Menopause And Edema
Posted: 07-24-06 06:58am

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.
