Progesterone?
I recently started taking this medication (last month) and while it has really helped my mood swings, I was really looking forward to some weight loss with it...
Has or is anyone on this HRT and what is your experience with it???

I'm a little confused....is it a cream you have?? I haven't heard of it, but did find a site with a little more info: http://www.wdxcyber.com/nmood11.htm

I don't know of anyone who is on HRT, but I did find this article and IG has posted an article as well.

I'm not sure about any weight related side-effects with hormone replacement therapy, but do know that birth control pills which generally have progesterone in them can cause your weight to fluctuate.
