Question 1

is it safe to drink ballerina tea at 34 weeks preg? contains senna and can cause extra bowel movements. will it harm baby or cause labor?

Would avoid: Ballerina tea is promoted as a diet herbal tea.
Senna is a laxative and the tea is not intended for use during pregnancy.

Question 2

my 13 month old son ingested part of a little tea candle. should i take him to the doctor, or just watch for strange bowel movements?

Question 4

what cause green bowel movement?

Accepted Answer

Some green undigestd: It may be green if you ate some green colour food which was undifested.If otherwise your bowels are regular and normal, i will not worry about it, but if you have green stool persisting then consult your doctor.

Question 5

can eating cookies with green sprinkles cause green bowel movements? i ate a lot of them.

Accepted Answer

Possible: If it is the same shade of green it is possible. However it is not good to eat such things i.e. cookies themselves, and also especially when there is artificially coloring since they can be toxic. If you keep seeing food products in your stool you should get checked to be sure your digestive tract is working properly. All the best to you!

Question 6

will using green coffee bean extract and garcinia cambogia cause bowel movements?

Accepted Answer

Don't use it: Garcinia cambogia is in most weight loss supplements, and can cause liver failure.It was also used in Hydroxycut which was taken off the market as people died from using it.  I see a handful of patients per month with abnormal liver tests after using this medicine. I would NOT recommend it. There is no "magic pill" for weight loss. Diet and exercise remain the #1 way to lose weight and keep it off

Question 7

can your period mess with your bowel movements, in terms of making you have more? and would it be normal for them to cause your stool to be a different color than nornal? like, dark green instead of brown?

Accepted Answer

: Endometriosis can cause abdominal cramping with periods, due to small amounts of bleeding inside the abdomen.  Endometriosis can also invade the large colon (bowel), with stimulation of contractions of the colon which speeds transit of waste products, resulting in color change and more frequency.  Ask your gyn about bcp's, which will reduce these symptoms.

Question 8

my 3 yr.old had bowel movement and it was neon green and hasnt eat anything green any ideas what could be the cause she does take a multivitamin daily?

Accepted Answer

Bile=green: The body adds bile acids to the digestive tract to aid digestion.These start out green and will transition through yellows to brown if they are metabolized by gut germs before exit. Rapid movement through the gut or poor gut germ action leaves it green. It does not indicate a real problem.Probiotics added to the diet can energise the gut germs.

Question 9

i have been taking fish oil, magnesium,b12,and iron pills together will they cause by bowel movement to change like dark green or black looking?

Accepted Answer

It's the iron: It will turn your stools black or dark green.

Question 10

Accepted Answer
