I have been constantly bloated for the past few weeks to the point where I look pregnant. I've been having terrible lower back pains and headaches for the past few weeks as well. Any ideas what it could be?

Heres a picture of my stomach:

Hi, how old are you? Do you have any additional symptoms like heavy bleeding or painful periods, urinating often, pain during sex, bleeding between periods, feeling of fullness in the lower abdomen, etc?

Your symptoms sounds like uterine fibroids, they are likely to make women look pregnant and have lower back pain. Fibroids appear in women who are of child bearing age and older.

I would suggest you saw a gynecologist and start from there to see what's happening. Fibroids are benign growths but annoying and could cause a lot of trouble through these irritable symptoms.

They should be removed!

Some day's my belly is so bloated that i look like im about 4 months pregnat. What could this be? could it be the same thing your having trouble with?
