What to expect

Results build over months. Here's the journey.

This isn't a two-week fix. The change comes from staying the course, with your doctor adjusting as you go.

Weeks 1–2

Getting started

Your body adjusts to a low starting dose. Early days, settle in.

Week 3

Appetite settles

Many men report feeling fuller sooner and thinking about food less.

Month 2

Momentum builds

Steady, gradual change as your dose is guided upward where appropriate.

Month 3+

The habit sticks

Check-ins keep you on track. The longer you stay, the more it compounds.

Descriptions are general and educational, based on patient-reported experiences on the programme (2026). This is not a prediction of your result. Individual results vary, and no specific outcome is guaranteed.

Good to know

Your questions, answered.

What does it cost?

Programmes start from R2,750/month, and the price includes your doctor review, genuine medication and delivery, no hidden fees. Longer plans are price-locked and work out cheaper per month.

What does the treatment involve?

After a short online check, an HPCSA-registered doctor reviews your health and BMI and decides whether treatment is appropriate. Where it is, you receive genuine, registered medication, sealed from the manufacturer, dispensed by a licensed pharmacy and delivered cold-chain, with dose guidance and check-ins along the way.

Are there side effects?

All medicines carry potential risks and side effects, which is why treatment is prescribed and monitored by a doctor. In our own check-in data, most men report side effects haven't affected their daily life; where they occur they're often mild and settle as your body adjusts. Your doctor guides your dose and is available if anything concerns you.

How fast will I see results?

It varies from person to person, and it's not an overnight fix. Change typically builds gradually over months rather than weeks, which is why the programme is built around staying the course with regular check-ins. Individual results vary and no specific outcome is guaranteed.

Can I cancel?

Yes, no lock-ins. Pause or cancel anytime from your account, and your medical profile stays saved for 12 months so picking back up is quick.

Androlab provides access to independent medical assessment and healthcare support. Weight-loss treatment is prescription-only and is prescribed only where clinically appropriate following review by an authorised healthcare professional. Not every person will qualify for treatment. All medicines have potential risks, side effects and contraindications.

Weight-management support is individualised and may include lifestyle, nutritional, behavioural or medical interventions where clinically appropriate. Results vary, and no specific outcome is guaranteed. Clinical-trial figures describe study populations, not individual results. Statistics drawn from Androlab patient check-in forms are attributed to their sample sizes and reflect group averages. Items marked "Pending sign-off" are internal and must be cleared by the doctor/compliance before publication.
