Hello,
With the question “Can I drink Proby with constipation after giving birth? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Postpartum women who suffer from constipation need to re-establish the normal defecation reflex soon, have a reasonable diet and rest to avoid negative consequences for the body. digestive and reproductive organs later. When having postpartum constipation, you need to:
Adequate diet, plant fiber supplements (green vegetables, fruits, legumes, whole grains, ..). Drink enough water every day: It is recommended to drink 1.5-2 liters of water per day. Light exercise and body movement. Practice the habit of going to the toilet every day and on time, avoiding holding the bowels and sitting for too long in the toilet (do not read newspapers or use the phone while defecating,...). Keep the mind relaxed, optimistic, avoid anxiety, sadness, anger, insomnia. Proby is an intestinal probiotic that helps to improve digestive disorders caused by intestinal dysbiosis (abdominal pain, indigestion, diarrhea, constipation). However, postpartum constipation is caused by many different causes, not entirely due to intestinal dysbiosis. Therefore, using this drug will have little or no effect in the treatment of postpartum constipation.
If you still have questions about postpartum constipation, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
