Hi,

Ive been tested positive for h pylori. I had some mild symptoms for 1 months and ive lost a lot weight since then.

Sometimes i dont have much appetite but i forced my self to eat so the intake didnt change.

My other symptoms are :

Acid stomach, freq urination, mushy stool sometimes with undigested food, occastionally bloating.

My q is can h pylori cause weight loss even u eat normally?

Im getting so anxious and nervous.

H. pylori does not directly cause weight loss. But H. pylori may cause stomach discomfort and perhaps, reduce the patient's appetite, leading the weight loss.
