How much did you know about the relationship between gut microbiota and health?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>I was at least familiar with the term &#8220;gut microbiota.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Q2. How much did you know about Gut Microbiota Transplantation (FMT)?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>I had no knowledge of it at all.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Q3. How did you first learn about our association\u2019s Gut Microbiota Transplantation program?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>I learned about it from my primary care doctor.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Q4. Before deciding to undergo the transplant, were there any hesitations or concerns you had?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>The cost was high, and I wasn\u2019t sure if it would really be effective.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/fmt.sym-biosis.co.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/calculator-1085391_1280-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14222\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<p><strong>Q5. From the time you applied for the transplant until after it was completed, was the explanation and support provided by the medical institution sufficient?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>The explanations and support were sufficient, and I was able to proceed with the transplant with a clear understanding and confidence.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Q6. How did your symptoms change after undergoing the transplant?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>Before, during, and after the transplant, there wasn\u2019t a significant change in my mental state, but after the transplant, about 70-80% of my physical symptoms decreased, making me feel much better.<br\/>My abdominal bloating and pain have significantly decreased, and the amount of stool has increased (though I still tend to experience bloating when I spend long hours doing desk work).<br\/>There were significant fluctuations during the transplant period.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/fmt.sym-biosis.co.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/hand-1868015_1280-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14224\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<p><strong>Q7. After the transplant, are there any lifestyle habits or mindsets you consciously maintain to support and preserve the gut bacteria that have become your allies?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>Avoid consuming too much sugar. Do not take artificial sweeteners. Eat until about 80% full.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Q8. In the future, would you consider undergoing regular transplants to maintain your health?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>I would like to consider it positively.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Q9. Would you consider recommending the transplant to someone you know?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>I would like to inform others about it as one of the options.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Q10. Please share a message for those who are about to undergo the transplant or are hesitant about it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>I feel that the transplant has been more effective than treatment with supplements.<br\/>If you haven\u2019t felt much effect from supplements, please consider giving this a try.<br\/> <br\/><\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Q11.
