Hi Dawn – The first thing we’d do is check out our constipation program here: http://constipationhelp.scdlifestyle.com If you don’t have regular bowl movements, the toxins and waste ca get reabsorbed into the blood stream, creating a toxic environment for the body. It’s important to go once a day, so we’d suggest addressing this with the program link given right away!

Hi I have had severe constipation for 40+ years now. It has gotten progressively worse the older I’ve gotten. I am 53 now and post menopausal. My question is, if you don’t poop, where does it go? I go two to three weeks without a bowel movement. I take Lactulose. But it doesn’t get the job done. I’m bloated all the time. And when I finally do go it is so painful and extremely exhausting. On the chart of poop mine is a three but with a twist. I’m sorry for the visual. The thickness is that of a Pringles can. So you can imagine the pain. The process is not quick but on the good side, I don’t have hemorrhoids. I just had a colonoscopy. All they found were a few polyps which were removed. But the amount of poop never seems to correspond to the amount it should be. So where does it go for those weeks that I don’t go? And do you have any advice on how to improve my constipation?

]]> By: Deven Sachdeva https://healthygut.com/4-common-signs-of-constipation/#comment-809417 http://scdlifestyle.com/?p=7680#comment-809417 Hi, I m 22 yrs old and since last 1 week I am passing a lot of gas, around 20-30 times a day, and i also feel my colon is not empty whole day, in morning my colon doesn’t empty, only gas passes away. My stomach also feels a little swollen
Then during the day, when stool get passed away, first of all I have this feeling that my colon is not completely empty after that, and secondly my stools are in partial liquid state along with some foam around it.
I am also going to have my xms next week, so I am all day at home since last 1 month,

Pls Suggest??

I feel my stomach gurgle (that feeling you get before you feel a fart to let out) but instead of the fart easing out normally I have to wait for it or push really hard for it to come out, sometimes I have to position my body a certain way (push legs up lying down) for them to come out. I do have some constipation issues and hemmoroids, but for the most part I have normal bowel movements. It’s not being able to fart that gets me. It feels like the farts implode back inside me.

Hi, I have had chronic constipation for about 30 years so know how you feel. Are your problems worse when you are premenstrual? It definitely has an effect. There are abdominal massages that you can do to help get things moving, have a look on you tube. Nothing seemed to work for me apart from senokot, it says not to take it long term, but on and off I have taken it for years. I also have laxido now too. Also, have you tried prebiotics? Some people find that they work really well.

I have fecal impactions that cause me so much pain. It’s truly something that I wish no one to experience, I’m always uncomfortable and beyond bloated. I’ve been on liquid diets and others and tried fiber (even though I know it doesn’t work) and nothing happens. Enemas don’t do me anything and every single pill or powder that I am prescribed does not work. Currently it’s been a week and I cannot push. I have a procedure that I am getting done next week to see if it is due to my muscle. If this does nothing then I have no solution

I take long to pass my stool. When I do pass it’s not that much and rather skinny but not pencil thin. It has been thicker than pencil but it isn’t how my normal stool is. It’s been happening for a couple months. Saw a dr and he gave me stool softner, it hasn’t helped. I go to the bathroom 1-3 times a day and I never feel empty. I need help understanding

I have always waited to go to the bathroom, as to avoid going in public. I have been living overseas in third world countries, which normally means you have the opposite problem. A few years ago, I got an amoeba (which included symptoms like bloody stool and intermittent diarrhea and constipation.) I had a colonoscopy at the age of 22 to make sure everything was gone, and the doctor said it was. Since then, I have struggled with frequent constipated and having blood in my stools. Sometimes even horrible pain, which I believe to be fissures..? Anyways, I have been tracking my bowel movements for a few weeks and have gone almost every day, but still had cosntipation that was very painful, bled, and has caused fissure pain for several days now. I have tried prune juice, fiber pills (which I have never heard was bad for you), and drink at least 70 ounces of water a day. Does this seem like chronic IBS-C to you? Any tips?

I’ve been having a lot of gasy and bloating feeling ..my stomach looks a little swollen I’ve been drinking a little water and taking stool softeners and gas tablets but every time I have a bowel movement it’s just a little at the time . I go maybe 4 times a week and sometimes I go everyday but like I said it’s only small amounts ..I’m thinking about trying a laxative and hope that helps .I just hope it’s not more serious. .your feed back would be appreciated. .thank you

Hi Steve,

I was told I have a twisted colon, which apparently is common for women, I was put on Linzess which made things go the other way (if you know what I mean) and frankly after being diagnosed w/Breast Cancer 2 years ago I just don’t have the $ to keep going back to the dr. So thought I would purchase your e-book 🙂 I am only on 3 meds right now none of which cause constipation, this has just been an ongoing problem for me for years! Question is with the twisted colon do you think that I would still benefit from your book?
Please let me know.

Looking forward to your reply!

Thanks!

Hi Holly, I’m sorry to hear you guys are struggling. Constipation can range from not going to the bathroom at all for days to going to the bathroom daily but 1)not feeling all he way finished when done and/or 2) having hard, painful stools. We’d recommend starting teh SCD diet or something similar as soon as possible and also incorporating some more fats (like coconut oil) and enzymes to help with the constipation.

]]> By: Holly https://healthygut.com/4-common-signs-of-constipation/#comment-774836 http://scdlifestyle.com/?p=7680#comment-774836 Hello,
My mom has been dealing with gut issues for years from diverticulitis to diarrhea to constipation to sigmoid colon removal. I’ve always assumed the language she has used to describe her symptoms has been accurate. A few months ago, I learned that she calls having to go to the bathroom a lot with fairly normal stools is diarrhea. She says she is constipated because she has severe LUQ pain, but then explains she’s been going to the bathroom often with solid stools. Can you be constipated and go to the bathroom a lot with normal seeking stools? Is her pain constipation or something else? She has had a ridiculous amount of CT-scans showing nothing. Of course, all of this is compounded by her depression, anxiety, and continued apathy to get out of bed. Complex? Yes. Frustrating? Yes. We’ve been working together on all of this for over for years. Most of the medical community has given up on is. We’re not far behind them. Many thanks.

My names Liam I am 24, in good shape, and have a semi decent diet. I cook for myself which is good and bad ha. The reason for my irregularity is hard to talk about but I am a recovering drug addict, to be more specific pain meds. From sports (hockey,football)mostly I had 12 surgeries starting senior year hs ending the year I graduated college and ended up hooked. But this isn’t a drug forum so moving on. I’ve been clean for over 3 years now but I am still prescribed Suboxone. Which is an opiate given to addicts likes myself to stop any cravings and helps keep me off the streets and living a normal life. It’s a powerful opiate without giving a high due to the naloxone(blocks the receptors that get you high)If it helps I’m prescribed 16mgs which is a moderate to large dose. So there is the back story, I go threw periods of regularity and irregularity. Can’t pin point why it is in flux. Here’s my question, apologies for the novel, is there anything that could help me stay regular being diet changes, meds etc. any suggestions would be appreciated. Exercise probably doesn’t have to be addressed. I work out almost every day, it was one of the things that helped me stay clean. Again thank you in advance.

So um, for about a week now, I have found it pretty hard to poop. It started off extremely hard to do, with small soft stool coming out, but as the time has gone by its become easier and the stool has become bigger, however I do it much less frequently than I used to. Are these signs of it clearing up? Do I just have to wait it out a bit longer? Thanks in advanced!
