GLP-1 Novice
I've been on Retatrutide for about 2 months at 4mg per week for the last month and am generally pleased with the fat loss and body composition changes (consistently about 1lb per week without much impact to strength).
I had some labs drawn and was surprised to see that my A1C had risen to 5.4 from 5.1 - which was the result of a few months on Tirzepitide, but only taking 1.5mg per week. My baseline has been 5.4 - 5.5 for the last decade, pre any GLP1 drug. My fasting glucose was 87, which is definitely lower than my typical baseline of mid-high 90s. Does the glucagon receptor agonist slightly raise blood sugar?
