I am a way bloaty person, but if this has come on at all suddenly, you really need to get a gyn to look at you. Ovarian cancer will cause sudden bloating, and it's quite treatable if you catch it early (my friend who got the big O.C. at age 26 is now about to celebrate her 35th birthday!).

On the other hand, if you've had it for a while, I would definitely look into yoga and fennel tea. If a couple of weeks of that helps with the bloating, it's probably just IBS. (And if you're C, make sure you're getting enough insoluble fiber!)
