I'm post-menopausal at 48 & was prescribed HRT by my gp about 6 months ago. I also suffer from long-term depression & take Sertraline. Since starting the HRT I've gained a lot of weight. I'm 5ft3 & have gained about 1 1/2 stone. My eating habits haven't really changed & I exercise regularly. It's really getting me down. Nothing fits but I have no money for a new wardrobe. Despite my depression having previously been under control it's now much worse & feeling fat & frumpy is not helping. Does anyone have experience of hrt & weight gain. The only option seems to be to come off it but it has improved the hot flushes/night sweats so I don't want to do that either. Help!!
