Bowel difficulty
Hi I'm on Progesterone and estrogen supplements. I'm on day 22 currently. I've been finding it difficult to pass stools as it is very hard for the past 4-5 days. It's becoming increasingly worse although I eat a lot of fiber and also drink a lot of water- at least 3 litres a day. Apart from 1 litre of buttermilk. I'm also urinating a lot more than usual. Are these normal symptoms?
