A member asked:
Ever since giving birth 1 year ago, i have very loose bowel in the morning after drinking 1 cup of coffee. im usually okay if i go another time of the day or if i have no coffee. could this be related to my low tsh or coffee?

Coffee is a powerful intestinal stimulant. It causes the walls of your intestines to contract and yields stool within 30 min to 1 hour. This does not allow for the normal amount of time where the intestine is reabsorbing water from the stool and therefore results in looser stool. There may not be any relation to TSH or hormones or giving birth.
