Stop cleansing: You may be irritating your colon and rectum.

Cleanse: I am not sure the type of cleanse you did but they can release toxins that can make you feel ill and could effect your bowel movements. I would be a good idea to get evaluated to make sure there is nothing more serious wrong. Some cleanses release the toxins but do not help you metabolize or get rid of them so that would be important information to find out.
