Lower Abdominal Pain, Pelvic Area Pain, Irregular BM, Irregular Period And Bloated. What Is Going On?

I have been having pain in my lower abdomen for a few months now. most of the pain is in the left side of my pelvis and my stomach becomes extremely bloated. I do not have regular bowl movements and my periods are very heavy and irregular. The pain is so intense sometimes it is hard to even walk. I had a tubal three years ago and have expierenced some pain ever since.

Hello

Thanks for query

For your problem of pain in pelvic area,you need to go for abdominal ultrasound. It can detect the cause for pain in pelvis. Also it can give clue for heavy and irregular bleeding. You didn't mentioned your age. Differential diagnosis varies with age.
For problem of bloated abdomen ,first you can use proton pump inhibitors like pantoprazole. Chances of gall bladder calculus are more in females and it leads to similar symptoms .It will also be detected in ultrasound.
For irregular bowel movement, you should take more fibrous diet.
you shouldn't worry more for history of tubal as it doesn't cause pain for such long time.
certainly you needs to be consulted by gynecologist.

Take care
