Perimenopause is defined by hormonal fluctuations, not the absence of periods
(Endocrinology, 2010), demonstrated a strong species-dependent effect: In rodents: High GLP-1 receptor expression in thyroid C-cells Strong cAMP signaling activation Persistent stimulation leads to tumor formation In humans and primates: Minimal or absent functional GLP-1 receptor expression in C-cells No meaningful calcitonin elevation under therapeutic exposure No observed C-cell proliferation in long-term studies Even exposure levels far exceeding clinical doses failed to reproduce rodent-like thyroid effects in primate models

This may contribute to a healthier internal environment, which is the foundation for high-quality milk production
Early-phase human trials are small, well-controlled studies centered on safety, reproductive hormones, and surrogate markers such as ovarian reserve tests and sperm parameters ahead of any efficacy trials
