Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I have been having green stool for about three weeks now. It started when I was on antibiotics so I thought it was a side effect of the medicine. However, I am two weeks late and counting for my period and over the counter pregnancy test is negative. Any ideas?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It could be diarrhea due to antibiotic only and passing stool 3 to 4 times in a day could be normal. Still you can try the probiotic and for safe side try tab Metronidazole.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Akhtarhusain
