A member asked:
What does it mean if your constipated and your stool comes out green like fungus? i've been to the doctor many times too. please help!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Green stool: Occasional green stool color is normal, usually due to passage through the digestive tract with some degree of rapidity such that bile is incompletely metabolized (which contributes the brown color). Diet high in leafy greens can also cause this. Or iron supplementation. No association between green color and fungus.
