Will a GLP-1 help hot flashes in peri or post menopause?

GLP-1 drugs are metabolic tools when prescribed for labeled uses such as type 2 diabetes or chronic weight management. They are not hot-flash drugs. Vasomotor symptoms still have their strongest evidence around menopausal hormone therapy and a short list of non-hormonal prescriptions studied for that job. Weight change may change how someone feels; that is not a menopause-symptom indication. Do not drop prescribed HRT for a GLP-1 in the hope it will treat sweats.
