Symptom #4: Constipation
If you don’t pass stools for longer than usual then this is likely to result in dry, hard stools which can be difficult to pass. This is because they have spent more time in the digestive tract, meaning there has been more time for water to be absorbed. It can become painful and is something that can need medical assistance if severe enough.
Our digestive systems are partly controlled by the hormones in our bodies. If the hormones are affected, then it can result in us becoming constipated. Remedies are available that can help with constipation but a doctor’s appointment may be necessary if symptoms persist.
