Taking laxatives throughout life may not be safe. Instead lifestyle modification and adding fibers in diet will definitely help. Bleeding while passing stools should be checked. There r treatable causes of bleeding per rectum. Sometimes it may be serious problem too. Kindly meet the doctor and ask for PR proctoscopy.
