Hi there
was wondering if anyone can suggest a good remedy for bloating and constipation associated with the IBS part of endo. This part of endo is the one i experience the most, the IBS part. thats the main pain I get, like I get mega constipated, and when it gets bad enough, the wind builds up and I end up having the worst stomach cramps and spasms, when they get really bad I end up at the doctors for an injection! have done all the right things with my diet but it still happens on occasion when the constipation gets really bad. and I have periods when its not so bad, but other times I wont go for like 4 days. then I know I am in trouble. I know I probably have endo on my bowel like they have found the past 2 times I have had surgery.
my digestion is pretty bad even though I eat really really well and follow the endo diet. I take flax seed oil that seems to help a bit. If I took progesterone cream this would all go away as it has in the past, I had no bloating, or IBS really when i was on it, I just cant take it because it doesnt suit me, makes me bleed every 8 days my body is too sensitive to it. so now im sort of doing this management thing naturally with supplements etc.
but the constipation needs to be sorted out.

I have also heard about putting psyllium in aloe vera juice, soothes inflammaton in the colon as well as cleaning you out.
I often do a yoga pose that really helps with constipation. Sit with your knees and shins underneath you, with your bottom between your feet. Breathe slowly and deeply. for at least a minute, up to 10 minutes...

I find that a heating pad on my adbomen eases the pain. My husband says thats because it's a center (pressure point or something). I also use beano. This is a herbal pill for gas. Sometiems it helps, soetimes it doesn't. It seems to work when I have eaten something I shouldn't have. But, if your ot doing that, I'm not so sure it would work for you.
