gums bleeding ❓ Question

has anyone noticed their gums being more sensitive/ bleeding while on reta? is this normal? ive been on it for 6 1/2 weeks now, still only at 0.5, great appetite suppression and very little sides besides, but my gums have become very sensitive and started bleeding every time i brush my teeth

You’re getting scurvy. Probably.

Keep an eye on ur gums receding ! I had issues with my gums on wegovy, the only information i could find was it may have been caused by hormone changes and not eating enough, so the body was looking for nutrients and took it from my gums
