Topic Title: weight gain with 5 HTP
| | "weight gain with 5 HTP" , Wed 20 Apr 19:27
I started taking 5 HTP about two weeks ago to help with my mood and to help me get off of lexapro. I also have been having difficulty losing weight, so I was hoping that 5 HTP would help with that. It seems like I have only been gaining weight since I started taking it. Has anyone had this problem? Or, could it be the bloating it has caused? Also, I have noticed my breasts getting bigger. I noticed that happening when I started taking lexapro. Anyone with a similar experience? I really want to keep taking 5 HTP, but I am super scared of gaining weight because I think it would be hard to lose considering I am still taking a little bit of lexapro.

I ALSO NOTICE THAT I GET VERY BLOATED FROM 5-HPT AND SO DID MY FAMILY NOTICE IT TOO. I ALSO WAS VERY BLOATED WHEN I WAS ON ZOLOFT.

Most women don't complain too much about breast enlargemnt.

I read an article that said that fish oil helped with weight loss issue. I have been using it for 6 months and it seems to help with that as well as helping me sleep. It take a few weeks to get going.
Life is good!!!?!

I am trying 5HTP for the 1st time today for weight loss. somebody came into the store and told me it is supposed to burn fat while you sleep. so, am trying it today but i feel very relaxed and sleep and so far today have taken 150 mg. i didn't know it was for depression or stress related things but boy am i relaxed and am really really hoping that it works for weight loss.

When I used to take it, I lost so much weight, people at work were constantly asking me what I was doing.
