Tymlos causing belly fat?

Posted by kaa1 @kaa1, Jun 3, 2024

I’m on Tymlos for about 2 1/2 months now. I’m not usually concerned about my weight. I stay pretty stable. I’ve noticed that my belly seems to be getting fatter. Has anyone experienced this belly fat situation from Tymlos? Is there anything I can do about it? Why is it happening? Thanks for any input.

I've noticed bloating and constipation using Tymlos. My belly also has grown. I've stopped it for a month (after 5 months of usage) because my intestines and colon felt swollen and cramped. I'm feeling so much better OFF the Tymlos; I'll see how I feel after a month's hiatus. All the best!!! Alex Rose

I noticed the extra belly fat! I started with thigh injections and did notice it did reduce it. I try to do the belly as much as possible because my doctor says it's probably better than the thigh but either is okay.
