A few days have passé by with some weird things going on.... or not

Firstly, it's been a few days, apologies, my OH has been staying while working close by which, although lovely, has thrown my routine out somewhat. Ok, Thursday, cycle day 13? Wicked bad bearing down ovulation type pains, for a few hours in waves, then gone. Left behind for a further day or so, pressure in my bum on sitting, felt like I had no padding at all and had been sat for hours on a hard bench.  Then gone. No lingering one pain into another thing. I have a bit of a stiff back but I always do when OH is here cause I don't think I move about so much in the bed, so that is fairly normal.

Very little bloating still, pleased with that, but think I have a little overall oedema as I'm getting comments from loved ones about weight gain - I've not put any on but do look puffy, and have noticed that socks appear really tight from the marks they are leaving but aren't at all.

So, I'm now in the second half of my cycle and I don't feel uncomfortable all the time as would be usual. I do feel a bit tired, lethargic, walking through treacle, lead legs etc but often did with a higher progesterone level, so guess maybe I'm still cycling to some degree.  I know I do want to go back to my weight loss plan, but have promised myself a full cycle without ketosis so I can identify prostap/hrt se without the confusion of ketosis/vlcd thrown into the mix.

All very interesting. I have still got some pain at some times, but overall it is much improved, and I think the pain left may be related to adhesions, but still, I would be happy if a hysterectomy gave the pain improvements I've seen so far with prostap and could much more easily manage what's left.
