Forteo and weight gain

I have been on Tymlos injections for 2 months and am rapidly gaining inches in belly fat despite the fact that I am careful with my diet , I walk, and have never had a weight problem.
Like you, the doctors and the pharmacist have told me "studies have not shown weight gain"
I know my body and I know this bloating/ increase in waist is from the Tymlos.
Were you able to find out any info about how /when this weight will come off?
yikes - I hope that when I stop the drug the weight (belly fat inches) can be lost!

I've had the same issue after nine months of Tymlos. 65-year-old make. I definitely notice some extra weight around the abdomen, and it's not my diet. It was enough that my jeans were suddenly difficult to button after I took them out from storage. I assume that it will come off later. I will say that it makes injections a little easier.

I see my endocrinologist this week and will talk to her about it

Oh my goodness I am glad I found your post. I have ben researching and asking my doctors Why have I gained belly fat since I started Forteo! Never had weight problem before. I am eating a pretty much all protein deit. No sugars, carbs. Thought I was alone with this problem. Thank you for posting
