What Causes Abnormal Large Stomach Size?

Hello Dr. Iam a 25 years old Female, I have abnormally large stomach since childhood which is visibily protuding out. From my 1-18th birthday I have spent majority of days vomitting, complaining of indigestion, bloating. Now Iam 25yrs old & unmarried and though I dont complain of vomitting that frequently now, the extremely large size of my belly has made me socially unacceptable as people think Iam 9 months pregnant. Please suggest the causes, tests and remedies of my condition.
