A member asked:
For the past few days after pooping, i have not felt completely empty and constantly feel like i have to go. could my period be causing this or cancer?

Period effect: Yes, the associated pelvic congestion may give you some rectal pressure and a sense of incomplete emptying of the rectum during bowel movements. If your bowel action doesn't normalize after your period is over, your physician, gastroenterologist or gynecologist can perform a rectal examination and advise you.
