HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can understand this, the constipation and fatigue are not due to the thyroid problem, drink plenty off water eat fibber diet, daily go for defecation even if do not have such reflexes fix the time for toilet and follow the schedule, sit there for half an hour do not apply any force do not worry if you do not pass the stool for days, keep the stress level very low seep well hope this information helps you take care and have nice day.
