What is the reported incidence of hair thinning on semaglutide in STEP 2?

Asked 1 Oct 2025Modified 10 months agoViewed 6.4k times

Setup, so nobody has to ask: hair thinning · semaglutide · STEP 2.

I would like help reading this properly rather than being told what conclusion to reach.

I have the full report including the method section, so I can quote specifics if that helps.

What can I legitimately conclude from this figure?
