Endometriosis Awareness - Endo Belly

Today, I want to address endo belly. It isn't a professional term but it is widely used by both patients and doctors. "Endometriosis bloat—known as endo belly is one of the most odious endometriosis symptoms. On any given day, the lower abdomen can swell, setting off physical and mental anguish. The bloating can stay for days, weeks, or disappear after a few hours. You might think bloating is a normal part of every woman’s cycle, but this is not normal bloating, and endometriosis is not a normal cycle. "Women in the general public may get bloating a day or two before their cycle,” says Karli Goldstein, DO, consulting surgeon and medical advisory board member for the Endometriosis Foundation of America, “but endometriosis bloat can be more drastic and persist longer.” Endo belly typically gets worse as the day goes on. “Frequently, patients will be fine in the morning, and it will get bigger and bigger until the evening when they can’t button t

That, by far, is not something you say to someone who is feeling the way I was. So when I did get a new pysch doctor I was worried about more of the same. However, I was pleasantly surprised but how well the appointment went. I was told there is a TON of medication I haven't tried so giving up is not an option. Also, I was told if the next medication they were going to try didn't work we could consider doing a DNA test to see which would best fit with my immune system. It woul
