Metformin's side effects are pretty minor, I find. So don't let that possibility stop you if you think you could benefit.

I agree with you. My point was simply that most physicians only prescribe if the potential benefits are obvious and outweigh the potential risks / side effects. Doing nothing is something better than doing something without an obvious benefit.

If you’re obese, have metabolic syndrome, have T2D, or any other number of issues that we’ve seen GLP-1s (or metformin) help with - then the medications can be a godsend.
