Big belly!
« on: February 05, 2023, 02:46:08 PM »

Hi all, I've recently been diagnosed as going through an early menopause I'm well in the peri menopause stage and I'm on eostrogen and progesterone. I've got a lot of fluid retention so I'm drinking ginger and peppermint tea which is helping however I can't seem to shift anything from my abdomen, I look pregnant! I'm doing yoga is there any other suggestions you have I could try please? Thank you

It may well B that as oestrogen levels drop the elasticity of the belly area has become lax.  My apron dropped several years ago, from above I look fatter, laying down my belly is flat  ::)

How R U otherwise?   :welcomemm:
