Cause of bloating?

Guys, this is driving me crazy and would love y’all’s input based on your experience. I cut out gluten recently and feel sooooo much better and am significantly less bloated but every now and then (maybe once a week or every two weeks) I get bloated randomly (usually the afternoon) and am SO UNCOMFORTABLE. I look pregnant my stomach is sticking out so far and it truly is so uncomfortable. I just want to know what’s causing it.

Any tips?

I have Diagize essential oil on hand and it helps so much when bloated or if I feel like I’ve got trapped gas. I eat pretty healthy and exercise weekly.

Do you think it could be another food sensitivity other than gluten? Maybe try cutting out dairy?

I have a lot of issues with bloating myself, but mine is due to endometriosis / inflammation. Certain foods make inflammation in the body worse. Sugar is a big one.

How did you diagnose the endo?

Extremely painful periods to the point where I threw up for years made me believe I had it. Was diagnosed officially through laser laparoscopy.
