I've noticed that my stomach has gotten and looks physically bigger but my weight has been stable over a couple of days. what could it be?

Could be anything: This could be a result of many different things. This will occur with some women during menses. This could also be a result of retained stool as a result of constipation. If you begin to develop abdominal pain seek care from a Doctor
