A member asked:

I have recently went through treatment for h pylori and have had problems with constipation ever since, is this normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probiotics: I suspect you wiped out your good bacteria taking all those antibiotics for h. Pylori. Take a good high potency probiotic and i bet it will help. Of course you should also be eating a lot of vegetables and fruit for fiber and drinking 8 glasses of water a day.
