Extremely Bloated After Endo Surgery

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Pittsburgh, PA

Has anyone else experienced horrible bloating AFTER surgery? I am almost 6 weeks PO. I am bloated on a daily basis and it seems to be getting worse. Also missed periods (not pregnant). I am not as concerned with the missed periods, as I am with this bloating. It does not seem normal to me. I look like I've gained weight because of it. I am very healthy, exercise daily, and this is ruining my life! Anyone with same symptoms please help!

First question is always going to be...Are your bowels moving? Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Perhaps take stool softeners or Miralax. It is imperative to keep the stool soft and moving. If it "sits" inside your colon, it becomes evil and causes bloating.

Dates, nuts and seeds are good dietary fiber, as well as leafy greens.

I saw a holistic doctor and he said because of the surgery my adrenals are out of wack. If you google “adrenal and weight gain” i have every symptom. Im on medicine for it and it seems to be helping.
