HRT & weight gain / weight loss | Felice Gersh, MD

Concerns about weight gain are one of the leading reasons that some women are wary of using hormone replacement therapy (HRT).

Some of the questions I address in this talk: Can HRT cause weight gain and if so, what type of weight? Why do women in menopause tend to gain weight? What is weight redistribution? Can HRT cause weight loss? Can adding androgens to traditional HRT improve weight profile? Watch for my latest Instagram lives at   / dr.felicegersh   I am a full time practicing doctor.
