Current product labeling generally doesn't recommend GLP-1 medication use during pregnancy, and breastfeeding-specific safety data is limited, which is why providers typically advise waiting and discussing timing individually with a provider rather than resuming immediately postpartum without that conversation. This is a genuinely individual decision that depends on your specific health situation and should be discussed directly with your provider rather than assumed either way.
