What Causes Bloating And Fluttering In Stomach Along With Weight Gain?

Hi have had for the past couple of months a small lump on pelvis. It was there a year ago but went after a month or so. Since then another has appeared just under were the old one was. Also tummy is constantly bloated. Fluttering like felling like when I first felt my baby move and have been lightly bleeding in and off all month. I have also had extreme weight gains with no change in my diet or excise routine. Tummy does feel to each side very hard but put that down to the swelling. I do a pregnancy test every month and have done three all negative.

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

As per my clinical experience, the bloating and fluttering in stomach with weight gain of substantial amount indicate issue with metabolic disorder likely secondary to hormone imbalance. The most common cause can be among
- Hypothyroidism
- Diabetes mellitus
- Insulin resistance
- Polycystic ovarian syndrome (Steil Leventhal syndrome)
- Others

A systemic review of all systems and supportive lab reports and an ultrasound of the abdomen and pelvis will reveal much of the details for the possible cause and management guidelines accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
