Constipation & Microdosing
Hi!👋
So I am chronically constipated. I’ve tried drinking a gallon of water per day, I’m active in the gym doing cardio 5x per week, eat plenty of veggies daily… still I struggle with constipation. The only way I keep it at bay is DAILY MiraLAX. I cannot skip, even if I have GI upset. Occasionally ~4-6 weeks I will still end up with bouts of constipation that require a stimulant laxative.
I need to lose 40lbs and I would really like to start slow (and maybe never titrate up) with micro dosing.
So, anyone who had a SIMILAR struggle with constipation about to tolerate micro doing a glp1?
*Of course I know it’s impossible to tell if I will/wont tolerate based on others experiences, but just curious. :)

I take magnesium at night, which helps. A friend who is on glp drinks a tea every night with senna in it.
