Conceiving after/during tirzepatide
Hi everyone,
I’m looking for a bit of reassurance, shared experiences, or advice from anyone who might have been in a similar boat.
My last tirzepatide injection was on July 1st, and we are looking into starting to conceive. I know the general medical advice (especially the US/FDA guidelines) says to wait a full 2 months/8 weeks to let the medication completely clear your system before getting pregnant, but I know some regions say 4 weeks, and sometimes surprises just happen!
Did anyone here conceive sooner than the recommended 2-month window after stopping? How did your pregnancy go, and what did your doctor or OBGYN say?

Hi! I was 4 weeks (unknowingly) pregnant when I took my last dose. They already considered me high risk due to type 2 Diabetes, so they watched me closely. My OB said the biggest risk is low birth weight due to the fact that impedes the mother's nutrition during pregnancy. The pregnancy went well. He was delivered at 37 weeks via c-section at 8 lbs 13 oz.
