PLEASEEEEE ANSWERRR!!!?!
Question: PLEASEEEEE ANSWERRR!!!?
I am a Muslim and so I fast for the month of Ramadan. But of course for the week of my period I did not so i have to make up for it now. I also had five other days because I was traveling. So i did those five days but I had some troubles with my stools, even though I have enough (more than sometimes) fiber and water to equal it. My question is how can I fast the last week with out getting constipation? I went to my doctor and he gave me a stool softener but my stool is already soft. That one time it just felt like my stool was really big.
So once again, how can i fast with out getting constipation even though I already have a lot of fiber and water?
I have to fast for around 12 hours.
Answers:
it sounds to me as if the normal eight ounces of water for the "average" person is not enough for you. Everybody's body is different and I believe that your body needs more water then most. I suggest buying one of those mini water bottles that look like an eight gallon water bottles and have it with you through out the day and sip on it even when you are not thirsty.
I have been constipated myself and my doctor told me that the normal eight ounces of water wasn't enough for me and that I had to drink more water and she was right.
Your answer can only be more water. The stool softener will help.
