serious water retention on var

lith56

Swelling....
4th week of var cycle for my honey at 20 mg per day and she is starting to retain some serious water. even showing in her ankles etc. IT completely diminishes during her killer workouts but them returns again the next day. Anyone familiar with this. Shes using liquid var and its towards the bottom. I don't think its consistent and now shes getting an over load from the crystals left in a smaller concentration of liquid

I noticed the same thing around week 4-5 on my cycle of var. Water retention lasted for about a week, then it started coming off. I'm currently around week 11, and if I'm retaining any, it's pretty slight. But it was pretty significant for some reason around the same time for me too. Big ankles and legs, puffy fingers. I just made sure to up my water intake, and it started coming off.
 
I honestly don't know if it's hormonal or not. I take the Depo-Provera shot, so I don't have monthly cycles. But I was really uncomfortable, and the retention would be there one day and not so bad the next. But it took about a week...maybe week and a half...for it to totally dissipate. But make sure she keeps up the water intake :)
 
My understanding is its not hormonal at all, everyone reacts differently to anabolic steroids...period. My experience with Anavar (var) was water retention, while most people dry out from it. It gave me some great gains in the gym but I couldn't drop the water. Have you thought about adding in some arimadex? I would look into that as well, my boyfriend put me on it and it definitely helped.
