Chronic constipation in a long-standing diabetic can occur due to reduced gut motility (diabetic autonomic neuropathy), hormonal factors, or medications, even if exercise and fruit intake are adequate. Age-related bowel changes can also contribute

In long-standing diabetes, constipation can happen even if exercise and fruits are taken regularly. Diabetes can slowly affect bowel movement, making the intestine work slower. Age, low water intake, and diet timing also play a role. How you can help her (without medicines): • Water is key: ensure 2.5–3 liters spread through the day (unless fluid-restricted) • Vegetables matter more than fruits for constipation: • Lauki, tori, pumpkin, spinach, carrot, beetroot (daily) • Soaked foods (morning): • 2 soaked figs or 5–6 soaked raisins • Fiber with timing: • Fruits are better in daytime, not late night • Healthy fats: • 1–2 tsp ghee in meals helps bowel movement • Routine: • Encourage toilet at the same time daily, without force • Stress & sleep also affect bowels—ensure proper rest If constipation is worsening despite all this, it may need specific evaluation related to diabetes-related gut slowing and personalized management. For further guidance and treatment planning, please contact me directly on Practo. Dr. RS Pankaj

Chronic long term constipation can be very difficult to treat. Please try the following, 1. Isabgol powder 2. Dulcoflex tablet 3. Movicol packet (these are very costly and try this only if option 1+2 haven’t worked). 4. Only if you haven’t already done blood tests- CBP, TSH, Calcium **Avoid the new medications called 5-HT mediators. We are learning various serious issues with these** All the best. J G S R clinic
