I'm taking Saxenda, what can be the reason for body odor?
Hello, I started taking saxende, and I started with a higher dose after a week, a dose of 1.8. I've been getting a terrible stench for a long time, such a stench that people point it out to me, I've been to the gynecologist, I'm going to the doctor tomorrow, have any of you had a similar problem? It's a shame to even go to the store...

Only that this smell is no longer from the body, but from the vagina, I will soon lose my job because of it, my private life has already fallen apart, and the doctors say that nothing is wrong with me. It all started while taking injections after 2 weeks of taking them thoroughly

The Summary of Product Characteristics of Saxenda does not indicate a risk of body odor during treatment. However, the action of this drug is based on lowering blood glucose levels. If there is too much reduction in glucose levels (hypoglycemia), symptoms such as increased sweating, but also muscle tremors, pale skin, anxiety, increased heart rate, increased hunger may appear, m.in. Hypoglycemia can be dangerous to health, and during Saxenda treatment, glycemia should be monitored regularly. However, this does not have to be the cause of the problem if your blood glucose is normal and you do not notice other symptoms accompanying too low blood glucose levels, especially if the unpleasant smell persists for longer. It is necessary to consult a doctor who, based on full knowledge of your health condition, will help determine its cause and recommend appropriate treatment. There may be various reasons for this condition, the unpleasant smell of sweat may result, for example, from metabolic disorders or thyroid diseases.
