Do GLP-1 medications raise muscle-loss risk in peri or post menopause?

Fast weight loss on any plan can cost muscle if protein and weight training are ignored. Peri and post menopause are already hard on muscle and bone. If a clinician prescribes a GLP-1, a plan to keep muscle (protein targets, lifting, and check-ins) belongs in the same conversation. That is how to design care. It is not a reason to avoid an approved medicine when it is needed, and not a green light for unapproved research stacks.
