Q: Menopause And Edema
asked by: DianaJJ on July 24th, 2006

Hi,

since it's been so hot here in so. Calif, i've been retaining lots of fluid (edema) and my menopausal symptoms have been worse....More hot flashes and palpitations. When I cut back on sodium I lose the water and can actually lose about 3-4 pounds and feel much better. Does anyone have the same problem and is there anything else that can be done to avoid this? I know hormones play a big part in water retention.
