HRT and weight

I have just started taking hormone replacement therapy after my hysterectomy. Does this cause weight gain?

All hormone replacement therapies cause weight gain. Even though some professionals claim this is not so, the evidence for this is overwhelming. While fluid accumulation accounts for most weight gain, some women even build up fat around the hips and buttocks. The only way to avoid the weight gain is by enrolling in an exercise program. Start walking more and eat less.
