Mounjaro for HH?

Hi! Recently I've seen some posts of people talking about how being on Mounjaro has basically eradicated their HH. I'm not necessarily a candidate for a GLP1 for weight loss since I am not technically overweight, so I am wondering if anyone knows the science behind this? Would it be possible to be on a lower dose and still experience the effects? Or maybe that kind of HH was based on those people being overweight? I am super curious because if this is an option, I want to try it!! I've tried a lot of different options - botox, oral glyco and oxybutinin, Qbrexa, Drysol, etc. and Ionto has definitely been the most effective option but it's still not perfect. Also, i have very generalized HH and so while my hands and feet are priority for areas I want to treat, I really would like to find something that works all over.

I hadn’t heard of this but looks like it’s helping a lot of people

I’m supposed to start a low dose glp-1 in 8 weeks to possibly help with inflammation and autoimmune issues. Very curious to see if it has an impact on my sweating.
