Lactation constipation may be due to unreasonable diet structure, reduced activity, endocrine changes and other reasons.
1, diet structure unreasonable
lactating mothers if the diet is too greasy or fine, lack of sufficient cellulose, will lead to intestinal motility slowed down, and then cause constipation.
2, activity reduction
Lactating mothers need to take care of the baby, may need to sit or lie for a long time, will affect the gastrointestinal motility function, resulting in constipation.
3, endocrine changes
lactating mothers hormone levels will occur significantly, may lead to intestinal dysfunction, affecting food digestion and absorption, resulting in constipation.
