Bowel Flora: Hard stools in a twenties female after a bout of strept throat might be due to antibiotic interference with the normal ecology of the bowel bacterial flora. Increased water, a natural fiber based stool softener, yogurt and pro-biotics from the health food store might normalize bowel function. If problem continues see your doctor.
