If Mounjaro made you feel cooler, how long did it take to happen?

I know this is a heatwave, so it’s hard to tell, but I am always so hot and I am really hoping MJ might help as I have heard so many people say they felt cold even from the first dose. Nothing yet in week two. So I wondered, if it has made you feel colder when did that kick in?

started immediately from the first dose and lasted for the first two weeks, kinda wish I had that side effect back for the heatwaves

Mine was immediate. Like a reaction to the drug and the. For a few days after each of the first few doses and when I went up a dose. Gone now though - I could do with it!

Its not a side effect everyone gets

Immediately. Sadly where I live it’s a cold summer this year, so I’m freezing all the time.

Pretty much immediately but it gone stronger the more weight I lost. Even now I don’t feel hot in this weather. Partly from losing the padding I guess!

Mine was immediate but wore off after the first few weeks.
Shame as I could do with it right now!

Thanks everyone! Doesn’t look like it’s going to help me there but you never know I guess.

Mine was immediate too. And got worse the more weight I lost (like the previous poster, I think that was partly the loss of some of my padding). I went from someone who never took a coat (even when it was really cold outside) and couldn't bare layers of any kind, to someone wearing multiple layers, gloves, and sitting under a blanket with a heating pad INSIDE.
I have been at target weight (and maintaining on a smaller dose) since then and it has lessened. I just feel normal now - rarely aware that I am cold, unless the weather is really cold, perhaps slightly more tolerant of the heat, but not nearly as marked as it initially was.
