I recognise what you are describing because I had a similar phase when my digestion shifted from predictable to inconsistent without any obvious reason. What helped me was reading explanations that approach the gut as an interconnected environment shaped by microbial balance diet habits stress levels and even lingering effects of medications. Seeing how these elements interact made it easier to understand why symptoms appear irregularly rather than in a simple pattern. When I wanted clearer guidance I found that https://mfm.au/blog/gut-health-functional-medicine-guide/ provided a structured way to interpret what healthy digestion should feel like and how subtle changes might signal deeper imbalances forming over time.
