Does HRT make you more accident prone?

[Christy82]

I have noticed that lately I seem to stub my toe or hurt my hand more, and I'm always hitting a shin or a knee on something. Just the other day, I slipped and fell and banged up my elbow and I think I broke a toe.  I never have really had a fall, and my balance is very good.

I have also noticed I spill things more, and have went through two pc keyboards in the past week because of that. 

Any way, just thought I would ask and see if I was the only one.

It hasn't done that to me.  Are you getting dizzy?  That's the only cause I can think of.

You're not washing them down with whiskey, I trust?

Are you getting dizzy?  That's the only cause I can think of.

Spironolactone can cause dizziness if blood pressure drops too much. It's important to drink enough plain water and eat enough salt to compensate for their increased loss with the drug.

Bio-identical progesterone can also cause dizziness due to sedative effects.

I haven't been getting dizzy, and I had to quit drinking and smoking to stay on HRT.
I thought I have been drinking enough water, but I will try to drink more, and I don't think salt is a problem, I can't seem to eat anything anymore without it having extra salt.

Christy82 it's probably the nicotine with drow I had that happen before it should go away after a while.

Well your body is changing ... its possible you kind of need to readjust to the feeling ...
some things will be different, watch for doors and car doors ... when your boobies start to grow its possible you bump up there ...

you might do a few exercises regularly , like taking a walk ... to help you get more accustomed to the body ...

Yes, it turned me into a dumb blonde that cannot do math, think abstractly, focus on anything, lift heavy objects or even complete a ......

Oh, just kidding   It makes me laugh when people suggest they do expect the above will be true.  As Laura notes, I really did feel the need to adjust to my changing body proportions.  We have had several threads dedicated to bumping our growing boobs into everything and everyone.   And we're sooo sensitive too.

Haha no accidents for me.

One of my tricks in my athletic hobby requires an insane amount of balance to do, and I can do it.  I've never seen anyone else do this trick in person, and only a few people online.
