Hi,
The medicines you are taking are not likely to produce
constipation.
Fopymin is a drug to prevent neural tube defects in fetus .Dubogen is a
hormonal drug protecting baby in 1st three months. Both of them are essential.
The constipation is a
pregnancy symptom -due to bodily changes in pregnancy( slowing of intestinal movements, the digested food left in intestines for alonger time. so water is absorbed, stools become dry .
Management of constipation needs lifestyle changes,& mild laxatives suggested by your Doctor.
* take food with high fibers- veges,salads,fruits ( with skins), cereals& legumes, pulses with skin,in natural form.
* drink lot of water. abour 10 to 12 glasses in a day.
* light exercises daily,
*A glass of hot milk with a tea spoon of clarified butter at bed time helps.
* figs/dates are natural stool softners.
Thank you.
