I was thinking that progesterone caused luteal swelling. but The article seems to imply birth control pills, which are progestins, reduce swelling. Maybe I'm reading to much into it, and drawing a too early conclusion on something that isn't spelled out in that article.

It also implies that diuretics reduce swelling. First it says swelling is growth then implying a lot of it is water. Must be due to both. hmm, water.

I don't think swelling in luteal phase is growth .. I had it on the BC and until last month (I'm currently 7 months off the BC).. And I hadn't got any growth on the BC..

I think it implys water ..
All articles say something different. One says estrogen causes luteal swelling, another one that progesterone causes it and the others say it's an hormonal imbalance .. Difficult to decide whats true!
