How to deal with severe constipation at 10 weeks pregnant?

Patient's question:

I am 27 years old. In the past few days, I have noticed brown discharge from my lower body and I don't know what it is. I suspect I might be pregnant. Please ask: What should I do if I have severe constipation at 10 weeks of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Regarding the communication between patients and doctors, the current recommendation is as follows: If you suffer from severe constipation after pregnancy, it is personally advised to adjust your diet. Eating more bananas and spinach is beneficial. Additionally, if constipation is indeed severe, you can try using a suppository. Medication-based dietary therapy is not recommended. Consume more fruits rich in dietary fiber, such as apples and bananas. Different causes lead to different symptoms. Patients should seek systematic and standardized examinations at reputable tertiary hospitals as soon as possible based on their specific conditions to ensure targeted treatment and rapid recovery.
