Patient's question:
Female, 26 years old, pregnant for over two months, experiencing severe morning sickness, unable to eat properly every day, vomiting after dinner, feeling very pitiful, looking very frail. How should pregnant women with constipation be treated?Doctor's answer:
Constipation is often closely related to lifestyle and diet. It is important to eat more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to prevent and alleviate constipation. If constipation occurs occasionally, you can digest some foods such as honey, bananas, and yogurt. If it cannot be resolved, it is recommended to try medications that promote intestinal movement, which can help with bowel movements. They take effect relatively quickly. Different causes lead to different symptoms. Patients need to seek systematic and standardized examinations at reputable tertiary hospitals as soon as possible based on their specific conditions to receive symptomatic treatment and recover quickly.
