Your Bowel Habits mainly depend on your personal habits Some people drink less water
It sis advisable to consume more water and juices to avoid Constipation Problems . Do not use Purge Laxatives . It is safe to use vegetable laxatives which will not cause habit. A glass of Warm Waterat Bedtime and as well as in the morning will help to evacuate your Bowels. Use high Fibre Diet.
As her age is on higher side .get her examined from surgeon.Get proctoscopy or colonoscopy done to rule out some chronic intestinal disease like crohn`s disease or regional ileitis .or even malignancy. She definitely needs through testing. Stool test for occult blood is also advisable.
