Why Does Your Reflux Keep Coming Back?
If you've ever wondered why antacids only help for so long, or why your reflux seems to strike at the exact same time every day (after dinner, when you lie down, during a stressful week), you're not imagining things.
Reflux isn't random. It follows patterns.
And once you understand your pattern, you can start making changes that actually work.
Not All Reflux Is the Same
Most people think of reflux as one thing: that burning sensation after a big meal. But reflux actually shows up in a few distinct ways, and the habits, triggers, and solutions that help one pattern may not do much for another.
For example:
- Nighttime reflux is often less about what you ate and more about when you ate it, and the fact that lying down removes gravity from the equation.
- Post-meal reflux tends to flare in that 30-minute window after eating, when stomach pressure is at its highest.
- Stress-sensitive reflux can feel completely unpredictable, but it often follows your schedule more closely than you realize.
- Pregnancy-related heartburn has its own hormonal and physical causes, and its own set of solutions.
Understanding which type you're dealing with is the first step toward finding relief that actually sticks.

Take the Quiz: What Kind of Reflux Do You Have?
A Peek at What the Quiz Covers
The quiz walks through a few short questions about timing, symptoms, and lifestyle, including when your reflux tends to flare up, how severe it feels, and whether you're pregnant or postpartum.
From there, you'll get one your personalized results.
Why Knowing Your Pattern Matters
There's a reason the same advice doesn't work for everyone. Generic tips like "avoid spicy food" or "don't eat too late" can help some people and do almost nothing for others.
When you understand why your reflux is happening and when it tends to strike, you can focus on what's actually relevant to you, instead of trying everything at once and wondering why none of it seems to stick.
The quiz is a starting point, not a diagnosis. But for a lot of people, it's the moment things start to click.
