Will Probiotics Stop Formation Of Gases In My Stomach?

I have celiac & many allergies to herbs & foods, am on a strict gluten free diet. I need a solution to excessive gas, I ve tried so many things & have eliminated many foods but it doesn t help. Would probiotics stop the gassiness & if so, what kinds & how much? I m also in a perimenopause state & will be taking the most natural hormonal replacements as possible. .
