What Causes Painful And Chronic Diarrhea?
I am 19. 5 3 and 120 lbs. Every month, once a month for an hour I get severely painful diarrhea. This pain is so bad that I can barely move, and I cannot go through it again. My doctors are convinced it s endometriosis, though we have no proof. I m convinced it may be something else, but I have no idea as to what. I am lactose intolerant, so I avoid dairy. I ve been the same height and weight for 4+ years. I have no other issues besides gastrointestinal.

Hello,
I suggest such patients to get the evaluation Workup done, such as:
1) Lactose intolerance test
2) I also suggest getting an ultra sound whole abdomen to rule out Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and consult a physician with the reports.
Till that time, I Suggest to take Prebiotic & Probiotics (Capsule LEEBIOTIC 3 times daily).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Abdullah
