Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Sometimes endometriosis can cause formation of endometrial cyst or chocolate cyst.
For more details :http://srsree.blogspot.in/2012/08/chocolate-cyst-or-endometrioma.html
In case of larger cysts, symptoms like pain abdomen, distention of abdomen, bloating sensation etc can be seen.
Generally removal of gallbladder may not affect the gastrointestinal function.
If the symptoms persist, once consult gynecologist, get examined.
And go for ultrasound with her advice.
Ultrasound will help in ruling out presence of any ovarian cysts or other pathology.
According to the findings treatment can be planned.
If no abnormality detected, antacids can help in relieving the symptoms.
Take care.
I find this answer helpful
