Does h pylori causes weight loss?

I went to a specialist at Max Hospital for my H. pylori treatment because I was losing weight rapidly. They ran a few blood and stool tests and gave me a clear protocol. I suggest you ask your doctor clearly about diet changes during the treatment instead of trying things yourself.

Haan, weight loss toh ho jata hai copybook style mein kyunki khana hajam hi nahi hota na. Stomach humesha bhara-bhara lagta hai aur khane ka mann hi nahi karta. Apne doctor ko dikhao jaldi aur treatment shuru karo, sab thik ho jayega.

Yes, it causes weight loss because of poor absorption of food and loss of appetite. While you recover on antibiotics, try doing light 15-minute walks daily if your doctor says it is fine. It helps with digestion and keeps your mood positive while you gain your strength back.

Don't stress too much, dear! It is very common to lose some weight when you have H. pylori because of bloating and eating less. Once the infection is cleared with proper meds, your appetite will come back and you will feel healthy again. Just take care of yourself!

Yes, weight loss happens because the stomach lining gets inflamed and cannot digest food properly. I had to stick to a very clean vegetarian diet with soft khichdi and boiled vegetables during my treatment. Avoid raw salads or heavy pulses as they can irritate the stomach more right now.

It can make you very weak and thin because the body does not get any nourishment. I used to drink warm water with a little honey to soothe my throat and stomach, but please go see a doctor first. If the weight loss is sudden and severe, you need proper medical tests.
