Do Prometrium And Estraderm Cause Weight Gain?
i am 57 y/o and on my last patch of estalis 50/140 continuous patch (there are no more available in australia apparently GRRR) i have a few options and wanted an opinion. prometrium 100 mg and estraderm mx 50. or estradot 50 patch and primolut n 5mg for a fortnight each month (will this cause bleeding and if so can i just take it continuously and not just fortnightly?) will one of these options cause weight gain ? because i would like to avoid this if possible. regards Carol
