Do GLP1’s Work For Lipedema
June 25 @ 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm
“Lipedema World Alliance Board Members Dr Gabriele Faerber (Germany), Dr Thomas Wright (USA), Dr Jose-Luis Simarro (Spain) and Dr Manuel Cornely (Germany) will discuss experiences treating patients with GLP1-RA medications such as Liraglutide/Saxenda and Semaglutide/Wegovy, compared with other conservative therapies. Are there differences in the experiences and treatment of patients with lipedema vs patients with obesity? What considerations apply to the use of GLP 1 Receptor Agonists in lipedema patients? How do patients with lipedema react to these medications? How should we approach discussing these medications with lipedema patients? Join us to discuss these questions and many more. You will hear perspectives from LWA Board Members contrasting use of these medications with other conservative and operative lipedema therapies, outlining their clinical experiences and recommendations/acknowledgements of the limits of current lipedema specific research on these medications.” Watch Live on You Tube: Click here to watch via you tube
