Have you considered a food intolerance, anna17XOX? If you have a food intolerance, your gut can be like a car engine that backfires and doesn't work well. I even think an intolerance can stymie laxatives (I think my intolerances did so for me). And an intolerance can come on quickly, as in one day you are fine and the next you are intolerant.

not sure,i recently tried exploring a food intolerance by forgoing peanuts but didn't notice any changes so now i'm trying to see what to forgo next.But since you mentioned that an intolerance can stymie laxative. Do you know and have a food intolerance or are you currently exploring yours as well ?.

I have been eating lots of whole wheat bread,oat meal,fruits and veggies ,but last week i experienced a set-back because we had a ice cream party at school and im a sweet tooth so i couldn't help myself and i also had cinnamon rolls and chocolate cake,pasta and choclate lately.This food intolerance test is kind of hard and almost improbable for me.Having a social life and struggling with constipation is like a minefield,i really hate restricting like this.But maybe the set-back i had could be having an adverse effect on the colace im currently taking.I mean i have not pooped for 3 days and have been passng more gas instead which is frustrating.
