What Causes Belching With Metallic Taste In Mouth?
What could cause me to taste blood when I burp? I ve noticed it only happens when I m menstruating. I ve asked my doctor in the past about the possibility that I have endometriosis but they dismissed it. I m not entirely convinced I don t have it, though. My cramps are severe and are present in my back and my legs down to my knees. The pain is only present the day I start bleeding. After that it subsides to mere discomfort. My flow is only heavy on the second and third day. On those days I typically go through 4-6 super-absorbancy tampons each day. Is it possible that it is, in fact, endometriosis and that s what s causing the bloody taste in my mouth?
There are many reasons for metallic taste in mouth like poor oral hygiene , infection in oral cavity , side effect of any drug , hormonal changes and excess vitamins and minerals . I would suggest you to consult doctor to find out the exact cause . Also consult gynecologist for proper diagnosis of your bleeding problem . For now suck on sugar free mint candy , do warm saline rinses and maintain proper oral hygiene . Avoid eating heavy and spicy food specially at night because one can also experience metallic taste due to acidic reflux.
Hope your concern has been resolved. Dr. Harry Maheshwari
