What patients are saying about Constipation

I don't allow myself to go more than 48 hours without moving my bowels. If I get to the 36 hour mark without having moved my bowel than I use a glycerin suppository to help soften the stool inside my rectum to make it easier and less painful to have a bowel movement. The key to constipation cure is preventing it in the first place, I had to find this out the hard way after years of struggling with chronic constipation.

I am a 51 year old female who has had chronic constipation problems all of my life. I can tell you what I have learned over the last 15 months about how to put an end to this constipation problem. 1 .I drink at least 64 oz.of water daily. 2. I eat a high fiber diet 25-35 grams a day. 3. I take Citrucel in the morning with my breakfast and in the evening after I get home from work. 4. I sit on the toilet for 30 minutes everyday at the same time to have a bowel movement.
