Do Norethindrone And Estradiol Aggravate Weight Gain?
Hello, my doctor prescribed norethindrone and estradiol for my ongoing signs of menopause. I m 51 and worried about weight gain. I don t like to take medication and the irregular periods, brain fog and hot flashes something I can live with. But not the weight gain. I m weighing in at 206 lbs already and don t need to gain anymore. What should I expect on the medication? Thanks so much!

hi,
welcome to health care magic
harmonal pills especially with estrogen may cause the increased waist fat gain, but you will have to consider the postmenopausal changes which are more severe than weight gain, weight gain can be reduced by reggular exercise and yoga, have healthy diet , drink plenty of fluids
take care.
