I’ve had mild increase in tummy fat, aLao, after starting transdermal hrt, as well as , fluid retention in ankles. But, I will keep taking the HRT.

Are you using Estradiol or Estriol or a combination of both? If both, do you know the concentration of each?

Glad to hear you haven’t had side effects from Fortro!

Thank you! It's estradiol (14 mcg) and prometrium (100 mg 3x a week). The estradiol is a transdermal patch called Menostar. Best wishes to you on your journey!
