Constipation: Yellow or clay colored stools would be more concerning. Increase your fluid intake, increase fiber in your diet and/or take a fiber supplement like Metamucil. If you have no urge or little urge to defecate, try taking senokotS daily as directed as this is a bowel stimulant, is not too harsh, and contains a stool softener. If not improved, consult a gastroenterologist for evaluation and advice.
