Understanding Root Causes of Bloating

Bloating is often a sign of underlying digestive imbalances. Many women have new onset bloating or a marked increase in bloating during perimenopause and menopause years due to the impact on the gut. At Sayana Medical, we investigate multiple factors that can contribute to chronic bloating:

  • Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)
  • Food sensitivities and intolerances
  • Gut microbiome imbalances
  • Enzyme deficiencies
  • Hormone imbalances such as excess estrogen
  • Stress and nervous system dysfunction

Beyond Simple Solutions

While dietary changes can help, chronic bloating often requires a deeper investigation. Our functional medicine approach examines the complex interactions between your digestive system, microbiome, hormones, and lifestyle factors.

Our Comprehensive Approach

  • Comprehensive digestive analysis
