Avoid spicy oily food take probiotics and start medication for loose stools

Since symptoms are persisting for 3 months, evaluation by a gastroenterologist is advisable. Useful next tests may include: * CBC, CRP/ESR * TSH * Celiac serology (tTG-IgA with total IgA) * Stool culture if not already done * Colonoscopy if red-flag symptoms are present or symptoms persist

* Avoid dairy, oily/spicy foods, artificial sweeteners * Try a low-FODMAP style diet briefly * Maintain hydration * Probiotics and soluble fiber (ispaghula) may help in IBS-D cases

The Low-FODMAP Approach: "Try a 'Low-FODMAP' diet for 2 weeks. This involves temporarily avoiding certain carbohydrates (like wheat, onions, and certain fruits) that often trigger fermentation and loose stools in sensitive individuals." ​Probiotic Trial: "A high-quality multi-strain probiotic can help restore the balance of your gut microbiome, which may have been disrupted over the last 3 months." ​Stress Management: "Chronic gut issues are often linked to stress. Mindful breathing or light yoga can help calm the 'gut-brain axis' and reduce abdominal pain." ​Caution: "Do NOT self-medicate with long-term antibiotics for the loose stools, as this can worsen the underlying microbiome imbalance and potentially increase fatty liver stress." ​Red Flags: "If you notice sudden weight loss, blood in your stool, or if the abdominal pain becomes sharp and localized, seek a physical examination immediately."

When basic tests are normal, the answer usually lies in functional triggers or the gut microbiome. Please book a full session so we can dive deeper into your diet and metabolic history
