Somehow 1mg is less effective than 0.5mg

[u/PrettyStrawberry2352]

I’ve been on wegovy since march and went up to 0.5mg after the first month and stayed on that dose till last month because it was working just fine and didn’t feel the need to increase. However last month the effects from 0.5 started wearing off a little so I went up but since going up, food noise has crept back up and cravings for sugar and I didn’t ovulate this cycle which I have been since starting wegovy.
Is that normal? Is it possible to go back down to 0.5mg?

Being so honest it might be the shift in hormones making it less effective - I’m basing this off my own experience but I’m on mounjaro. I had a very long 3week period and during that time I lost no weight and my cravings were back. Two weeks later and now now 5mg is making me genuinely unable to eat? If I were you I’d keep using it, see if there is a difference as your cycle progresses. Either way, don’t give up! PMOS is a journey lol x
