Medical Weight Loss
GLP-1 & GIP Weight Loss Therapy in Mukilteo, WA
Medically supervised GLP-1 and GIP medication therapy, paired with lab monitoring and an individualized plan built around your health history and goals.
GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist medications are one of the most effective medical tools available for sustainable weight loss, working by regulating appetite, slowing digestion, and supporting healthier blood sugar control. At Hagen Health, these medications are prescribed only after a full evaluation of your health history, current medications, and weight-loss goals.
Medication is one part of a complete plan. Your treatment includes baseline and ongoing lab work, dose adjustments based on how your body responds, and regular check-ins to manage side effects and keep you progressing safely toward your goals.
CANDIDACY & SAFETY
Is GLP-1/GIP Therapy Right for You?
Candidacy depends on your health history, current medications, and weight-related health goals. A personal or family history of certain thyroid or endocrine conditions, pregnancy, or specific medications can affect eligibility, which is why a full evaluation comes before any prescription.
Side effects, contraindications, and monitoring requirements are reviewed with you individually before starting treatment.
A PLAN BUILT AROUND YOUR BIOLOGY
A Plan Built Around Your Biology
Weight loss is not one-size-fits-all, and GLP-1/GIP therapy works differently for everyone. Before prescribing, we review your health history, current medications, prior weight-loss attempts, and any conditions that could affect candidacy or dosing. Your starting dose, titration schedule, and monitoring plan are built specifically around you.
WHAT TO EXPECT
A process built around your safety and progress
01
Evaluation & Lab Work
We review your health history, current medications, and weight-loss goals, and order baseline labs to confirm you're a safe candidate and to personalize your starting dose.
02
Starting & Adjusting Your Medication
You begin at a low dose to minimize side effects. We check in regularly to adjust your dose, address any nausea or digestive changes, and confirm you're progressing safely.
03
Ongoing Monitoring & Support
Periodic lab monitoring and follow-up visits track your progress and safety over time, and your plan is adjusted as your body responds and your goals evolve.
TREATMENT GOALS & MONITORING
Your goals, progress, and ongoing care
What We're Working Toward
The goal isn't just a lower number on the scale. We're aiming for steady, sustainable fat loss, improved metabolic markers like blood sugar and cholesterol, and a healthier relationship with hunger and fullness, all while protecting your muscle mass and overall health.
How We Know It's Working
We track your progress through regular weigh-ins, periodic lab work to monitor metabolic markers, and check-ins about hunger, energy, and side effects. Your dose and plan are adjusted based on how your body actually responds, not on a fixed timeline.
AFTERCARE & RECOVERY
Aftercare, Side-Effect Support, and When to Call
Use your medication on the prescribed schedule and do not increase the dose early or double a missed dose. Smaller meals, steady hydration, adequate protein, and limiting very rich or high-fat meals can help reduce nausea and support nutrition. Follow the individualized plan for constipation, reflux, or other digestive symptoms rather than adding medications without checking first.
Contact the clinic for persistent vomiting, inability to keep fluids down, worsening constipation, symptoms of dehydration, or side effects that interfere with eating or daily activity. Seek urgent medical care for severe or persistent abdominal pain, especially if it radiates to the back; right-upper-abdominal pain with fever or yellowing of the skin; fainting; severe low blood sugar; or signs of an allergic reaction.

Frequently Asked Questions
Clear, practical answers about candidacy, preparation, treatment, recovery, and aftercare.
Can BHRT Help With Weight Loss?
Hormone optimization alone is not a weight-loss treatment. However, correcting hormone deficiencies may improve energy, sleep quality, muscle mass, and metabolic function, making it easier for some patients to achieve and maintain a healthy weight. When appropriate, BHRT can be combined with nutrition counseling, lifestyle modifications, and evidence-based medical weight loss therapies.
Are GLP-1 medications safe?
Like all prescription medications, GLP-1 therapies have potential risks and side effects. Before prescribing treatment, we perform a thorough medical evaluation and continue to monitor your progress throughout therapy.
