How long can fluid retention from stopping hormonal birth control pills last? i stopped in december but am still swelling.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. Is there visible swelling of some body parts or are you referring to your weight. Try to reduce your salt intake. If it is weight gain you will need to try reducing your food intake and increasing physical activity.
