feel like any of those a little after turning 43. I gained a little over 15 pounds, lost patches of hair over my body, and couldn’t get good sleep so I was always tired. I did some research and they were all symptoms of low testosterone. I spoke to my wife and she mentioned that her brother-in-law went through the same thing and went through a TRT protocol with GameDay. I did the same and couldn’t be happier. The icing on the cake is the fact that Gameday worked with my insurance plan!

Words you never want to hear when having sex: “Is everything okay?” My wife noticed the lackluster sex and I’m glad she said something because if not I would have never found out about Gameday and their treatment for low testosterone levels. After just a couple of months, TRT is rocking my life and rejuvenated my sex life. My wife and I are forever thankful that Gameday was able to help me with their dedicated support and expert knowledge. We spoke to a few other clinics and we didn’t feel comfortable with the way they were just trying to push us towards a payment.
