Constipation: What helps you?

Gastroenterologist don’t have many answers when it comes to constipation. They will certainly recommend fiber, miralax, water, other drugs but root cause seems mostly unknown. The newest research that is bringing excitement is related to microbiome. I can suggest that if you started any new medicines - even over the counter- prior to your issues then investigate the medication. Best of luck

My gastro doctor has said that women who had a large baby during childbirth with or without an episiotomy often have constipation later in life!
