I am struggling to poop these days and really need advice. Doctors fine nothing wrong…I drink 90oz of water a day, eat tons of fiber filled veggies and even take fiber supplements…idk what to do anymore

Cut down on the fiber. Maybe drink a coffee. If that doesn’t help. You can take a gentle ease. You take it at night. Should be able to go the next morning.

Don’t go too long without going. You can get sick.

Fiber can also create a bulky stool. Which can make constipation worse. I would highly suggest some sort of magnesium. And maybe some watermelon.

Fruit has always been my go to, especially pineapples. Also juice like prune juice, cranberry juice or even orange juice.

Movicol you can buy it over the counter at the chemist you can take it up to 3 times a day to get you going regularly, and then cut it back, it’s a powder sachet, don’t get the chocolate one, IT DOES NOT TASTE LIKE CHOCOLATE ! :rofl: the plain one has no taste and you can put in water juice or what ever
I’ve also found that 2-4 prunes a day and sultana bran each morning to help ALOT

Take a durkalax 2 if your really bad that will get you going take it when you go to bed morning you will go

Prune juice in the morning

Stool softener pills work well… coffee definitely helps, especially followed by a glass of ice water! But ultimately what certainly helps is walking. A couple of 15-20 min walks per day is great help and overall terrific for general health!

Stop eating yeast. It made a huge difference to me.

Eating too much fiber can make you constipated. try curing dairy and rice out of your diet as well. Drink coffee, prune juice, blueberries, try a stool softener to get things going.

Magnesium citrate. It’s like 1.50 at Walmart. Walgreens, etc. It works GREAT but don’t plan on anything outside of your home for the day.

I add Miralax to my morning coffee. It takes a while for it to work. Once I start going I add it every other day. You can adjust it according to your body.

Sounds super silly, but drink a 20 oz coke cola. Not the fake stuff , true cokecola

Just drink prune juice. Nasty but works.

I think it’s called magnesium citrate… They use it for colonoscopy prep. It’ll make ya poop your brains out

Well… Your body has become dependent on what you do take to have a BM. And taking more could create a bigger problem. Try natural things… Prunes. Prune juice. Apples juice. Coffee. Dr. Pepper. If you actually do get backed up take milk of mag and warm prune juice. I only go once a week now that I’m older. Used to be everyday. Things change when ya get older.

Magnesium tablets help take at night with water

Flaxseed oil capsule daily

Drink coffee in the morning. Try walking also.

Are you seeing specialis gastroenterlogist? If not then make an appointment with one.

Cross your legs when you try to go

Oh and too much fibre will cause huge issues so stop taking fibre supplements!

I don’t poop for weeks at a time it’s terrible you can buy miralax over the counter drink some every day

When you say the doctors can find nothing wrong I’m assuming you have had a colonoscopy done? If not I would absolutely not stop pushing until they got you in for one.

Drink a warm glass of salt water. Stay home cause it will be coming shortly

I eat two kiwis a day and drink kefir and so far has been working

I give my little ones blueberries, works straight away. Pure orange, change of diet? Coffee? Dark Chocolate?
