Thx for replying. Yes I am having constipation time to time and one more question. Can constipation effect on menstrual cycle? And irregular menstrual cycle cause weight gain?

I have 19 month son and I am still breast feeding full time. I am suffering with irregularities in my menstrual cycle. Can it effect too?

Hi there.  Constipation definitely cases weight gain.  I have a good friend with cancer.  She is very tiny and due to chemo has lost a lot of weight.  The chemo drugs also cause constipation and she has made jokes about that being the only way she can put on weight.  Also, popcorn is a fibrous food so shouldn't cause constipation.
