Not enough info: Limited information. Diet could cause this situation e.g XS summer fruits (cherry, plum, peach, watermelon etc) causing diarrhea, then body adjusting and no BMs. If you have a family history of IBS or have prolonged symptoms do see a GI doc for a scope to determine the bowel condition. In the meantime limit red meat and corn (broth are inflammatory to the gut) and use emollient wipes post BMs.
