Try high fiber diet.: Lots of water and fiber can help move things along better. There is also some evidence to support adding probiotics to your diet. Finally, it may be helpful to rest your feet on a low stool while you are sitting on the toilet, as this may alter the angle of the rectum, and avoid excessive straining..
