How to treat facial edema in estrogen dominance?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Adam Levy answered

Dominance??: There is no such thing as estrogen dominance. Edema that occurs with your cycle is normal and goes away on its own. Don't try to treat something that is not a desease. It only results in disappointment and possible harm.
