Hi.
Thanks for your specific and short history.
Noted that you are a middle aged lady undergoing menopause.
For constipation you can take liquid cremaffin plus at bedtime.
This is the best solution as there is a dose adjustment that you can do on daily basis.
Like 1 to 3 tsf as per your requirements.
In addition avoid all the foods and beverages that you know of causing constipation.
Take only those foods and beverages that suit your intestines well.
