A member asked:

Took estratest hs for years with good results. now on premarin (conjugated estrogens) .625. don't like it. which is the closest hrt to estratest hs with no weight gain?

Testosterone: Estratest (esterified estrogens and methylestosterone) had a hefty dose of testosterone for women, which is why you liked it -- but it isn't the healthiest drug for women to take because of the testosterone. It's no longer available on the us market. The estrogen you're taking is one half of the dose that was in estratest, (esterified estrogens and methylestosterone) again probably having something to do with you're not liking it. Talk with your gyn. There is disagrement re estrogen tx.
