If, despite good daily intake of fluids and fiber foods or supplements combined with regular exercise, you still have no urges for BM's, taking a gentle bowel stimulant like senokotS according to instructions often helps regularity. If problems persist, consult a gastroenterologist for evaluation and advice. Try to avoid a laxative habit.
