Wegovy Eligibility & Online Options
Good news on eligibility: Yes, a BMI of 31 likely qualifies you, especially if you have at least one weight-related health condition (like high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, etc.). The FDA approval criteria is:
- BMI ≥ 30, OR
- BMI ≥ 27 with at least one weight-related condition

Important Considerations
- Availability/cost - Wegovy can be $1,300+/month without insurance
- Ask about insurance coverage or manufacturer savings cards (Novo Nordisk offers one)
- A real licensed clinician must evaluate you - these services all require a medical consultation
- Compounded semaglutide is cheaper but carries some quality risks
