Am I prone to fatigue and sleepiness with liraglutide?

Does fatigue and sleepiness is common side effects of taking liraglutide r-DNA injection ?

Answered on 8th Mar '25

Fatigue and drowsiness can occur with liraglutide, often due to its effects on hormone levels and blood sugar regulation. These feelings may improve as your body adjusts to the medication. To manage these symptoms, ensure you're getting enough rest, stay well-hydrated, and maintain a balanced diet. Regular physical activity can also help boost energy levels. However, if you find these issues persistent or troubling, please consult endocrinologist. They can offer personalized advice and assess your situation to ensure your treatment is both safe and effective.

Hello , I am 27 years old and i have testosterone value 2.89 ng/mL . And i make exercises fitness 3/4 days in week My question is : Can i take some testosterone ?

Male | 27

At your age, having a level of testosterone at 2.89ng/mL is right where it should be. There are several symptoms associated with lowT which include high fatigue levels, decreased libido, and even mood swings. It might be stress or some medical problems causing it; see a doctor before taking testosterone because if not done properly this could harm your body. If you sustain your exercise routine, eat well-balanced meals daily, and have adequate sleep every night -these activities will help maintain normal levels of this hormone.

Hormonal level imbalance I am a trans Having testosterone 1288 LH 2.46 FSH5

Other | 29

Hormonal equilibrium is the prime condition for human beings, and the variations in testosterone, FSH, and LH would be the obvious signs of such changes as fatigue, mood instability, and sexual problems. These distempers have several reasons, including hormone therapy, other diseases, or way of life. Therefore, the approach should be holistic in this matter. Proper diet, daily workout, and stress management also have a significant influence. I suggest you consider talking to a healthcare provider who is a specialist in transgender health for personalized advice and the possibility of adjusting your treatment plan.

Before I share my worries I have to always note that I am a childhood cancer survivor Osteosarcoma I am now 19 and I was diagnosed at 11, I have been free from cancer since 13 years old I have worries of having cushin disease, I show all the symptoms and researched on YouTube by various videos of different doctors speaking of the subject. I gained a lot of weight in such a rapid speed even though I was very skinny, no matter how heathy I eat eating enough protein, cutting gluten and diary out as well as sugar I feel like i keep gaining weight. I have a fat pad at the back of my neck and the fat seems to go to my back and stomach, have awful bruising on my feet sometimes, horrible exhaustion by just lifting my arms and my bones sound like they crack a lot. Alongside many other symptoms like insulin resistance a doctor noticed due to darkening to my neck, but diabetes was ruled out when I went to a doctor and she said she did see many signs of a hormonal issue just by looking at me, referred me to a endocrinologist. I suspected high cortisol because i have dealt with a history of psychological issues such as diagnosed depression. I am suffering and will see this specialist soon, but my general blood lab tests have been “normal” before, I have read out of fear of not being heard by my doctor that lab tests sometimes do not show abnormal cortisol levels if the cortisol is not or condition of it is not too advanced I want to know all the tests that I need done that are necessary to be diagnosed, and what alternatives can I discuss with my doctors if the labs come out “normal” I am aware i need to advocate for myself sometimes I just dont know how to word it because of fear of seeming ignorant and like i know more than my doctor, I dont think this I just want my pain to be over! I think hearing advice from a professional would be best on how i can best approach advocation for my health.

The symptoms you're experiencing could be related to Cushing's disease. It's important to discuss the necessary tests with your doctor to get an accurate diagnosis. These tests include a cortisol urine test, blood cortisol levels, and an MRI to check your pituitary gland. Cortisol levels can fluctuate, so multiple tests at different times may be needed for a definitive diagnosis. Even if initial tests are normal but your doctor suspects Cushing's disease based on your symptoms, further testing and monitoring might be required. Be open and honest with your doctors, ask questions, and express your concerns to ensure you receive the best care.

Hi I am 17 years old girl . My height is 5.6 and my weight is 88 kgs . My problem is still I didn’t attend puberty

Female | 17

The reason is that each person achieves puberty at their age. Not developing breasts or getting a period by a certain age are some signs of delayed puberty. The reasons may be different. For example, a person's family history can play a role or some specific medical conditions may be involved. A well-balanced diet, regular exercise, and having a conversation with a nutritionist can be helpful to tackle the issue of delayed puberty.

नमस्ते मेरे भाई का नाम Amit हैं उन्हें बचपन से ही type 1 daibtes हैं last 4 दिनों से उन्हें widal typhide or kidney की problem हो रही हैं please give me some suggestions

Male | 32

It is natural to worry about Amit. His immune system might have difficulty in fighting infections, especially type 1 diabetic patients. Fever, weakness, and abdominal pain can be symptoms of typhoid or kidney problems. They should give him light food, drink plenty of water, and check his blood sugar regularly. However, a professional checkup for these symptoms is a must. Please contact a doctor so that they can guide you to the correct diagnosis and treatment. Best wishes for a quick recovery!

Cyprodoil medicine kya estrogen ko regulate krta ya kaam krta .bcz mera already zyda ha toh doctor nay mujy yeh di ha

Female | 22

Cyprodoil provides mood regulation but it does not have to do with estrogen directly. Nevertheless, its effects can give relief to symptoms such as mood swings and the likes that typically come with the change of hormonal state. Estrogen in the blood can at times produce the feeling of being sick, which may include a late period, more weight, or anxiety. Handling such matters might require changing your lifestyle as well as use of some drugs. Observing how you feel and being open to discussing the issue with your healthcare provider is very important. See your doctor first if you want to talk about your hormone levels or simply if you have questions relating to your medicine.

Hy i am Shama Pawha i have irregular peroid , acne problem, hair fall , and also i have thyroid problem.

Female | 25

Irregular periods, acne, hair fall, and thyroid problems can be related to each other. Thyroid issues can interfere with your hormones, thus causing period and skin problems. Hair loss could also be caused by thyroid deficiency. Checking up with a doctor for your thyroid levels and being treated for it can help normalize the situation. They may prescribe specific medications or suggest other treatments to ameliorate the symptoms.

Hi, I am Male 32 years old, I suffer from Hashimoto, and recently did some other blood tests. My total bilirubine level was 2, (direct was 0.2 and indirect 1.8) I have normal ALT, AST, LDH and GGT, also a normal ultrasound( no problems where found on ultrasound). My Cholesterol was also very high (300) and LDL 230. Should I worry about the liver? SHould I start statin for my cholesterol and could my high colesterol be related to hashimotos?. My height is 180 CM and wight for the moment 75 KG. I have been overweight for many years. Max weight wa 90 kg

Male | 32

Your bilirubin is a bit high but your liver enzymes as well as the ultrasound tests are normal which is good news. High cholesterol can go with Hashimoto's - your thyroid problem. Looking at your LDL levels, it might be good to start taking a statin so that you can reduce this kind of cholesterol in your body. It will also help if you work on your weight and try living healthy.

Sir I am ramesh from hosur . today my sugar level was 175 morning I have been tested in empty stomach

Male | 42

Waking up with a glucose reading of 175 is conside­red elevate­d. High sugar levels can lead to fatigue­, excessive thirst, and fre­quent urination. Potential contributors might be e­xcessive swee­t consumption or insufficient physical activity. Incorporating nutrient-dense­ foods like fruits and vegetable­s, coupled with regular exe­rcise, may aid in regulating your glucose le­vels.
