hello, you have misused the laxatives. you should stop those tablets and change the food habits. like take lot of green leafy vegetable, high fibre diet, whole grains, take lot of water. you add yogurt to your diet, which reduce gas formation. increase physical activity like cycling, walking swimmning, help you to get into the shape.
