Your first 90 days on a GLP-1
Week by week: what the starter dose actually feels like, when appetite changes show up, when your provider will titrate, and the three weeks most people find hardest.
Treatments
Twenty-three treatments across seven areas of care. None of them get prescribed before a clinician has spoken with you and seen your bloodwork.
How we are different
Fill out a form, get a prescription, never speak to anyone — that is the model almost every online provider runs. It is fast, and it is blind. Nobody has captured your biology, so nobody actually knows whether the medication they shipped you is the right one.
We start the other way round. A real conversation with a member of the clinical team, comprehensive lab work, then a plan built on what your body is actually doing. Then we stay with you.
A real conversation about your goals, your history and what you have already tried — before any medication is discussed. Not a questionnaire. A person.
Comprehensive bloodwork across metabolic, hormonal, inflammatory and nutrient markers. We find out what is actually driving your symptoms instead of assuming.
A plan built from your results, adjusted as your labs change, with your care team reachable seven days a week. Not a subscription that ships and forgets.
GLP-1 and metabolic therapy, dosed to your labs and titrated by a clinician who actually reviews them.

Licensed providers · 100% online
Medical weight loss, hormone therapy, longevity protocols and lab testing — prescribed by licensed clinicians, delivered to your door. No waiting rooms, no insurance runaround.
Why NovaraMD
Almost every online clinic hands you a questionnaire, matches you to one drug and ships it. They never capture your full biology — so they can’t know what will actually work for you.
We start the other way around. Your first step is a one-on-one visit with a member of our clinical team to talk through what you’re trying to change. Then we test, build the plan around your numbers, and stay with you through the whole journey.
What we treat
Not a catalog of everything. Three areas we run properly — each one backed by labs, a real clinician and dose adjustments over time.
GLP-1 and dual-agonist therapy, titrated to you, with muscle protection and metabolic labs built in.
Explore weight lossTestosterone, fertility, desire and intimacy — for men and women, dosed off bloodwork rather than a symptom quiz.
Explore hormonesCellular energy, recovery, sleep and cognition — protocols you re-test, not supplements you hope about.
Explore longevity01 · Weight & metabolic health
We treat the metabolism underneath it — appetite signalling, insulin sensitivity, sleep and muscle retention. That’s why the program pairs medication with labs, protein targets and check-ins instead of shipping a pen and disappearing.
Free tool
Move the sliders for an estimate based on published clinical-trial averages. Not a diagnosis, not a prescription — a starting point for a conversation.
Estimated at 72 weeks
160 lb
Estimates use average total body-weight reduction reported in published GLP-1 trials (SURMOUNT-1, STEP-1) and typical lifestyle-intervention results. Individual results vary widely and depend on dose, adherence, diet, activity and medical history. This tool is not medical advice and does not guarantee any outcome. Eligibility is determined by a licensed provider after a full evaluation.
Curve shape follows the mean weight-loss trajectory reported in the pivotal trials (SURMOUNT-1 for tirzepatide, STEP-1 for semaglutide) applied to your starting weight, with the early plateau during dose titration. Trial averages, not a prediction for you. Your provider sets the dose and the pace.
02 · Hormones & sexual health
Low energy, low drive and stalled progress all have overlapping causes. We run the full panel first — total and free testosterone, estradiol, SHBG, LH/FSH, thyroid, prolactin — then treat what the numbers and your symptoms agree on, and re-test at six to eight weeks.
Consultations are 100% private, and every plan is reviewed by a clinician licensed in your state.
03 · Longevity & performance
The longevity space is full of things people take on faith. We only run protocols with a plausible mechanism and a marker we can actually follow — and we tell you plainly where the evidence is thin.
Bloodwork & diagnostics
Optimization without data is just expensive guessing. Establish your baseline, then track what actually moves — hormones, metabolic markers, inflammation, fertility.
How it works
A real conversation — about twenty minutes by video or phone — about your goals, your history and what you’ve already tried. Free, and no obligation.
A licensed provider reviews everything, screens for contraindications, and prescribes only if it’s appropriate for you.
Shipped free from a licensed pharmacy in discreet packaging. Message your care team any day; doses adjust as you progress.
