Vitamin .... Prenatal and gas/tummy issues?

I'm not pregnant but my friend/nutritionist suggested I tale prenatals to combat some hair loss I've encountered recently. With my pregnancies I couldn't take these bc they .... Well let's just say there were issues. But do they cause gas? Severe bloating and ever unmoving gas. Short of havin someone jump up and down on my tummy, no relief. Is this just coincidental timing or a predictive response to this vitamin? Please help... I've recently lost weight and am down to a size 2 but am still able to wear my size 6 %26amp; 8's bc of this bloating.Vitamin .... Prenatal and gas/tummy issues?
When you first start taking vitamins with iron in them your stools will tend to harden until your body adjusts. It won't take long for your body to adjust though. In the mean time you will probably have some constipation, which leads to the gas being trapped and you feeling gas pains and discomfort.





Since you aren't pregnant, consider a laxative or just a high fiber diet to keep things moving while your body gets used to the iron.Vitamin .... Prenatal and gas/tummy issues?
Maybe it's the vitamins, but it sounds like how I feel when I drink milk. I developed lactose intolerance when I was about 25, and it sounds exactly like what you are describing.
