How to Lose Weight the Right Way — Safely and Effectively?
Full metabolic screening before starting your weight loss programme
AED 1,990 instead of AED 4,240
Many people spend years trying to lose weight — adjusting their diet, adding exercise, trying different approaches, medications, injections. But the weight won’t shift, keeps coming back, or unwanted side effects get in the way. At Polyclinic.ae, weight loss programmes are led by experienced endocrinologists and physicians.
Any weight loss programme — with medication or without — should start with proper diagnostics. You need to understand how your metabolism works and what is actually preventing your body from losing weight. When it comes to modern GLP-1 medications — Ozempic, Mounjaro, and others — a metabolic screening before starting is especially important. Taking them without prior diagnostics is not safe.
The CheckUp «Metabolic Assessment for Weight Loss» gives you the full picture: hormones, liver function, blood sugar, lipids, deficiencies, and organ health. A solid, informed starting point for weight loss that is safe and built to last.

What Gets in the Way of Weight Loss — and How to Find Out
Excess weight isn’t always just a matter of diet. These are the most common underlying reasons weight won’t move:
- Thyroid function — even mild hypothyroidism significantly slows metabolism and makes weight loss very difficult. TSH and thyroid ultrasound will show whether this is a factor.
- Insulin resistance and pre-diabetes — glucose and HbA1c identify carbohydrate metabolism disorders that block fat loss and often cause no obvious symptoms.
- Iron and vitamin D deficiency — chronic fatigue that makes it hard to stay active and exercise is frequently caused by these deficiencies alone.
- Liver and lipid metabolism — ALT, AST, and a lipid profile show how your liver is functioning and whether there are underlying issues with cholesterol and fat processing.
- Abdominal organs — ultrasound detects fatty liver disease and other changes that affect metabolism and overall wellbeing.
Weight Loss with Endocrinologist Support
At your consultation, the doctor will review your results, identify what is making it harder for your body to lose weight, and build an individual plan.
If the diagnostic results indicate GLP-1 medications — Ozempic (semaglutide), Mounjaro (tirzepatide), or others — Dr. Myskina will recommend the right option and protocol. These medications are prescribed on clinical indication only, after a full review of your results and health history.
