Patient's question:
Female, 26 years old, with very severe morning sickness symptoms, constantly vomiting. Recently, she found herself feeling particularly uncomfortable and having poor spirits, so she came to ask: What should a pregnant woman do if she gets constipation?Doctor's answer:
Constipation is caused by the inability to promptly eliminate stool from the intestines, leading to excessive water absorption and resulting in dry, hard stools. Increased physical activity after pregnancy is also related to constipation in this case. It is necessary to consume more vegetables and fruits, drink more water, and engage in more exercise. Through these measures, constipation can be stabilized. If it does not improve, you can temporarily drink water infused with senna leaves. 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. This is the only way to diagnose the condition accurately and achieve a quick recovery.
