"I am 22 and underwent oophorectomy surgery following 2 massive ovarian cysts on each ovary. Right out of surgery, I was prescribed Prempro and had to take it. I experienced hot flashes for the first few days. The doctor told me that if I felt bloated, I could skip a week and I would have a small period, which I have done. I had cramps and sporadic bleeding, but the bloating never went away. I have gained a lot of weight that has been really hard to lose, and I have been on this medicine for only 3 months. I also have really bad acne all over my face that I haven't had since junior high. Once I go back to the doctors, I will be asking to try another hormone replacement therapy."
