Hi, I had been gaining weight with every period at least a 1-2 pounds every month for a few years, which has added up to about 30 extra pounds-very frustrating. I would gain weight even when I had hardly nothing to eat! it had nothing to do with my good diet & excercising. The weight gain has finally halted! I have read it is a part of estrogen dominance, which usually goes along with endo. I do believe that one because now that my hormones are finally! balanced, I am losing weight & other symptoms are gone or are improving. Hormones were balanced by herbs etc...... Funny, I just looked up this site & I had all these other symptoms also-PMS, digestive problems,ovarian cysts,chronic yeast infections,constipation,chronic fatigue...... but not ALL of the symptoms here. http://www.greenspangoodhealth.com/diseases.html Lori At Tue, 24 Feb 2004, anonymous wrote: >
