At Brazil's 63rd Congress of Gynecology and Obstetrics, physicians confronted a tension as old as medicine itself: a treatment that arrives before its full consequences are understood. GLP-1 agonists — now prescribed by the millions for weight loss — offer genuine benefits to women, restoring fertility and protecting the heart, yet leave critical questions unanswered at the precise moments women need answers most. The gap between what these drugs can do and what science has confirmed is not merely academic; it shapes the reproductive choices and daily lives of women taking them right now.

GLP-1 agonists show promise for women's health with reproductive and cardiovascular benefits, but significant evidence gaps exist regarding pregnancy safety and contraceptive interactions, creating market opportunities and regulatory challenges.
Women may benefit from improved fertility outcomes and cardiovascular health through GLP-1 use, but face uncertainty regarding pregnancy safety and potential contraceptive efficacy issues, requiring careful medical supervision and potentially higher healthcare costs for monitoring.
Regulatory bodies (ANVISA, FDA, EMA) will likely require expanded clinical trials for pregnancy safety and drug-drug interactions with contraceptives. Healthcare systems may need to establish clinical guidelines for GLP-1 use in reproductive-age women, potentially increasing healthcare costs but improving outcomes for obesity-related infertility.
