A member asked:
Please describe the the symptoms of constipation vs. period cramps?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Timing /components: If your stools are thick/enlarged in diameter &/or hard to pass you are constipated. It can be present every day of the month. Period related discomfort is related to chemicals created in the cycle, usually occur around the time of menses and has no direct relationship to your stool pattern. Both issues can occur in the same person and overlap their symptoms.
