Do you have symptoms of constipation?
Constipation is a common problem that can affect people of all ages. So common, in fact, that you may not even be aware that you have constipation symptoms. You might be surprised to discover that if you are experiencing any of the following, it could be your body’s way of saying you are constipated.
-
Fewer trips to the bathroom.
-
Abdominal pain or discomfort.
-
Feeling bloated.
-
Difficulty going.
-
Feeling you still need to ‘go’.
-
Your poo is large and dry, hard and lumpy.
Concerned about constipation?
Although constipation is not usually a serious condition, it can affect your everyday life and well-being.
If you are constipated, your digestive system, which helps you process food, is disrupted. This affects your bowels so you have to poo less often or it becomes more difficult to ‘go’.
While this can happen at any age and sometimes there is no reason behind it, constipation is more common in women, pregnant women, and older people.
What is normal?
Knowing what’s normal for you when it comes to poo is important – going between 3 times a day and 3 times a week is fine if that is what is normal for you. Going less than 3 times a week could be constipation. But don’t worry, constipation needn’t slow you down – we aim to help you say goodbye to the discomfort of constipation and get you back to your normal.
