A member asked:
Hi, my thighs; arms and face show signs of water retention. its difficult to walk or use my forearms. im approaching my period soon. please advise ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Water retention ?: Overall effects of water retention can be caused by other conditions, and at "age 31" , it would be unusual for hormones to cause such exaggerated effect, even before one's period. Check with your physician if this persists, and be careful of sodium intake (salty foods) as this will aggravate your symptoms.
