Consider Laxatives
Laxatives can help relieve [12] constipation and induce bowel movement. These substances can be purchased over the counter, but regular use is not advisable. You should speak to your doctor before resorting to laxatives when you are constipated.
There are several types of laxatives your doctor may recommend. The main types are stimulant laxatives, bulking agents, stool softeners, and osmotic laxatives. Both osmotic laxatives and stool softeners help stool pass with ease. Osmotic laxatives do this by absorbing water into the digestive system from surrounding tissues, while stool softeners contain oils to ease stool passage in the bowels.
