HelloPooing 4 times a day is quite reasonable for me.
But I was given buscopan to slow down my guts for my mri. Maybe that's something to ask your Dr for? I'm sure it says online not to buy it without advice from your GP first, as it can cause obstructions 🤔
Had that problem before I switched to gluten free diet. It's not rare for women with endo to have food intolerances/sensitivities/allergies. Even celiac disease is more common. It is difficult to impossible to find out on your own.
I have magnesium tablets in the kitchen drawer took 2 then forgot. I know changing my diet would be ideal. I just don't know where to start. My husband is a farmer. My kids are 3 and baby weaning age. Not got capacity to plan what I eat right now. Shall I just try to eat less gluten? I tried some gluten free products a few months ago and thought they were awful
Then it is not the magnesium. Still leaves you with many possible causes including endo. I don't think reducing wheat or gluten is helpful if one is the reason for your problems. It would be like having peanut allergy and eating one every day.
In an ideal world we would have much better access to diagnostics and nutritionists amongst other helpful things. This isn't your fault. You do everything you can to improve the quality of your life. But you need help. I would probably try to get tests for fructose and lactose intolerance first. There's also histamine intolerance, wheat sensitivity, wheat allergy, gluten sensitivity, gluten intolerance, food allergies and so on... It's like looking for the needle in a haystack without a doctor.
