How to combat Water Retention/Bloating

ad

I’m currently on a small cut cycle. I train for 1-2 hours a day and box (cardio) for another 30 min a day. 2300 calories a day 230p/230c/52f. I use NuSalt in replacement as regular salt. But I’m struggling for the first time ever with water retention. My face looks far as fuck and my hand when I wake up are swollen and sometimes numb. WTF can I do to combat this?

Stats:
38 | 210lbs | 5’11”

Cycle:
400mg/wk Test E
200mg/wk Mast
25mg/ed Proviron
40mcg/ed Clen
3i/u ed HGH

Supplements :
40mg Telimisartan
2g Omega 3
50mg Zinc
5g taurine
1200mg NAC
100mg coq-10
1.5 gallon water a day

Get blood test. Whats your ai? Boxing on clen is insane for the heart.

Looks like a side effect from two products in this cycle:

  1. Test-E is not a very good choice for a cut cycle. TEST-P orTEST-PH are more appropriate. It would be nice to do a blood test for E2.

  2. Carpal tunnel syndrome when using HGH. Pay more attention to the manufacturer and source of this product. If it is a generic, then it is better to change HGH.

I wouldn't exclude HGH completeltly. Different HGH (generics) can give different water retention. It would appear to be connected to HGH quality (judging by the dosage Urrjay uses barnded HGH)

Some people just get bad water retention on HGH, some brands seem to be worse for it than others.

Maybe try increasing sodium? It’s not about just having low sodium it’s about having the right electrolyte ratios, especially since your drinking 1.5 gallons of water, you probably need way more salt. Get bloodwork and include basic metabolic panel and that’ll show electrolytes. Lower hgh. Try dandelion root and check estrogen

Sodium
E2
Carbohydrates
Creatine

These are what what causes me all my water retention. Figure these things out and you’ll probably get your water retention to a level you’re comfortable with.

Also 1.5 gallons of water a day! Holy shit you drink like almost double me. How do you not live in the rest room? I already have to piss like 20 times a day.

What the hell salt! I drink isotonic drinks every day and add salt to salads! Fluid retention is always E2 and carbohydrates! And you also need to be active for intestinal motility and shit normally! Does anyone still ask questions about fluid retention?) And I on cycle deca+test+dbol

Lower your HGH dose. HGH can cause water retention. Whenever you get bad sides go down 1 or 2 iu. Build back up after 2 weeks no sides by 1 iu a week. Hope that helps. I also wake up with numb hands. Currently on genotropin 4th a day.

I second this suggestion without going to get blood drawn to check estrogen

Get some bloods done your e2 might be elevated, lower your sodium intake and you can try supplementing with some dandelion root. Keep in mind HGH causes water retention as well
