Bloat and High Estrogens?

[mikeheavypecs]

Hey guys,

My bodyfat is coming down (approx 8%) but the bloat in my stomach is getting major. In the mornings my abs look good and my "stomach" area small. By the end of the day, it looks like I had blown it up with an air hose or something. I seem to remember that high estrogens can cause a bloated affect. Is this true? I have started Nolva just in case....

Thanks!
Mike

i have never attributed this to estrogen rather the constant intake of food and liquids throughout the day. weigh yourself 1st thing in the morning then last thing at night and notice the difference, i bet your several lbs heavier. that weight is the thousands of calories digesting in your stomach inturn causing the bloat. the stomach is empty in the morning thus flatter and more defined creating a leaner appereance. my theory anyways.

while that is true estrogen and bloat go hand in hand

If they are flat in the AM then bloated later it is just food in your digestive system you have stretched out your stomach from eating and when its full your going to look bloated no matted how lean and dry you get

My waist circumference can change about 4 inches between am and after a meal

It is absolutely right as vespa and edge mentioned. If in the morning you are flat, this is because you have an empty stomack. I have the same problem and the only way to fix it is to reduce the food intake per meal and increase the number of meals. You have to figure out which foods makes you bloated and try to avoid them. Have your last meal no later than 6.30 pm.

Bump that and just wanted to add that the other reason you look more cut in the morning is due to the entire area of your body releasing water(minor sweat) through out the night...

Thanks for the replies, guys......

It gives me an idea of what is going on........I have been on Test Enan 400 for a longggggg time and I also think my estrogens have been building up......

my question now is why doesn't Nolva help the estrogen bloat in the stomach???

Thanks!
Mike

Also remember that anabolic steroids can, and do, cause water retention independent of estrogen, through their effects on the kidneys for example.
