Does ozempic cause cancer?

Honestly I was also super scared when starting my PCOS treatment journey. From what my doctor explained, the risk was mostly seen in animal studies and is still being watched, especially for specific thyroid issues. Please don't take any decision yourself and have a detailed chat with your endocrinologist first.

Oh god, I spent three whole nights reading about this and panicked so much. There is a warning about thyroid C-cell tumors, but apparently, it is quite rare in humans. Still, my anxiety didn't stop until my doctor physically examined my neck and reassured me completely.

Look, every strong medication comes with some heavy warnings. I don't have time to stress over internet rumours, so I directly asked my doc about the thyroid cancer risk before starting. If you have any family history of thyroid tumors, they won't even prescribe it to you, so definitely get checked properly.

I completely understand why you're worried, even I got super anxious reading those articles online. Actually, the doctors are very careful about who they give it to. Just share your full family medical history with your general physician and they will tell you if it's completely safe for you or not.
