While you're at it...get your estrogen and progesterone tested. Go to my thread "Wellbutrin and pitting edema for 3 months". Anyway, there's a situation going on for women called Estrogen Dominance...and a lot of women go through it for years and years (up to 15!) without it being diagnosed. It can cause tons and tons of symptoms. I'm not saying you have it...but as long as you're testing...if you read about Progesterone Low/Estrogen Dominance you're eyes are going to fly wide open and you're going to think "Why aren't more doctors ordering this simple saliva test for women?" You can even order the test online for 60$. However, I do NOT know when in your cycle you should take the test, or even if that is important...so I'm not advocating you take the test yourself....just FYI.
