Ozempic, a medication first designed for managing Type 2 diabetes, has become widely used for weight loss. By slowing digestion and increasing feelings of fullness, it has helped many people shed pounds quickly.
The drug’s popularity, however, comes with a range of side effects. Common issues include nausea, constipation, and other digestive discomforts. More recently, unexpected changes have sparked new conversations online.
A trending concern referred to as “Ozempic vulva” has emerged. Women have reported sagging labia, weakened vaginal muscles, and dryness after rapid weight loss while taking the drug. Though not an official medical diagnosis, the reports mirror observations from some health experts.
Specialists suggest these changes may be tied to how fast weight and muscle mass are lost. Rapid fat reduction can alter the support and structure of pelvic tissue, potentially reshaping the vaginal area.
