Q I am a female, 25 yrs old, ca. I recently started gaining weight just in the stomach and it looks like as if i am pregnant but i have taken tests and blood work and i am not pregnant. I feel bloated all the time. Frequent urination, full feeling, and missed periods. Appetite is normal. Constipated feeling, i am active and eat healthy. Sometimes feel moving in stomach which feels like either my stomach digesting or growling. Thank you
If you are confirm about your negative pregnancy report and your periods are also irregular than possible reasons for your weight gain can be anxiety, bulemia, binge eating, hyperthyroidism, diabetes, PCOD, endometriosis,etc. Perform an abdominal ultrasound after which your diagnosis can be made and we can also advise you properly after the report. Mean while you are suggested following advise: Be selective in eating, eat salad and fruits more rather than junk and fried spicy food, do enough exercise and avoid food which produces gas like pulses in evening time, maida food etc. Hope to see your reports to guide you properly.
