Appearing on the Diary of a CEO podcast, Dr. Malik detailed how Ozempic and Mounjaro may alter libido and arousal, citing both benefits and drawbacks.
She clarified that the so-called 'Ozempic penis' results from fat loss above the penis, making it appear longer, not actual growth. GLP-1 drugs can improve blood flow but may also dampen sexual desire.
