Patient's question:
Female, 26 years old, after getting pregnant, she has severe constipation. The stool is dry and hard, and defecation is particularly difficult. The defecation time is long. How should I deal with severe constipation after pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Constipation is usually closely related to a person's lifestyle and diet. It is necessary to eat more fruits, vegetables, and coarse grains on a daily basis, which can help prevent and alleviate constipation. If constipation occurs occasionally, you can also supplement with certain foods such as honey, bananas, and yogurt. If this still does not provide stable relief, it is recommended to try medications that promote intestinal movement, which can help with bowel movements. These medications take effect relatively quickly.
