How To Reduce Bloating?

I am meant to be on 25mg Cyproterone Acitate but am currently on 12.5 due to pharmacy mix up. Been on 25mg for over a year. Suddenly feel more bloated and like I've gained weight. Could this be related to the sudden drop in Cipla? (I only take for 10 days at beginning of cycle with the pill-for PCOS)

dear cyproterone acetate may cause increase in bowel movements and loose stools.less number of people may cause bloating.just check have you recently changed diet habits??have you developed gastritis?? causes for bloating most commonly NSAIDS, gastritis, irritable bowels, food intolerance, malobsorption syndromes etc..

you already having above drug but recently your getting bloating may be due to some other possibility??avoid spicy food and alcohol, avoid alcohol and smoking.avoid dairy products.use tab.simethicone 140mg twice a day for five days,if symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
