Constipated!!! Warning TMI!

[K8eee]

I've been put on iron tablets and have got the dreaded constipation I know it's caused by these as my poo is the same colour it would be if I had eaten spinach. Sorry if tmi!

Anyway, I want to try natural poo softeners so was thinking of going down the prune juice route but I've heard it tastes rank I'm more than happy to give it a go, so how much should I drink for it to have the desired effect? Any other suggestions are welcome too

I think a trip to holland & Barrett may be in order then! Will get some dried apricots, figs & prunes I think just to mix it up a bit and will try a pint of water with so dried fruit. No harm in trying that before resorting to medicine

Try laxado as it really helps. I am too and it is helping me. It's the best one, I got it prescribed by my doctor. Prune juice did nothing, fruit did nothing, water did nothing. Steer away from banana and eggs are this can contribute to slowing bowel movements down. Hope this helps xx
