HELLO,
Your main problem is weak and unstable digestion, not an infection or a single organ disease. In Ayurveda, this condition is called Grahani Roga. -Grahani is the digestive systems control center Its job is: -To digest food properly -To absorb nutrients -To form normal stool
When digestion is strong → stool is normal → body gains strength When digestion is weak → stool becomes loose or irregular → gas, bloating, weakness, weight loss occur
Why Your Stool is Semi-Liquid but Only Once Daily Many people think loose stool means diarrhea, but this is different. -You pass stool once in the morning → intestine is not overactive -Stool is semi-liquid → food is not fully digested -Mucus → intestine is irritated and weak -Gas and bloating → food is fermenting instead of digesting This clearly points to poor digestion and absorption, not infection.
Why Gas and Bloating Are Constant -Because Digestive fire (Agni) is weak -Food stays longer inside intestine -Undigested food produces gas -Gas moves upward and sideways → bloating, discomfort This is called Vata disturbance in Ayurveda.
Why Weight Increased Earlier and Is Now Falling Again Earlier improvement: -Medicines like Livamrit, Arogyavardhini, Chitrakadi, Punarvadi Mandur • Improved digestion • Reduced toxins • Absorption improved • • -Result → weight increased from 60 → 75 kg Why problem returned: -Digestive fire did not become stable -Medicines were stopped too early -Later Kutaj was given (strong stool-binding medicine) • It hardened stool • Increased dryness (Vata) • Agni was still weak → imbalance worsened So problem is not failure of treatment, but incomplete healing of digestion
Main Causes in Your Case 1. Mandagni – weak digestion 2. Vishamagni – digestion works sometimes, fails sometimes 3. Vata dominance – gas, bloating, pain, weight loss 4. Ama (toxins) – due to undigested food
Disease Process Weak digestion → food not digested → toxins form → intestine weakens → stool becomes loose → gas increases → nutrients not absorbed → weakness & weight loss
Treatment Goals -Remove toxins (Ama) -Strengthen digestive fire (Agni) -Normalize movement of gas (Vata anulomana) -Gently stabilize stool -Restore strength and weight If stool is stopped without fixing digestion → problem returns again (as happened).

Hlo,
Your symptoms suggest a Grahani disorder with: Mandagni (weak digestive fire) Vata–Pitta dominance Poor absorption → gas, bloating, semi-liquid stool, weight loss, fatigue
Kutaj made stool hard because it over-controlled Pitta and aggravated Vata, so it was not suitable for long-term use in your case.
Ayurveda Prescription (mild & balanced) 1. Hingvashtak Churna Dose: ½ tsp How: With warm water Timing: 15 minutes before lunch and dinner Purpose: Reduces gas, bloating, improves digestion
2. Bilva Avaleha Dose: 1 tsp How: After breakfast Purpose: Firms stool without causing constipation, strengthens Grahani
3. Takra (Buttermilk) Therapy – Very Important Fresh buttermilk (not sour) Add: Roasted jeera powder – ¼ tsp Hing – a pinch Timing: After lunch daily Purpose: Best classical treatment for Grahani
4. Ashwagandha Churna Dose: ½ tsp How: With warm water or milk Timing: At night Purpose: Helps weight loss, fatigue, weakness, foot pain

Your digestive system shows a chronic pattern of vata pitta imbalance with ama formation and weak agni The temporary improvement in 2022 with livamrit arogyavardhini chitrakadi vati and punarvadi mandur shows that supporting liver and agni along with rasayana therapy can improve metabolism and weight gain However changes with kutaj leading to hard stool and stopping medication have led to recurrence Semi liquid stool bloating excessive gas fatigue and weakness indicate persistent ama and mandagni with vata kapha imbalance affecting absorption and overall strength
For current management triphala churna 5 grams with warm water at night helps regulate bowel movement and reduce mucus Hingvashtak churna 2 grams after lunch and dinner reduces gas and bloating Sitopaladi churna 3 grams with warm milk morning and night improves digestion and nourishes ojas Punarvadi mandur 250 mg two tablets twice daily after food strengthens liver and metabolism Continue warm cooked meals avoid cold drinks raw food heavy oily fried items and sugar Adequate hydration light exercise and proper sleep will support digestion and gradually improve stool consistency strength and overall vitality
