Saralnama43-year-old Amy Schumer recently shared her perimenopause experience on Instagram. She tried Wegovy earlier but had side effects. Now, Schumer uses hormones and Mounjaro, a diabetes drug. She reports fuller hair, better skin, more energy, and improved libido. Dr Chetna Jain of Cloudnine Hospital Gurgaon explains Mounjaro mimics gut hormones to manage blood sugar and appetite. It may help with perimenopause symptoms by improving insulin response. However, it's not for everyone. Those with certain medical conditions should avoid it. Side effects can include nausea and constipation. Dr Jain advises consulting a doctor for personalized treatment. (Updated 2 Oct 2025, 01:04 IST; source: link)
