I feel exhausted after almost every bowel movement, even when i don't strain. but i'll be fine before. what could it mean?

Depends: If this is recent you may have a virus which may just resolve on its own. If it has been a long term problem review this withyour doctor and see if you need labs to check for anemia or blood in your stool or thyroid problems. If you have recently been checked and told you were fine and not pregnant then it will probably resolve on its own.
