Why do i have to strain to poop, the poop is soft and i do not have constipation. is there an issue?

Your anal and pelvic muscles may not be in sinc. Try bringing your knees up more toward your chest when defecating. Lean forward with hands on thighs. Exercise regularly. Try yoga. See a proctologist as needed.
