What's wrong with my stomach? /:
A couple months ago, my stomach began growling out of nowhere. I figured I was just hungry, so I kept eating, but even after I ate, my stomach would keep growling.
I had a normal eating schedule every day but ever since then, I've been eating WAY more than I have. My stomach always growls and if it doesn't, then my stomach feels like it's empty. I'm not hungry sometimes but it'll tell me otherwise.
I've been getting a lot more gas since then, too, and it's really embarrassing being around people and being hungry all the time.
Even while I eat, my stomach growls and reacts strongly. It never hurts, it's just always empty or hungry.
I've been a vegetarian (but I eat fish) for 6 years, and nothing has been a problem since a couple weeks ago so I don't think it's the no-meat problem since my body is already used to that.
I'm 16, 5'2", and 105 lbs.

The best advice any of us on this website can give you is to see a doctor. None of us are doctors and should not and cannot be offering medical advice.
For a stomach to growl every once and a while can be perfectly normal. For your stomach to growl and feel empty even after you have eaten does not sound normal and to continue unabated for this long tells me you need to check in with your doctor.
There may or may not be anything wrong, only your doctor can say for sure once he or she has examined you.

Id recommend a check up with your doctor just to make sure things are okay physically.
I am constantly hungry when i havent exercised in a while so maybe it could be similar? Gie it a go and start up a regular exercise routine.
It could also mean youre deficient in nutrients. So make sure youre getting everything you need from your diet.
Otherwise you could try eating six small meals - little and often - instead of three larger ones. Make sure you have enough protein, fibre and good carbs to keep you fuller for longer.
