- Postmenopausal women using menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) achieved the most significant total body weight loss (19.9%) with tirzepatide compared with 15.6% in postmenopausal women not on MHT.
- Premenopausal and perimenopausal women achieved similar weight reductions of approximately 18.6% to 18.7%, indicating tirzepatide’s consistent efficacy across reproductive stages.
- Findings suggest a potential synergistic effect between MHT and tirzepatide on metabolic regulation and body composition in postmenopausal women.
- Propensity-score matching adjusted for diabetes, prior weight-loss drug use, and baseline body mass index, supporting the robustness of observed differences.
- The results highlight an opportunity for individualized obesity management in women, particularly those undergoing menopausal transition or receiving hormone therapy.
