How do you know what caused GP? My doctor didn’t tell me...

It can be the result of nerve damage from Diabetes or idiopathic/autonomic which may not have a specific trigger or cause.

Any surgeries on the abdomen. I don't have my gallbladder and that is what caused my GP and then at the end of March of 2022, I had my appendix removed(emergency surgery) and that has made my GP 10X worse than what it was before

Although I wasn't diagnosed til nov 2021 I have had mild gp for as long as I can remember

For some people it is idiopathic

Mine is from having covid

i abused laxatives when i had bulimia which caused it. regret it every day🤷🏼‍♀️

I had my gallbladder removed 2 years ago and then 6 months later, I got diagnosed with GP and just 1.5 months ago, I had my appendix removed

Sometimes you can’t find the real cause. I have idiopathic GP as well, I have yet to figure out a cause for this. My doctor thinks stress brought it on but who knows. It can be because of other medical issues, surgeries, diabetes, stress, there’s a lot of reasons/causes

Mine is because of a concussion

Mine is from Lyme disease

It can be caused by ibuprofen od or psych meds too
