Yellow Stool

Hello,

I'm soon to have my lap and so have not yet had Endo confirmed. New symptoms keep cropping up, and the latest is strange textured and coloured poo. My stools have been loose and pale, sort of yellow, for about 2 weeks now. Do other people get this - is it something that comes with endo?

It's a yellow colour all the time, never brown.

Other symtoms: painful heavy clotty periods, sharp pains before bm, frequent urination, very disruptive fatigue, constipation/incomplete emptying, weak bladder, and I have a 9cm ovarian cyst.

Something feels very wrong with my digestion and my energy levels are really low. I'm eating loads of fruit and veg, have cut out coffee, alcohol, red meat, gluten and dairy from my diet.

Please let me know if you've had this or know what it could be!

Hi there! So I had/have stage 4 endo. I had that laparoscopy and it was amazing. Now symptoms are coming back a year and half later unfortunately. I absolutely have the yellow stool too, always, and have mentioned it to 10 different docs in different specialities. The same answer I always get is : "The color isn't concerning me." I don't know how as it concerns ME. I would deduce it is from the inflammation and does change digestion/absorption of nutrients. I hope this helps! If you uave any questions, please feel free to reach out!
