Gastric problems and severe pain, even with proper hydration practices like drinking water after meals, could indicate an imbalance in Pitta dosha or underlying digestive issues such as hyperacidity, gastritis, or irregular eating habits. Excessive stress, spicy and oily foods, irregular meal timings, or consuming heavy, hard-to-digest meals could aggravate this condition. In Ayurveda, improper Agni (digestive fire) is often the root cause of such issues.
To address this, you can incorporate Amlapittari Vati or Avipattikar Churna to help balance Pitta and reduce acidity. Avoid foods that are spicy, fried, or overly acidic, and focus on light, easily digestible meals. Eating at regular intervals, chewing food thoroughly, and managing stress through practices like Pranayama and meditation can also help. Consider consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner to further explore personalized treatments such as Panchakarma therapies like Virechana (therapeutic purgation) for deep detoxification and balancing digestive health.

Your gastric issues and monthly severe pain could be due to an imbalance in digestion and certain lifestyle factors. In Ayurveda, excess gas and bloating can arise from weak Agni (digestive fire), which may be influenced by diet, stress, or certain habits. Drinking water an hour after meals is good for digestion, but it’s also essential to address underlying digestive patterns and practices.
Dietary Adjustments: Favor warm, cooked foods and avoid overly spicy, oily, or cold foods, as these can disrupt digestion and lead to gas buildup. Eating at regular times and avoiding overeating can further support balanced digestion. You might benefit from incorporating ajwain (carom seeds) and jeera (cumin) in meals, which help reduce gas and improve digestive health. Taking hingvastak churna with warm water after meals may also provide relief from bloating and support digestion.
Herbal Remedies: Ayurvedic herbs like Triphala, taken in warm water at bedtime, support regular bowel movements and detoxify the digestive tract. Avipattikar churna is another recommended remedy, particularly if acidity is involved, as it soothes gastric irritation and improves digestion.
Lifestyle Practices: Avoid lying down immediately after meals and engage in mild physical activity, like a short walk, to encourage digestion. Yoga poses like Pavanamuktasana (wind-relieving pose) can help release trapped gas and ease discomfort. Managing stress is also key, as stress can disturb digestion; meditation or Pranayama breathing exercises can be beneficial.
Hydration and Meal Timing: Besides delaying water intake post-meals, ensure you’re well-hydrated throughout the day but avoid excessive water intake close to meals, as it can dilute digestive enzymes.

Hey, dealing with gastric issues can be kinda frustrating, so I totally get why you're looking for answers here. Now, there's couple of things in Ayurveda that might help us figure out what's going on with your system.
First off, have you considered your dosha type? If your Vata or Pitta dosha is outta balance, it could totally be messing with your agni, aka. digestive fire. When the agni is weak or irregular, your system struggles to properly digest food, leading to that uncomfortable gas and the pain you're experiencin'.
Drinking water an hour after meals is generally a good habit, but sometimes what you're eating matters more. Foods that are too spicy, oily, or dry might aggravate your Pitta and Vata, triggering gas. How about trying to eat more warming, grounding foods? Think less fried, more steamed or cooked options. Also, go easy on those raw veggies, they can be a bit too harsh on a sensitive stomach.
Herbs like ginger and fennel can also do wonders. You might wanna start your day with some warm water with ginger, and chew some fennel seeds after meals to aid digestion.
Timing and portion play a part too. Smaller, more frequent meals might be easier on your stomach than larger ones. Plus, stress and irregular sleep can also exacerbate these issues. Have you been feelin' stressed or maybe not catchin' enough sleep lately?
If the pain is really severe, though, it's super important not to wait on this. You might wanna get a check-up from a professional to rule out any underlying conditions that might need immediate attention. Ayurveda is fantastic, but sometimes our body needs a mix of approaches.
Remember, this is a journey towards balancing your doshas and strengthening your agni. So change things slow, listen to your body, and hopefully, you'll feel more at ease soon.
