A member asked:

Can lactic bacillus with vitamin b complex cause hard stool in pregnency?

Dr. Sathya Jaganmohan answered

Specializes in Internal Medicine - gastroenterology

Constipation: Usually not. On the other hand, if your b complex tablet has iron in it, the iron can cause constipation. Lactobacillus is a probiotic used to replenish normal good bacteria in the colon and is usually beneficial in regularizing bowel habits.
