I have a bloated face due to high estrogen levels.i was on spironolactone for a yr bt dint notice any reductn in the swelling. bt spiro is a diuretic?

Bloated face: Your bloated face may not be due to fluid collection but rather to deposition of new fatty tissue which isn't significantly affected by diuretic administration. Fluid which collects in the facial area usually shows up in the areas around the eyes(periorbital edema)..
