I cannot figure out which of the many probiotics this company makes is the one you are taking. I need more details. However, looking at the ingredients of some of the Genestra probiotics I see listed "Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS)" in some of them. If your probiotic contains this ingredient is could be causing the problem you described.
