Hello, I am Dr. Romain Rajan, General Physician.
I understand your concern â frequent mild loose stools, bloating, and cramps after eating fatty foods, during travel, or around periods is understandably distressing, especially after delivery. Since your colonoscopy and abdominal ultrasounds are normal, this is likely functional, related to diet, hormones, or mild gut sensitivity
â
Advices
⢠Avoid high-fat, spicy, and processed foods temporarily; eat smaller, frequent meals with easily digestible foods
⢠Include soluble fiber from oats, bananas, and cooked vegetables to help regulate stool consistency
⢠Stay hydrated and consider gentle probiotics daily; yogurt or commercially available lactobacillus-containing probiotics can be helpful
⢠Maintain good sleep, manage stress, and avoid long gaps without meals
What to Monitor
⢠Watch for worsening diarrhea, persistent abdominal pain, blood in stool, or unintentional weight loss
⢠Note any changes in bowel habits during periods or after specific foods
Management
You may continue probiotics and soluble fiber as supportive care. Avoid long-term use of anti-diarrheal medications unless advised by a doctor. Gentle home remedies like peppermint tea or warm water with ginger can sometimes reduce cramps and gas
When to Consult a Doctor Immediately
⢠Blood in stool or black stools
⢠Persistent high fever or severe abdominal pain
⢠Rapid weight loss or dehydration
Every patientâs situation is unique. For accurate diagnosis and lasting relief, it is important to discuss your medical history, diet, and symptoms in detail
