GlossaryConstipation

difficulty passing stool due to infrequent or hard bowel movements

Constipation refers to infrequent or difficult bowel movements, often characterized by hard, dry stools that are difficult to pass. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including a low-fiber diet, dehydration, lack of physical activity, or certain medications. Chronic constipation may require medical evaluation to rule out underlying conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or colorectal disorders.
