Given your age and what you have shared - it is most likely chronic gastritis as seen on your endoscopy as well. You must change your eating habits and patterns along with using a course of medications and ulcer protectants. We definitely need to evaluate you more as it is most likely your eating habits - like spicy food consumption, caffeine, eating at odd hours , etc that is causing your discomfort.
Next Steps
Get a consult and use a course of acid reducing medications and change diet to bland and timely

Your endoscopy shows no major abnormality apart from the reported gastritis, and H. pylori treatment should be taken as prescribed by your treating doctor. H. pylori eradication is important because untreated infection can cause persistent dyspepsia and increase the risk of peptic ulcer disease. Mild abdominal discomfort, nausea or loose stools can occur with antibiotics, but treatment should not be stopped without discussing it with your doctor. For the upper abdominal pain, avoid NSAID painkillers unless prescribed, limit alcohol, smoking, very spicy/oily foods, and take smaller meals. If pain persists despite treatment or you develop vomiting, black stools, blood in vomit, severe/worsening pain or weight loss, seek medical evaluation promptly.

Upper abdomen dull ache for 5 months with endoscopy showing gastritis and H. pylori - this can cause pain, indigestion and bloating. H. pylori treatment is usually 14 days, not 1 month - discuss the duration and expected side effects like nausea/taste change with your doctor. Probiotic for 10 days is supportive.
The ache after poop suggests gut sensitivity also. Avoid long gaps, spicy/oily, tea/coffee, smoking. Eat small frequent meals.
For a diet plan that reduces pain and helps you tolerate the H. pylori course better, you can consult me on Practo with your endoscopy report.

Pain after poop is supposedly because of the pressure that you actively apply to poop. Add fibre and drink more water to soften poop. You can include soaked chia seeds they are good for digestion and do not affect the gastritis.
Next Steps
For pain relief urgently take a paracetamol 500 mg after food. On the other hand, also go ahead with the treatment for h pylori, it is necessary for treatment of your gastritis and stomach ache.
Health Tips
Avoid spicy food entirely, start walking after meals for 30 mins, do not lie down after eating for 2-3 hours, avoid coffee tea. Drink more water. For further counselling connect on Practo app.

Your symptoms fit gastritis related to H. pylori, but 5 months of pain needs the complete eradication regimen prescribed by your doctor.
Take every dose as advised; probiotics may reduce antibiotic-related loose stools but do not treat H. pylori.
Avoid painkillers like ibuprofen, alcohol, smoking, excess tea/coffee and spicy or oily meals.
If pain continues after treatment, please book a Practo consult or visit me at Synergy Multispeciality Hospital, Miraj for review of your endoscopy and response.

Your endoscopy shows antral gastritis, and your mildly elevated blood marker (anti-tTG) along with post-bowel ache suggests a sensitive digestive tract or possible gluten sensitivity alongside H. pylori.
Next Steps
Please book a consultation with me along with your biopsy and RUT reports.so, we can start the correct targeted treatment safely.
Health Tips
Probiotics can help settle your gut temporarily, but definitive relief requires reviewing the biopsy results to confirm celiac disease and properly timing your standard 14-day H. pylori eradication therapy.

Your endoscopy report shows mild redness in the stomach lining, with the biopsy and rapid urease test still pending to confirm H. pylori and rule out celiac disease.
Next Steps
Please discuss these pending results with your gastroenterologist before starting any prolonged medicine course, since the exact diagnosis isn't finalized yet.

Smaller, frequent meals and avoiding spicy or acidic food can ease the discomfort while you wait for the reports.
