Question: Irritable bowel syndrome maybe? It is becoming common theses days.
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a long-term condition that causes re-occurring pain or discomfort in the abdomen (tummy) and an altered bowel habit. IBS can develop at any age, but most people have their first symptoms between the ages of 15 and 40. Women are more likely to get IBS and to have more severe symptoms.
About irritable bowel syndrome
IBS is now one of the most common problems of the digestive system: about one in six people in the UK have occasional symptoms. It causes pain in the abdomen and an altered bowel habit.
Symptoms
Most people with IBS find their symptoms an occasional nuisance, but don't need to see a doctor. However, for some people the condition seriously affects their quality of life. Most people with IBS continue to get symptoms from time to time. The symptoms include the following.
Pain
The most common symptom of IBS is pain or discomfort in the abdomen. The pain may be mild to severe, and may be made either better or worse by opening the bowels, passing wind or eating.
Pain may occur at a particular time of day, often in the evening. Women may find the ups and downs of pain relates to their menstrual cycle.
Change in bowel habits
With IBS, your faeces may vary in consistency from hard and pellet-like to loose and watery. Alternatively, you may just pass small amounts of mucus. You may find that your bowel habit alternates between constipation and diarrhoea. Afterwards, you may feel that your bowels haven't been completely emptied.
IBS usually causes one symptom more than the others - either pain, constipation or chronic diarrhoea.
Other symptoms
These include a bloated abdomen, passing excess wind, feeling sick and indigestion. Some people also experience a sense of fullness.
These symptoms may be caused by problems other than IBS though.
You should visit your GP though. Im just hazarding a guess.

That's hot. Although the illiteracy isn't.

Sorry to hear that John.
No you're not.
why not go for a sex change?
Wow, Paris Hiltons kind of man.
Funny you look and sound more like a 12 year old boy!
Stop eating meat - it sits in your intestines for weeks, so it's not a surprise it smells bad.
Drink lots of water and eat high fiber food.
Improve you diet. It is probably what you are eating.
avoid fizzy drinks, surbert nd stuff like dat
hannah xx
........have we met before!
hi, i'm a 52 yo man and i suffer from the same thing. what are you doing after this question? wink...
How can you have a male avatar and a name like John then claim that you are female?
Ugh. what shall we do then? Have a mutual smell my bum competition.
Look up "estrogen dominance" on the web. Get a good BIO-IDENTICAL progesterone cream (I recommend Emertia). Also may want to try a colon cleanse of some sort.
Good Luck!
....try and stay inside, alone as much as you can..... defo avoid public transport....!!
wow!!!!! Disgusting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...
I agree with kaybee. How are you female again? I'm so confused!
First, see a doctor because that might be serious. Secondly, how is your diet? Sometimes poor diets can influence flatulence and bloating. Also, you could be intolerant of some foods like lactose.
Me too...wuff wuff
I notice there is a question mark at the end of your broken sentence, but you do not ask a question.
