My hrt is giving me diarrhea, i have changed brands but no luck otherwise it's working great! can i take anti diarrhea meds every day long term?

Cause & effect?: Hi. Correlation does not establish cause and effect. I bet it is more likely your diarrhea is caused by something other than your HRT. The fact you have diarrhea and you're taking HRT does not imply the HRT is causing the diarrhea. The HRT and diarrhea may just be coincidental. I'd suggest you speak with a gastroenterologist to consider other causes of diarrhea. Good luck!
