Hello,

Prempro is essentially a combination of estrogen and Progestrone. Weight and appetite changes are possible side effects of the drug. Additionally, it can cause what is known as breakthrough bleeding.

However, if it persists, it may be wise to undergo endometrial sampling. That would help assess the healthiness of your endometrium.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Pranav Balakrishnan
