| I exercise 5 times a week for 1 - 2 hours at a time. After Thanksgiving I noticed my waistline slightly larger. In the past week my stomach seems quite bloated and fat. I really don't think I'm pregnant, I'm two weeks into my cycle. Someone asked me if I was pregnant. Any idea what the enlarged tummy may be from? |

Unless it's weight gain, you should get it checked out. It could be benign, or it could be very serious. Sorry to say something scary, but this is what my mother experienced and it wasn't good:

| Thanks for the response. Time to visit the dr. |
| Not to pile on the terror, but yeah - definitely get it checked out. Could be a million things, but one of the early symptoms of ovarian cancer is bloating/fullness. |
| I used to get bloated A LOT, turned out to be a soy allergy. |
| Echo the get it checked. Could be IBS, could be female "stuff,"....better to get it checked. Any other symptoms? |
