Chronic indigestion and low appetite can have many different causes, so it is important to consult a doctor before taking any medicine. A healthcare professional can determine the right type of tablet or capsule, the correct dose, and duration based on your condition. In addition to medicines, simple lifestyle changes such as eating smaller, frequent meals, avoiding foods that worsen discomfort, staying hydrated, and managing stress can help improve digestion and stimulate appetite.
I'm feeling low on energy despite eating 3–4 meals daily, and have lost about 15 kg after a long course of antibiotics related to a new egg allergy. What should I do?

Feeling very tired and losing a lot of weight after a long course of antibiotics may be due to changes in your gut, poor nutrient absorption, or the impact of your new egg allergy on your diet. It is essential to see a doctor or gastroenterologist for tests to assess nutrient deficiencies, thyroid function, and overall gut health. Meanwhile, focus on eating a balanced, nutrient-rich diet with protein and vitamins from foods you can safely eat, and include fibre-rich foods to help your gut recover. Your doctor may also suggest probiotics or other ways to restore healthy gut bacteria. If fatigue or weight loss continues, further medical evaluation is needed.
Why do I feel full in my stomach, accompanied by indigestion and a vomiting-like sensation?

Feeling full in the stomach, along with indigestion and a vomiting-like sensation, can occur for several reasons, including overeating, eating too quickly, consuming fatty or spicy foods, or having digestive conditions such as acid reflux, gastritis, delayed stomach emptying, or infections. Stress, certain medications, or underlying medical issues like ulcers, gallbladder problems, or metabolic disorders can also contribute. These symptoms should not be ignored, so it is essential to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment. Meanwhile, eating smaller meals, avoiding trigger foods, and staying hydrated may help reduce discomfort.

Yes, metabolic disorders like diabetes, thyroid problems, obesity, or high cholesterol can lead to complete erectile dysfunction by affecting blood flow, nerves, or hormones. Managing the underlying condition with a healthy diet, regular exercise, and proper medical care can help. Depending on the situation, doctors may also suggest specific treatments for ED, such as medications or devices. It is essential to see a healthcare professional, such as a urologist, for an accurate diagnosis and a treatment plan.
