Water retention in thighs

Anyone else have ridiculous water retention? You can actually see it in my thighs. Some days it's horrible, some days not there. I take bio hormones and a 20 mg lasik. I'm 11 months without a period and have been on the hormones for awhile. I workout 6 days a week with weights and cardio. I cannot figure out how to beat this....I have put on about 10 lbs in the last 2 yrs that pretty much refuses to budge, but I also quit smoking. This has been the most frustrating thing, because I have always been very in tune with my body. I would really appreciate any advice or just knowing someone else has this issue. Thanx so much for this group. It's been a huge help mentally for me.

Some days I am up or down as much as 9 lbs...no way that big of a weight swing is anything other than water...but I haven't noticed it pooling in any one area except sometimes my boobs because they hurt when they swell.
Cypress essential oil helps, but you have to cut it with another oil because it's irritating if you apply it straight.2 -
Thank you, I'll read up on the oils. Mine may be worse on my legs due to the workouts I do.0
