Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have loose unformed stools for almost the time I have been observing(maybe 5-6 months).. I am vegetarian.. and I did routine health check-up 3 months back and report on my routine stool test then was normal ... However due to curiosity I did one more stool test 2 days back which also came normal except that Is said "vegetable fibers : present".. Sometimes I also see undigested food matter in the bowel.. !! Can you please update if this is concern..

What Causes Loose And Unformed Bowel Movement?
Hi, I understand your concern. Unformed stools are indicating indigestion. Increased fiber intake might be a cause. Another one is alteration in stool flora. Apart stool test, I advise to run examination of stool for ova/parasites, as sometimes intestinal worms can use indigestion. Try to eat slowly, chew up well and slowly do not rush as this cannot be digested by your stomach. Observe what foods are passing in the stool indigested, in order not to use them until fully recovered. Take probiotics to stabilize intestinal flora. Vegetable fibers are fibers derived by vegetables you consume. A diet high in fiber can cause loose motion too. Hope this helps.
