Hi Rosy
Rosy not sure if you decided to come of HRT on your own or with a push from a friend or doc (usual pattern).
I think a lot of us look at HRT as the first thing to blame.
As your seeing you've stopped and its not changed anything, so therefore not the actual problem.
Your situation will get worse as further meno symptoms come crashing back.
I'd say get back on and look to other things like diet and the other drugs first for bloating.
Most of my weight gain was increasing before I went on HRT. Since HRT things have stabilized and I don't seem to be creeping up the scales each day.
Like others I had headaches before HRT but since starting those have reduced to almost nothing now. Still get headaches but nothing like the years running up to starting HRT.
Hope you manage to get back to where you were and feel better.
