A Root-Cause Approach to Constipation Relief

What is constipation? Constipation occurs when bowel movements become infrequent or difficult to pass, often causing hard stools, discomfort, and a feeling of incomplete evacuation. It can be short-term (acute) or long-term (chronic). In India, constipation affects over 22% of the population, according to a 2023 report by the Indian Society of Gastroenterology. Understanding what leads to constipation is important for effective care. At Dr Batra’s®, treatment focuses on addressing root causes such as poor digestion, stress, or diet while supporting digestive health without relying on habit-forming laxatives.

Did you know?

Constipation affects 1 in 5 Indians, especially in urban areas. It is more common in women and older adults and is often linked to sedentary lifestyles, poor diet, stress, and social stigma around discussing digestive health.

Causes of Constipation

Several factors can contribute to constipation by affecting digestion and normal bowel movements. Understanding the cause of constipation helps identify the right treatment approach.

Low Fibre Intake

A diet low in fibre from fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can slow down bowel movements and make stools harder to pass.

Dehydration

Not drinking enough water can cause stools to become dry and hard, making bowel movements difficult.

Sedentary Lifestyle

Lack of physical activity can slow intestinal motility, increasing the risk of constipation.

Ignoring the Urge to Pass Stool

Regularly delaying bowel movements can make stools harder and disrupt the body’s natural bowel rhythm.

Stress and Anxiety

Emotional stress can affect digestive function and slow bowel movements.

Hormonal Imbalances

Conditions such as thyroid disorders, diabetes, or hormonal changes during pregnancy may impact digestion and bowel regularity. Pregnancy-related constipation is also common—read our guide on tips to deal with constipation during pregnancy.

Medications

Certain medicines, including painkillers, antidepressants, and iron supplements, may contribute to constipation.
