HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, I would suggest to try stool softener instead of taking milk of magnesia because it may cause the electrolyte depletion or disturbances although it is rare condition but can not be avoided so better to try Isabgol powder along with fiber containing diet hope this information helps.
