I am starting to be really considered with my stomach bloating. It’s like I am pregnant. I started back on pills due to ovarian cyst (not diagnosed with pcos) and I’ve gained weight but it’s not terrible. However, my stomach is ridiculously bloated especially two weeks prior to my period! What do I do?!

Have you tried increasing easily digestible fiber and water intake? I have major issues with bloating too. Do you go to the bathroom regularly? Has your diet changed? Some medications can do it!

This may not be your issue at all, but ask your doc to check for celiac disease just in case. Bloating was my number one symptom.

Fasting has helped my bloating. I fast for an average of 16 hours a few days a week

Get some testing done.
- SIBO, IBS, Food Allergies, probiotics or their overuse, low stomach acid, eating disorders, low motility, nor enough fiber, nutritional deficient s - all could be culprits
- make sure there are no cysts forming

Sometimes you have to rule things out to focus your energy and the likely suspects. For me, I had to undergo treatment fir SIBO and use some supplements to break down my food for a while to deal with the bloating. Once back to a state of regulation, I’m living my life again! You can too! You just need to find out the cause and treat that.

Is it sad that I want to take mental health leave desperately but am worried if I leave in the next month I’ll screw over my team who is already short staffed and has a huge case that’s going to trial at the end of the month?
