Some people remain asymptomatic to H. pylori because their immune system may effectively control the bacteria without causing inflammation or damage to the stomach lining. Genetic factors can also play a role, influencing how an individual's body responds to the infection. Additionally, the strain of H. pylori and other environmental factors, such as diet and lifestyle, can affect symptom development. As a result, while H. pylori is linked to conditions like gastritis and ulcers, not everyone infected will experience symptoms.
