It seems to me that all of us who didn't get a recurring period are suffering from the bloating so its definitely a hormone issue there. I went on provera recently so I just got my period. the bloating however isn't easing up and I did do all necessary bloodwork and all came back fine except for my T3/T4 which is def. due to yasmin. I'm tempted to take that waterpill for just a short time since I have so much of this retention that it practically ruins my life. The last 3 months was a nightmare. Especially now in the summer, I haven't stepped into a bathing suit yet.
My internist said it takes 6 months for your body to completely clean out of bc. He doesn't believe in natural products and told me that for the next 3 months I should take provera for 7 days starting on day 20 of my cycle so like this i will regulate my menstruation to 30 days thereafter.
It is all so confusing. everyone with different opinions.
Thanks everyone for your support and keep posting your strides in recovery. You all give us strength to hold out!
Love and light,
Sherry
