What Causes Chills After Bowel Movement?
Why is it that, when I have a sizable bowel movement, I feel chills after? The chills are not terrible, but they are there and they last a few minutes. I do not suffer from constipation or anything like that. I am a middle aged woman, who has ranged from healthy weight to about 15 pounds over....but I've noticed this all my adult life. Brrr!

Dear since when you're having this problem??
Passing a bowel movement is an intricate,coordinated event that requires a specific sequence of nerves & muscles firing.
One phase is the sympathetic phase, and the other is the parasympathetic phase.
