The research all says this is not true but 2 weeks ago I upped my estrogel dosage.  In the same time period nothing changed in my life ie food, activity.  Now I am 3lbs heavier and I am convinced it must be the HRT ( or a very spooky coincidence).  Just wondered if I am alone in this or not?

I put on weight the first week I started HRT - 7lbs in 3 days.
However, I feel it was all my dried out cells puffing up with fluid as the skin at the top of my arms, for instance, went from being a bit dried out and wrinkly to smooth skin again.

I also rationalised feeling better was preferable to being half stone lighter

No weight gain for me! Actually I feel more energetic and can continue my training as before my meno. Hrt helps me not to feel hungry all the time!

Hello ladies.

My weight has stayed pretty much the same but I've noticed fluctuations in my appetite in that I have spells of feeling ravenously hungry followed by periods of no appetite and wanting to eat very little. I assume these episodes even out over time and that explains the unchanged weight.

Take care ladies.
