Constipation can cause dehydration?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You have things back: Ward. Dehydration causes constipation. You need at least 80-100 oz of caffeine free/alcohol free fluid daily at a minimum to avoid constipation. More if you exercise or do anything strenuous., or if you are on meds that contribute to constipation.
