Medical Weight Loss with Peptides
Supportive, Science-Backed Weight Management in Sylacauga
Losing weight can be frustrating, even when you’re making healthy choices. For many women, biology and hormones make long-term results difficult with diet and exercise alone.
At Sylacauga Gynecology, we offer medical weight loss treatments using peptide medications, which help regulate appetite and support long-term, sustainable change. These peptide options are part of our broader commitment to helping women feel their best at every stage of life.
Why consider medical weight loss?
Weight loss medications can be a safe, effective way to support your overall health goals. When combined with lifestyle guidance, they can help you:
Feel full sooner and reduce food cravings
Lose weight gradually and safely
Improve blood sugar, cholesterol, and blood pressure
Boost energy, sleep quality, and confidence
Our approach emphasizes realistic goals and ongoing support, not quick fixes.
What to expect
Peptides are typically once-weekly injections that act on natural hunger and fullness signals. We start at a low dose and increase slowly to help your body adjust. Your plan is individualized and includes regular follow-ups and simple, sustainable lifestyle guidance.
The most common side effects are mild digestive symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation. These are usually temporary and improve as your body adjusts. We’ll discuss all potential risks and help you manage any side effects along the way.
Who is a good candidate?
If you’ve tried losing weight with diet and exercise alone and haven’t seen much progress, these medications may help. Especially if you have:
A BMI of 30 or higher, or
A BMI of 27 or higher with a weight-related health issue
Other health conditions, such as high blood pressure, prediabetes, or type 2 diabetes
We will review your health history, discuss your goals, and help decide if this is right for you.
