I've stopped taking fenugreek and fennel because I was gaining fat in the hips area. I'm pretty sure it's fat, I've always been pear shaped so if I gain some weight it always tends to go there...
I think this could be a sign that we don't need extra estrogen in our body!
Did you gain something in the breasts area too? I didn't

Thanks for the answer! and yes same thing happened to me...except i'm not really pair shaped I'm kinda more straight but ever since I started taking that stuff it make me wider, especially in the hip and thigh area. And no it did not do anything for my breasts at all. -__-

When you stopped taking the herbs did the fat gain in the hip area come off?

I stopped just a week ago so it's too soon, but I'm already noticing a difference, I'll let you know how it goes. Oh, I forgot to say my cellulite got worse too.

Oh really? I noticed that too. I've never had cellulite before but when my thighs started getting bigger I noticed I was getting it in that area. If ever you're interested I know about a supplement that is suppose to lower bad estrogen. It's called DIM. I have been using it for about 1 week now and I haven't noticed anything yet but I think it's too soon to tell. I did notice though that I haven't been getting headaches. Before I was getting them almost everyday for about 1-2 months but they were weird headaches..like the ones that linger and are like there but keep going off and on...I think it's kind of like a stress headache. The first day I started taking the supplement I didn't get a headache and it's been 1 week since then and haven't had one since... I'll let you know if I notice a difference on my hips and thighs after a few weeks of taking DIM. I'll keep you updated. Good luck take care !
