Suggest Treatment For Constipation And Blood In Stool During Pregnancy
i m 7 -8 weeks along and severely constipated. just noticed some blood in my stools too. now its painful to sit on a chair for a few mins n then it settles along. this is the second time it has happened. i am pregnant for the first time and am scared.
Constipation during pregnancy is quite common due to pregnancy hormones. So don't get scared. Eat high fibre diet.i,e. plenty of salads and fresh fruits. Drink at least 2 litres of water everyday. If this does not solve the constipation problem, you will need some stool softners. You need to consult your doctor for that. The hard stools has probably caused abrasion on the anal mucosa and that is why you are seeing blood and have pain. Once your constipation resolves, you should not have this blood and pain. If you still have this complaint you need to see your doctor.
