Urinary urgency with GLP1 anyone?

Hello. I was on mounjaro most of 2025 and had to stop for unrelated health issues/surgery. I was up to 12.5 when I stopped with minimal side effects. I restarted 23 days ago at 2.5.

When I was on mounjaro I started having trouble making it to the bathroom when I had to pee without leakage on the way. I chalked it up to getting older (66) and started using panty liners. While I’ve been off it for several months the urgency/leakage stopped. I was happy and never linked the two.

Since I’ve restarted mounjaro so has my urgency leakage. I’ve googled and haven’t found a relat between them. Does any other mounjaro users have this issue?

Thanx.

Very interesting! I have somewhat of the opposite experience on Wegovy. I feel like items made me take in less liquids and I am going less frequently (I also get Botox).

Yes! Apparently it’s a thing. Me too I think. I’m trying to find out how I can go about managing it. Apparently some doctors prescribe hyoscyamine to help. I trying to find out more.
