Undergone Colonoscopy. Had Regular Bowel Movement. No Bowel Movement Even After Laxative. Remedy?
I had a colonoscopy a month ago. I have always had regular bowel movement. Now I can't have one without taking a laxative. The first time I took a laxative was 2 weeks after the colonoscopy, only used it once. two weeks later I took another Laxative it worked fine. It's been a week since the last laxative still no bowel movement, why?
