Constipation occurs when your colon absorbs too much water or the muscles contract too slowly, resulting in the stools staying in your colon for 3 days or longer, becoming hard and difficult to pass.
Bowel movements differ from one person to the next, with some people having bowel movements three times a day while only go twice a week. Anything longer than three or more days without a bowel movement is usually a sign of constipation.
There are many causes of constipation like not eating enough fibre, ignoring the urge to pass stools, lack of exercise, overuse of laxatives and hormonal problems.
Some more issues are dehydration, travel or other changes in routine, certain medications and pregnancy.
Some symptoms of constipation are fewer than three bowel movements a week, passing hard, dry stools, straining or pain during bowel movements, a feeling of fullness, even after having a bowel movement and experiencing a rectal blockage
The micro-organisms in your gut play a major role by keeping your gut flora diverse and healthy. Your gut bacteria help to digest your food and also keep bad bacteria at bay.
