Does estrogen hormone therapy cause weight gain?

My sister was very worried about weight gain when prescribed this therapy. My mother suggested some herbal drinks, but we decided to trust her doctor's advice. The doctor adjusted her dosage, and she managed to keep her weight stable with normal home food.

I have been on estrogen replacement for two years now. Yes, there was some initial bloating, but it went away once I cut down on processed foods and walked 5k steps daily. Don't worry, just stay active and you won't balloon up.

I track my wife's health metrics on our smart scale, and we noticed some minor water weight fluctuations when she started hormone therapy. It is not actual fat gain. If you track your calorie intake and keep moving, you can easily manage it.

Beta, these modern hormone medicines can sometimes cause bloating in the body. Try drinking warm fennel water (saunf ka paani) in the morning to help with digestion and swelling. Take care and eat light meals.

Hey, don't stress too much about gaining weight! A lot of it is just temporary bloating when your body is adjusting to the therapy. Just drink plenty of water, eat your meals on time, and give your body some time to settle.
