The main cause of bloating is gas, fluid retention, irritable bowel disease, food intolerance, menstrual symptoms, infections and others. Many things can be done such as drinking water, eat banana, choose veggies wisely, and don’t have dinner late. Also Greek yogurt is very beneficial. Thank you.
Try eating Greek yogurt and drink water. If still an issue, see a gastroenterologist.

Bloating, especially after eating, is often caused by carbohydrate malabsorption. Reducing carbs in the diet usually helps. Try the low FODMAP diet.
