Wegovy/Zepbound prescription

General Health

How did you go about getting a prescription for either wegovy or zepbound? My current pcp retired a couple months ago so I had to go to a new doctor. I asked if it would be possible to get a prescription for wegovy and my doctor said that she couldn’t do it. She said for a PCOS diagnosis I would have to go through my OB and even then I would likely not get approved.

I’m trying to look into other options like Ro or Hers but I’m unsure of how to get approved for either weight loss medication. I’ve read that you can get approved through a telehealth doctor, but I’m not sure where to start.

Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
