There’s a slight increase in the blood pressure in your upper body, and a small possibility of thrombosis, blood clots forming in your veins. But after 50+ years of space flight no one has had complications.
also who would stay more than 6 months in space? a journey to mars takes about 6 months on the most fuel-efficient trajectory.
due to how weird orbital mechanics are, there’s one (and only this one) most fuel-efficient trajectory between earth and mars and it’s the so-called Hohmann Transfer Orbit ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hohmann_transfer_orbit ). It takes 6 months.

Though most don’t stay more than a few months up there.
