Your current approach of reducing water intake from 4 liters to 2 liters daily is appropriate. Excessive water intake can actually be counterproductive. Here's why:
Over-hydration can disrupt your body's natural balance
2 liters (8 glasses) of water per day is generally sufficient for most people
Water needs vary based on climate, physical activity, and overall health
Health Tips
Medical Evaluation: Since this is a recurring issue, you should consult a gastroenterologist for proper evaluation.

Fever
Excessive weakness
Large amounts of blood in stool
Severe abdominal pain
