I haven't had a bm in over 2 months my doctor prescribed me. but they have not worked please help me?

No BM for over 2 months is essentially impossible if you are eating regularly so I would question that length of time. Your Dr surely has done a thorough history & physical exam & maybe some tests (CT scan, blood tests, colonoscopy?) before prescribing anything? Definitely need a follow up visit. Assume you have already increased fiber & fluids in your daily diet.

Your history is peculiar but assuming you mean you have chronic constipation and are still living an otherwise normal life the first step would be to eat a plant based diet eliminating animal based foods like dairy, eggs and meat. If you were able to do this and still have constipation you have a serious medical problem and should obtain health care. If the diet change works take vitamin B12 daily
