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

As per your description, it seems to be related to GI tract only and not ovaries for now. Please put yourself on very light diet like khichdi(an Indian dish made of rice and lentils) and simple chickpeas, chappati( flat bread). Increase your fluid intake. Also this long use of Buscopan is not recommended since it may cause you to have constipation that will further add to the discomfort. So, use it till you see a doctor for further check-up. Before seeing a doctor, try the remedies like Pudin Hara drops(8-10 drops two times a day in half glass of water). To relieve the bloated feeling, use Simethicone drops.
Also completely exclude diary products, Sugar substitutes, Fried or fatty foods and Carbonated beverages from the diet for some days.
In case, you does not feel the comfort, please see a physician who may prescribe antibiotics after check up and lab tests.

Hoping for your good health.
Thanks.
