What Causes Green Stools?

Hi, I have been having green stool for about three weeks now. It started when I was on antibiotics so I thought it was a side effect of the medicine. However, I am two weeks late and counting for my period and over the counter pregnancy test is negative. Any ideas?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It could be diarrhea due to antibiotic only and passing stool 3 to 4 times in a day could be normal. Still you can try the probiotic and for safe side try tab Metronidazole.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
