• Repeated feelings of nausea and retching do not necessarily indicate an autonomic nervous system disorder.
• Causes vary widely and may include gastroenteritis, reflux esophagitis, medication side effects, migraines, pregnancy, and ear disorders. If you experience weight loss, repeated vomiting, vomiting blood, black stools, severe abdominal pain, dehydration, or new neurological symptoms, prompt medical evaluation is essential.
• Some people experience an upset stomach when they wake up in the morning, feel the urge to retch before important events, and postpone meals because even a small amount of food makes them feel nauseous.

[Endometrial Adhesions] If Your Menstrual Flow Has Decreased and You’re Having Trouble Getting Pregnant, Here’s What to Check First

• Endometrial adhesions refer to a condition in which the inner walls of the uterus stick together, which can affect the shape of the uterine cavity or the flow of menstrual blood.
• If your menstrual flow has noticeably decreased or stopped following a D&C after a miscarriage, uterine surgery, or an intrauterine infection, or if you are experiencing recurrent miscarriages or difficulty conceiving, you should consult an OB/GYN to determine whether an evaluation of the uterine cavity is necessary.
• It can be concerning if your menstrual flow decreases significantly compared to before after a miscarriage or childbirth, or if you experience lower abdominal pain around your expected period but have almost no bleeding.

[Digestive System] Check for post-meal heaviness, abdominal bloating, and gastrointestinal motility

• Ulsan During consultations for indigestion and abdominal bloating, we determine why symptoms such as a heavy feeling after meals, a sensation of fullness in the upper abdomen, belching, heartburn, and a feeling of gas in the abdomen recur.
• Even if an endoscopy reveals no major abnormalities, factors such as gastrointestinal motility, eating speed, stress, sleep, and autonomic nervous system tension can all play a role, so it is important to consider both your daily routine and your physical condition.
• There are people who feel bloated even though they haven’t eaten much, experience a sensation of fullness and discomfort in the upper abdomen after eating even a small amount, and only feel relief after burping.

[Digestive System] Endoscopy Shows Normal Results, but a Severe Blockage in the Epigastric Region—Could the Cause Be “Dajeokbyeong,” a Condition Where the Stomach Harden?

• Ulsan Typical cases requiring consultation for “Damjeok” include situations where, despite being told that an endoscopy showed normal results, patients experience persistent tightness in the epigastric region, bloating even after eating only a small amount, and recurring discomfort such as belching, nausea, and a sensation of chest tightness.
• Ulsan The term “damjeokbyeong” is frequently used during consultations at Korean medicine clinic to describe a sensation of tightness in the epigastric region, a vague feeling of bloating that is difficult to pinpoint, and symptoms that are mild in the morning on an empty stomach but worsen after eating.
• Even if a condition cannot be neatly categorized under a single, precise diagnosis in modern medicine, it is still very meaningful to examine recurring patterns in one’s daily life.

[Gastroenterology] If you’ve lost your appetite and lost weight, you need to identify the cause and work on restoring your digestion at the same time

• In particular, if you are losing weight unintentionally or your food intake continues to decrease, it is better to identify the cause and develop a recovery plan together rather than simply dismissing it as a general decline in health.
• A loss of appetite can happen to anyone.
• During periods of a busy schedule, lack of sleep, feeling under the weather after a cold, or high stress, you may lose your appetite for a few days before it naturally returns.
