Anyone gone from Wegovy injection straight to tablet?

I've read through a few threads on the tablets but most seem to be starting tablets when they haven’t tried WLI before, or going from Mounjaro to tablets. Anyone out there that have been taking Wegovy injections and switched straight to tablets? Currently on 1.7mg and the equivalent is 9mg tablet. Any new side effects from switching?

I haven't switched straight from one to another but I have tried Wegovy injections and lost quite a bit, albeit slowly. Then tried Mounjaro as wanted see if it's any better, for me it wasn't and didn't justify extra cost.
I've recently tried Wegovy pill for a month. Couldn't get on with it. Hate the routine of making sure 8 hours of not eating/drinking anything before taking it in the morning and then 30 mins after taking it. Sounds easy but in reality I take HRT tablets at night so needed to be 8 hours before I could then take Wegovy in morning. So have to remember time I take HRT every night. Then not being able to have a coffee or even water when you wake up. I also like to drink a bit of water in the night, but that's a no. Too annoying for me.
Also anyone on HRT remember you may need to adjust your Progesterone as the WL meds affect absorption.
