What Do Tenderness And Bloating In The Abdomen Indicate?

My abdomen feels heavy and slightly tender to touch off and on for several months. I had thought it was related to my periods, because it had bothered me quite abit several months ago and it got better after I started my period. I am 45 years old, and this past year my periods have slowed down significantly. I have been getting hot flashes and night sweatshop about 2 weeks. I was thinking it is menopause symptoms, but I am concerned that it could be something more serious.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Yes, you are right.
All these symptoms are due to menopause.
During Menopausal period, women go through a lot of hormonal changes.
These changes give various symptoms like hot flashes, mood swings, GI symptoms (gastritis, bloating, nausea, diarr, constipation), dry skin, depression etc.
So no need to worry much.
Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm. Think positive. Drink plenty of fluids orally. Start multivitamin and calcium tablet.
Also take pantoprazole and levosulperide combination on empty stomach twice daily. Avoid hot and spicy food. Avoid junk food.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
