These are especially prevalent in popular conversation because of their purported use by Hollywood actors and other celebrities. However, some women who were on Ozempic recently took to social media to announce their pregnancy, even though they were taking birth control pills. Whatâs more, certain others who had been diagnosed as â[infertile](â conceived after a course of these drugs. Scientists reveal that in some cases, increased fertility in women who have been injected with Ozempic or Wegovy is [plausible](, but in the current circumstances, they are awaiting more information. âï¸ [âPlanet-killerâ: Mount Everest-sized asteroid to fly by Earth this week]( What could be called a rare event, two [âpotentially hazardousâ asteroids]( are set to fly past Earth this week, albeit they donât pose any threat to our planet. While Asteroid (415029) 2011 UL21 will pass near Earth on June 27, Asteroid 2024 MK will fly by on June 29. Nicknamed the [âplanet-killer,â]( 2011 UL21 is on a trajectory to make its closest approach to Earth in over a century. Interestingly, Asteroid 2024 MK was discovered earlier this month, just 13 days before its close pass by Earth. While smaller than the asteroid 2011 UL21, it is still a considerable size, ranging between [390 and 885 feet]( in diameter. Love what you're reading, but too many emails?
