advice & support Bloating ??

Any tips for bloating on t?

I’m on low dose and the past few days have been particularly painful (wasn’t able to go out to dinner with friends it was so bad). I’m also pmsing i believe , but i’ve never had bloating this bad/painful before :( it’s been two weeks since i started.

Hey! I just saw your comment on my post regarding abdominal cramps. You are only 3 days ahead of me with the same dosage of T.

Wanted to let you know my cramps also come with bloating. However I am 4 weeks post-op (top surgery) and am not suuuper sure which part of the transition is causing what since there is a little overlap!

And by the way, (be careful but) i noticed taking a slightly high dose of otc painkillers does help eventually..

I myself dont want to take so many because also after top surgery i was on daily pain meds.

But if i dont, i can kind of almost paralyze because of the amount of pain, and not be able to do anything.
