    Default Bloating when coming off the pill

    Hi everyone,

    About 2 1/2 months ago, I stopped taking the pill. Ever since, I've had moderate bloating in my stomach and my legs, which never happened to me, even before I started taking the pill. I'm drinking lots of water, eating fruits, vegetables, and fiber. My sodium intake is low, and I've taken diurex a few times. Nothing seems to help.

    Does anyone have any suggestions? I feel awful.

    Thanks!

    You are taking a drug and in addition to the effect you taking it for it has other effects. Have you tried adjusting your diet? Check into the Women's Advantage Diet, it was created by a doctor to allow women to use their hormonal changes to their advantage. Your body uses foods differently depending on where you are in your cycle. It won't hurt you and it might help, so why not give it a try?
