Maybe something natural. Thank You!
This is a vaso-vagal reflex!!!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about these symptoms that you have reported following bowel movements. This is typical of vasovagal syncope/lipothymia. This leads to a rapid drop in blood pressure which results in low oxygen flow to the brain which causes these symptoms. This is the reason why. I will suggest that after bowel movements, I Will sill suggest that you lie down flat for a while with the legs raised. This will prevent such symptoms. Also, avoid rising too quickly from the seated position. Finally, avoid over straining while pooping. Please, report the progress to me.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
