Avatar f tn I have started on my IVF meds. Only one more day on femara, and started the follistim at 225iu last night. It burns after injecting. I have had 5 pound weight gain since starting Femara.

Avatar f tn celery onion parsley garlic peppermint eggplant cabbage cranberries asparagus corn cucumber grapes watermelon Some sources say to reduce intake of parsley and celery to avoid water retention.

I found out I am gluten intolerant so that means damage and inflammation for the last 45 years but I am gluten-free and almost grain free now. I drink a lot and pee a lot so it is almost like my body is somehow intolerant to water or leaking it through my intestines? Diuretics have never worked and I have no signs of kidney disease.

Avatar n tn Are you drinking 2 to 3 liters of water daily or have you been diagnosed with a urinary tract infection? If you cannot void at all, your urologist may have you self cath for a period of time. If you could provide more information, perhaps our suggestions would not have to be so general. Good luck.
Avatar f tn LOL no. It's water. Water is water. Drinking lots of water in general will help with water retention. But sometimes no matter what you do or how much you drink you're going to retain water!

Avatar f tn I had a lot of water retention after surgery while I was in the hypo state waiting for radioactive iodine. My feet, ankles and face swelled up pretty bad. My eyes felt like someone was pushing on them from the inside they were so swollen. My face looked like a moonpie, it was ridiculous. I did not try and kind of water tablets or anything though. I just drank tons of water and it eventually subsided.
Avatar f tn Water weight is the amount of water retention in your body. They check your ankles and hands for swelling, usually means you're retaining too much water & could be sign of preclampsia. Too much salty & sweet foods can be the culprit. You need to push your fluids to push out the salts & sweets. & kick your feet up. You can tell if its water weight if you are swollen or puffy like around your eyes, fingers, ankles. Its common in pregnancy because of our hormones also.
