I started HRT about 2 months ago and have become lactose intolerant. Has anyone else experienced this? Ate a Greek yogurt today thinking it would be alright since it is low in lactose but now have severe cramps and bloating. I experienced the same symptoms 2 days ago when I ate a salad that had some cheese on it. Any remedy for cramping/bloating?

Same here. Most things I eat cause bloating (even salad) and I also suffer with constipation. My doctor said its the progesterone in the hrt that causes your bowel to slow down. I now have soya milk and try and avoid dairy. I've been diagnosed with IBS too and coffee def makes it worse. Convinced it's all caused by the HRT. Yet to find anything that really helps.

I have just finished my first month on HRT and I have constant bloating. On 3 occasion's the cramps were so severe I thought I was going to have to go to A & E. I hadn't linked it to the HRT but I will keep an eye on what I eat to see if there is a pattern
