Does creatine cause any type of bloat

[Darones]

I've been using creatine for the past two weeks and I'm wondering if it causes any type of bloat
The reason is I seem to have gained 8 lb and also my cholesterol levels have gone over 200 for the first time in my life. just wondering if this could be from the creatine or if it could be from something else

Something else. Yours would the first time I've seen someone state this as an issue. What kind and form are you using?

if you overdose on creatine then bloating can happen, however it is highly unlikely it will cause cholesterol issues

I don’t think you could run into this issue. Unless you are over using it.
