I've been fighting with the idea of to take or not to take estogen. I know I'm young to be going thru this. I was on Estrogen last year but opted to go off and take black cohosh instead. My question is: does being on estrogen cause weight gain and also, anybody read any new studies re; uterine/breast cancer??

Well maybe I'm not the very best person to answer this, but I can tell you that everytime we "touch" our hormones (estrogen or progestoron) you'll always be risking some side effects.
Now everybody is different so I cannot tell you how it'll be for you.

Hi sandy just a little note about estrogen.. dont take it.. it does in most cases make you gain weight .. also is linked to heart attack cancer and all the bad stuff . Black cohosh pumps up blood pressure.. I dont know what you need the hrt for but.. there is soy that helps with menopause... can get it over the counter called "healthy woman" I am a registered nurse.. I hope i have helped somewhat Good luck...
