                                            Probiotics also can cause bloating and discomfort.
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thank you for asking Health care magic forum.
I have gone through your query. Probiotics can cause bloating, abdominal discomfort and diarrhea in some people. Anabolic steroid also causes gastrointestinal upset in some.
Liver function tests should be assessed as anabolic steroids can cause altered liver function and associated gastric upset also.
You can stop anabolic steroids initially and see whether your condition improves. But if that is not the condition then it can be most likely due to probiotics. In such case a short course antibiotic therapy will help you.
You can use yogurt which will give you essential probiotics and better avoid the capsules. In case of upper gastric discomfort like nausea or heart burn a short course proton pump inhibitors like pantoperazole will be helpful also.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
