How to treat constipation in pregnant women effectively?

Patient's question:

Female, 25 years old, after pregnancy, feeling uncomfortable all over, always feeling dizzy, always wanting to vomit, occasionally having constipation symptoms. I want to ask here, how should constipation in pregnant women be treated effectively?

Doctor's answer:

Your condition is likely caused by overly refined food leading to less bowel movement, which stays in the body for a longer time—a common reason for constipation. If this is the case, you can eat more high-fiber vegetables like celery and chives, and consume more corn to increase bowel movement. Additionally, drink more water and establish a regular bowel movement habit. I believe you will feel better after some time of adjustment.
There are many methods for treating diseases, but since each patient's condition is different, the treatment approach must be tailored accordingly. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to seek professional medical evaluation at a hospital as soon as possible to receive targeted treatment.
