What Is The Treatment For Bloating In The Abdomen?
i had sex with my long term bf tues, i was fine. wed i did and from my cried you would have thought someone was trying to hurt me. i went to the doctors the next day and had a preg test (neg), sonogram (inside and out), no blood work because i couldnt afford that too with all the rest. they didnt see a mass (thought maybe a ectopic preg) but saw some fluid (think ruptured cyst). the dr. is still calling me to check up and is really pushing me for blood work. my pain is less. i have EXTREME bloating with gas bubbles. i had a light light, early period before this, and now i have brown discharge. is from period or rupture? any ideas whats up. how come dr. doesnt know after those tests?

Hi. Understood your history.
This is definitely suggestive of pelvic inflammatory disease and the cause may be anything ranging from a ruptured ovarian follicle to any inflammatory process. This can cause the severe pain die to irritation it causes to the very sensitive peritoneum.
Since your pain has reduced no need to worry much. The extreme bloating with gas bubbles is reactionary to any inflammation in the abdomen / pelvis.
The bleeding could also be reactionary or a normal period.
Take the medicines as advised, take full bed rest, drink plenty of oral fluids. stop solid food for a day or two and you may be fine.
IF there is not much relief, you can then go for further tests for a proper diagnosis and treatment .
