Hi,
Thank you for choosing XXXXXXX I have analyzed your query completely, considering your present symptom it is wise decision to stop prempro. Presently you require a clinical evaluation, per-speculum examination and PAP smear. I also recommend to get scan pelvis to know the uterine problems like thickened endometrial lining.
I also advise you to get some blood investigations like complete haemogram, renal function, because anaemia or renal problem could be a reason for swelling. So all the possibilities should be kept in mind.
