The bacteria Helicobacter Pylori is another risk factor and at the same time the main reason for stomach cancer.

Liver disease is not dangerous and most of the times is benign, but it can cause the cancer cells to spread from it to the other organs.

Vaginal bleeding or blood in your stool – If women experience bleeding between periods or after the menopause, they should pay special attention since that can be associated with bloating. However most of the time this is not associated with the most dangerous illnesses but it is most probably a case of hemorrhoids, irregular menstrual cycle, fibroids or endometrial atrophy.

Fever – If the bloating is accompanied with fever, than that is a sign of inflammation or infection. You should check your blood and if the number of white blood cells got bigger, pelvic, urinary or gastrointestinal infection should be excluded.
