Hi Girly, I'm no expert 
but I think it is due to the hormonal imbalance (which in your case is not necessary a bad thing!) - estrogen or progesterone overload. In certain cases it causes fluid retention - remember how a pregnant woman looks like? So I would say give it time and see. I tried herbal NBE a while ago and it caused swelling too (not the ankles though as far as I can remember), my breasts were swolen and my face a little bit. After the period it was usually all gone.
