[quote=Anonymous]I just had a consultation with a menopause specialist, and she said that Estrogen is a vasodilator. I have significant problems with edema in my legs/feet. She said estrogen supplementation shouldn't make it worse, but that doesn't make sense to me? Separately, she suggested looking into Yaz for my teenager (a birth control pill without progesterone). I was curious and looked up side effects - edema in legs and feet is a side effect! So I'm wary of trying estrogen now. Is there anyone here who has trouble with edema who has also tried HRT? How did it go for you?[/quote]
