Causes of Constipation

• As a side effect of certain medications ex. Iron supplements, anti-depressants

• Pregnancy – The female hormone Progesterone causes the muscles of the intestines to relax, making the peristaltic movements sluggish.

• Hormonal problems like Hypothyroidism

• Trouble having a bowel movement (straining to go)

• Hard or small stools

Treatments for Constipation

• MCDPA

• STARR SURGERY



MCDPA• M- Medicines: Probiotics are micro-organisms (bacteria and yeast) that

our beneficial to the health of the gut.

• C- Constac: Ayurvedic medicines can be wisely used to treat conditions

like constipation, sans the side effects that Allopathic medicines often have.

• D-Diet: A diet rich in fiber aids in formation of stools and is the backbone

of any constipation treatment.

• P-Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy: This is aimed at strengthening the

muscles of the pelvic region as they play an important role in evacuation of stools.

• A-Ayurvedic therapy: This includes Basti which is an Ayurvedic oil

enema therapy. It helps in relaxing the rectal muscles and anal sphincter.



BIOFEEDBACK

• Biofeedback is basically done to regain control over the rectal muscles. As discussed earlier, in chronic constipation, especially in Obstructed Defecation Syndrome, impaired rectal muscle function is an important causative factor leading to difficulty in expulsion of stools. In this non-invasive treatment, a probe is inserted into the rectum and the muscle activity is monitored on a computer screen. A physiotherapist will then guide you and train you to improve your defecation effort.



STARR SURGERY

• In cases of Obstructed Defecation Syndrome or when Chronic Constipation has led to rectal prolapse, surgical intervention in the form of STARR Surgery may become necessary.

• STARR (Stapled Trans Anal Rectal Resection) Surgery was invented by world-renowned colorectal surgeon, Dr Antonio Longo. Dr Porwal was fortunate to get an opportunity to learn the technique from Dr Longo himself, and currently, Dr Porwalperforms the maximum number of STARR surgeries per month in India.
