Hello,
Many women believe that taking HRT will make them put on weight, but there's no evidence to support this claim. You may gain some weight during menopause, but this often happens regardless of whether you take HRT. Exercising regularly and eating a healthy diet should help you to lose any unwanted weight.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr AJEET SINGH, General & Family Physician
