Patient questioning

Doctor hello, my female, 32 years old, has always had irregular stool for the past six months. Some time ago, she also had an examination (with photos of colonoscopy report). At that time, the doctor said that intestinal flora was out of balance. After taking medicine, stool was normal for several days but it was the same as before (with photos of drugs). May I ask this is the what situation? What should I do?

Hello.

First of all, I would like to ask you not to worry, because normal stool itself is fickle.

Defecation is actually a very individualized physiological process, just like our faces, which is very different, and so many factors will affect defecation, such as intestinal anatomy, digestive ability, food structure, intestinal flora, emotional psychology, etc.

Therefore, different people have different defecation habits and the appearance of defecation may be very different.

For individuals, on the premise that there is no big change in diet structure and habits, the regular change of stool is also very slow.

However, there will be some diseases that will cause great changes in defecation through the influence of the above factors. Therefore, when there are obvious changes in the frequency and morphology of defecation in a short period of time, it is necessary to carry out exclusion examination.

For your current situation, women of non-dangerous age are only slightly changed (only pasty stool, not very shaped), which has no effect on the quality of life. It does not belong to the category that needs to be excluded from examination. It is good to directly think that normal stool changes with physiological differences are good, and there is no need to worry too much.

As for flora imbalance, judging from the current situation, it is still not up to the diagnostic standard, so what you have to do is to shift your attention to another place, which can be completely turned over.

Constipation, diarrhea, indigestion?

Stomach pain, distension, hiccups, stomach discomfort?

Any gastrointestinal problems
