![]() ![]() Intrigued, I made an appointment with Dr Newson who prescribed me oestrogel, utrogestan and testosterone. ![]() It was around this time that I saw Dr Louise Newson on Lorraine and I also saw Carol Vorderman talking about some gel she rubbed into her skin. Having always battled with my weight, the thought of gaining more filled me with dread.Ībout a year ago, I was at my heaviest, depressed, exhausted, irritable and having several extreme hot flushes a day, I was miserable. My Mum and Mum-in-law had both been on HRT in the 80’s and had both gained at least 2 stone each. I thought about going on HRT for several years but was put off by the scare stories about cancer and weight gain. In fact, one of Dr Newson’s patients, Tracey, had a very different experience when she began taking HRT. However, several scientific studies show that there is no direct link between weight gain and the menopause itself. There are many women out there who worry about weight gain being a side effect of taking HRT.
