Dear Madam, Abortion has no connection with the constipation. For few days after abortion, you may get pain in lower abdomen due to the contractions of the uterus which is not only normal but is required to control uterine bleeding. The constipation could be due to some other cause. Are you on any medicines which can cause acidity and/or constipation? To get over the problem of constipation, you may take stools softner with warm water at bed time. This will take care of constipation as well as the bloating and heaviness in the abdomen. You are unnecessarily resting since the abortion. No physical activity also can lead to slow intestinal motions and constipation. There is no need to keep on resting unless advised by the doctor for some indication. I hope this helps you.
