Weight loss resistance and weight gain are truly one of the most difficult problems to solve after years of hypothyroidism. Until recently, we’ve struggled to support you in ways we felt were truly effective in the short and long term until recently.
A new class of drugs have been being used for weight loss have been sweeping the nation, and changing the lives of our patients - and now, we are excited to announce we are expanding our weight loss program to people who aren’t currently our patients.
We started a weight loss program with Semaglutide in the fall of 2022 and to say the responses and results have been profound is truly an understatement. Truly, this class of medications has changed medicine and the lives and metabolisms of people permanently.

frequently asked questions
I’m honestly seeing lives being changed y’all. I’m seeing women break negative relationships and cycles they have with food. I’m seeing people lose weight who previously it was physically impossible to do so. I’m seeing enormous improvements in long-term health markers that show immense reductions in people’s risk for heart attack and strokes (the number one killer of both men and women in our country). I’m seeing people go from pre-diabetes to perfect blood sugar. I cannot overstate the life-changing experience my patients have had with this program.
Currently, we are using a compounded form of generic Ozempic / Semaglutide (not salt-based) mixed with NAD.
No. As discussed in the webinar, this is a class of weight loss medication that creates weight loss in two main ways: -it helps to curb cravings by influencing your neurochemistry and it makes you feel fuller faster and longer. - It removes excess blood sugar circulating in your body.
I actually believe it’s the best choice for thyroid patients. It begins to repair the damage done to your metabolism because of hypothyroidism. Because of this, when you come off of the medication, your metabolic function is better than when you went on the medication. This medication is not contraindicated in people with thyroid conditions, with the exception of a history/family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma.
Because our patient population is a particular type, people and women with metabolic damage due to a thyroid condition, your experience and need for semaglutide/GLP 1 agonists is very different than others in the general population. We have solved your thyroid problem together (after all, that’s why you came to see us in the first place). Now, we simply need to unravel the metabolic damage from your previous imbalanced thyroid, repair that damage so that your metabolism works better long into the future.
The cost of the program is $998/ every two months for people who are not existing patients of MTC, and the price is $900/ every two months for existing MTC patients. We no longer offer installment plans for this cost.
The actual medication (which is honestly still quite pricey and often anywhere from $1,100-1,600 PER MONTH outside of our program).
The cost of the program is all-inclusive with the exception of labs. You do not need to pay for appointments or medication in addition to the monthly fee. The program also includes a group lab review every 3 months to see how you labs are progressing and how well your body is responding to the medication on a measurable level. We utilize your insurance to run your labs. If you do not have insurance, we can connect you with a deeply discounted cash-pay lab.
This is accomplished by utilizing an online course structure for weekly instructions and guidance.
Additionally, we have a live call each week with our health coach where we discuss a topic pertaining to the program as well as answer any questions you may have. These calls are recorded for replay later.
You will also have access to our facebook group to connect with others in the program which has been a blast.
Lastly you will receive a private email address where you can reach our health coach and our weight loss team to ask any specific questions.
The program does not include your lab work. We obtain lab work before starting the program and every 3 months during. We usually bill patient’s insurance for this, however, if you do not have insurance we will connect you with a discount lab we frequently work with. The cost of lab work through them is $89 each time. So roughly, $89, each 3 months.

To allow for us to still provide you access to your medication, we must first route your prescription to our Austin, Texas office address. Upon arrival, we will keep your medication properly temperature regulated until we are able to ship your medication as a priority overnight to your home address. However, there is an additional fee of $130 dollars (per shipment) associated with this due to the expedited shipping that’s required to uphold temperature (shipped with a frozen ice pack, and insulated packaging). The shipping cost is much greater than the $130 that we charge our patients, but we at Modern Thyroid Clinic happily cover the additional shipping costs to lessen whatever expenses we can for our out of state pharmacy patients.
Unfortunately, this is the one state to which we cannot extend our Weight Loss Program. Semaglutide cannot be sent to your home state due yo your Mississippi Board of Pharmacy rules and regulations. You can read more about their statement HERE.
Even when upholding our licensing requirements when establishing care; you will not be a candidate for our Weight Loss Program. Our pharmacy can only ship to a limited number of states within the United States, and even with us routing your medication to Austin, Texas first - the distance and time it would take your medication to arrive to you in your home country is far to risky as your medication may have lost its regulated cold temperature. **This rule includes all countries, and extends to Canada and Mexico as well.
No, our program is independent of insurance limitations which again, allows it to change and improve so many more people’s lives.
Yes, you can.
ABSOLUTELY. In fact, this is so exciting to me as I feel that so often, these women/people aren’t offered any help or solutions and even 10-15 pounds can be discouraging and frustrating.
Honestly, there’s no one size fits all answer for this. It depends on so many factors. What I can say is that I would estimate the average duration for most of our patients is around 6 months.
They are safe for most people. Our doctors will work with you to evaluate your options and choose a weight loss medication that is safe and effective for you.
There are no contraindications for people with thyroid conditions like hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s. They are however contraindicated for thyroid with a history or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma. We also discourage people from their use with anyone with history of thyroid cancer in general.
Generally speaking, Side effects are extremely rare, and most individuals who take a GLP-1 do not experience any. For those who do, nausea is the most common, and this typically resolves over the first few weeks of being on the medication. If you do experience any side effects, you’ll be able to reach out to your Medical Team directly for support.
For our program specifically, I definitely go through these more in-depth in the webinar so please, please watch that before making a decision. But the most common side effects are dehydration (from not drinking enough water) and about 10% experiencing some nausea for 24 hours or so each week. Especially at first. I have yet to have a single person stop the medication due to side effects. Overall, they have been very mild in nature over 95% of the time. One of the powerful benefits of using compounded medications is that we can adjust the dosage specifically for you because we are not using pre-loaded syringes. Of course like all medications, there are very rare but serious side effects of the medication, some of which are more theoretical in nature, you can find a full list as written by the makers of Ozempic HERE.
