From Sex to Mental Health, Hims & Hers Weight Loss Customers See Big Improvements

Since launching access to compounded GLP-1 treatments in May, Hims & Hers customers have seen great success with their weight loss goals. In fact, customers on compounded GLP-1 injections report having lost, on average, 10.2 pounds in their first month of treatment.¹ 

By themselves, these results are exciting and encouraging. But at Hims & Hers, we know that the long-term benefits of healthy weight loss go beyond the number on the scale. Hitting weight loss goals isn’t just about shedding weight. It’s about becoming a healthier version of yourself. 

Born from our commitment to serving and celebrating every part of our customers’ health and wellness, our most recent customer survey² asked individuals accessing weight loss care through Hims & Hers to respond to questions about the improvement of different aspects of their health beyond how many pounds they’ve lost.

Judging by the results, our customers are showing us that it’s not only about the weight they lose. It’s about what they’re finding along the way. 

Let’s take a look at four discoveries in particular:

1. Improved Feeling of Overall Health and Confidence:

• 78% of customers feel healthier overall since starting weight loss treatment through Hims & Hers.
• 52% of Hims & Hers customers report having improved overall confidence since starting treatment.
