Digestive disorders: why, what to do?
+ half of women suffer from digestive disorders on a daily basis.
The causes can vary: Endometriosis, IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome), SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth), Celiac disease, Crohn's disease, etc.
The signs can be diarrhea alternating with constipation, pain when passing stools or blood in the stools (rectorrhagia), but also nausea, bloating (like "Endo Belly", "pregnant woman's belly" ) or a total cessation of stools and gas, which can create intestinal obstructions. They may vary depending on your menstrual cycle.
In addition to your medical appointments, naturopathy/micro-nutrition follow-up is recommended to treat the causes in depth and hope for real long-term well-being. Follow-up in osteopathy can also be of great help in soothing menstrual and digestive pain.
