A 42-year-old woman from Pune struggled with chronic constipation for over 5 years, relying daily on laxatives without lasting relief. After starting personalised homeopathic treatment at Dr Batra’s®, she experienced regular bowel movements, reduced bloating, and no longer needed laxatives, all within just 3 months
Constipation occurs when bowel movements become infrequent or difficult to pass, often leading to hardened stool, abdominal discomfort, and a sense of incomplete evacuation. It can be acute (short-term) or chronic (long-term)
Primary/Functional Constipation
Due to poor diet, lack of fibre, dehydration, or inactivity
Secondary Constipation:
Caused by underlying health conditions like thyroid disorders, diabetes, neurological issues, or medication side effects
Fewer than three bowel movements per week
Hard, dry, or lumpy stools
Difficulty or pain while passing stool/p>
Bloating and abdominal discomfort
A feeling of incomplete evacuation
Low fibre intake
Dehydration
Sedentary lifestyle
Ignoring the urge to pass stool
Stress and anxiety
Hormonal imbalances (thyroid, diabetes)
Medications (painkillers, antidepressants, iron supplements)
Homeopathy works by identifying the root cause and restoring healthy bowel function. It helps improve intestinal motility, reduce dryness, and alleviate associated symptoms such as pain or bloating
