Yes — a BMI of 31 meets the usual FDA BMI criterion for Wegovy on BMI alone, because Wegovy is indicated for adults with an initial BMI of 30 or higher, or 27 or higher with at least one weight-related condition.[8][6][3] For prescribing online, licensed healthcare professionals using telemedicine can prescribe it if they determine it’s appropriate after reviewing your health history; that can include MDs/DOs, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants working in online weight-loss or primary-care telehealth services.[2][3] The key point is that an online clinician still has to screen for contraindications, medication interactions, pregnancy/breastfeeding, and other safety factors before prescribing.[2][8] A few practical options commonly used for online evaluation include: Mayo Clinic Diet: offers Wegovy-related weight-loss guidance and screening information.[6] Hers: offers online semaglutide eligibility checks with clinician review.[11] Calibrate: provides a Wegovy eligibility assessment and care pathway.[12] PrivateDoc and similar telehealth clinics: state they can assess BMI and health history in an online consultation.[1] If you want, I can also help you figure out whether your insurance is likely to cover Wegovy or which online service may be the best fit for your state/country.

Yes, with a BMI of 31 you meet the FDA eligibility criteria for Wegovy as an adult, since the requirement is a BMI of 30 or higher (obesity) without needing additional health conditions [1][2][3]. However, meeting the BMI threshold does not guarantee a prescription; a licensed provider must also confirm you have no contraindications (e.g., history of medullary thyroid cancer, pregnancy) and that the medication is clinically safe for you [5][13].
