Constipation
I have constipation problem and its not for everyday and I dont excrete everyday. Sometimes its easy to excrete and sometimes its difficult. I have noticed when its difficult to excrete I get some thick fluid while getting stools. I have no infection as such as I dont feel those symptoms of itchiness. I have Hypothyroid as well and when I got to know I have thyroid then also I had constipation issues 4 year back.
I dont eat junk or something but I dont know why I am facing such indigestion issues.
Please help me

Thank you for reaching us.. Hypothyroidism can cause Constipation.. Check the levels and start treatment as suggested by Endocrinologist.. Only thing concerned in your history is thick fluid u r passing .. Sometimes we call it as early morning spurious diarrhea.. A sign of malignancy.. As you are young it is less likely but If there any family history of colorectal or any other malignancy better to get evaluated with colonoscopy..
