  OMG ! &nbsp;In my 57 years , I&apos;ve never had constipation. &nbsp;Until 5 months into this medication. I experienced the most painful bouts ever! &nbsp;Nothing like trying to push a bowling ball out your ass.

  I actually spoke with my dr. last week about this subject. &nbsp;He advised me to use Miralax daily but to give it some time. &nbsp;It&apos;s been &nbsp;a week and nothing LOL &nbsp;Now, I already had an issue and the Ozempic has made it worse - today I had to use my guaranteed stand by of Milk of Magnesia. &nbsp;Works within a couple hours and SO glad I did. &nbsp;And I will log (no pun intended) when I have to resort to using it and will continue with the Miralax as he requested. &nbsp;I do want to tell you - I subbed a little while back and so glad that I did. &nbsp;I truly get something useful whether by things to try, clarity or even just something for my mental rolodex for perhaps later use. &nbsp;I like your format and content. &nbsp;You do not inflict on us 20 minutes of useless babble! &nbsp;The subjects are clear and fully addressed, plus you do provide as I stated before much needed clarity. &nbsp;Thank you!

  Honestly the constipation convos around these meds scare me 😭 i already struggled with bathroom issues before and felt sooo uncomfortable daily. Tried every trick and still felt stuck. Weirdly a woman in a healing forum told me to read Eat.Like.a.Woman.Protocol by L. Green. My digestion got sooo much better, 27 lbs down too. Kinda crazy this isn’t more known.

  I’m taking 150 mg of Magnesium Citrate each day and I’m on 5 mg tirzipetide. So far is working perfect everyday.

  Good to know. I now eat the one serving packets of prune baby food 2-3X a week, and it helps. I was surprised that eating a lot of veggies didn&apos;t do it. I&apos;ll make a huge Greek salad with minimal feta (tomatoes, cucumbers), eat it for 4 days, and it still doesn&apos;t necessarily move things along. However, I still go every day. I didn&apos;t know other people don&apos;t. Guess I&apos;m doing better than I thought. <br><br>Otherwise, Ozempic has been a miracle. It healed my lifelong eating disorder, dropped my AC1 to 6 from 11.5, and I&apos;ve dropped 80 lbs over two years.

  Linked to my constipation, I have been having rectal spasms and also a fissure which has been very painful. My doctor has been great and we have worked together to resolve this. We have instigated all of the same steps you have discussed and on the whole I am doing well although I still get constipated every now and then. ( And the spasm returns). Apart from this I am feeling so much healthier and have lost 30 kg. ( 73 years old)<br>Thanks for putting this information out there 🌺
