Members offered a variety of remedies for easing constipation, covering both over-the-counter options and natural approaches. Several members shared that magnesium supplements, specifically magnesium citrate during the day and magnesium glycinate at night, helped them become more regular, while others found relief from eating dried prunes, probiotic foods like coconut milk yogurt, or Miralax. A recurring theme was that what works varies from person to person, with one member noting they eventually turned to a traditional herbal remedy called Ma Zi Ren Wan after other options stopped working.

Wilma5 I have tried all these things. It works until it doesn't for me. My accupunturist suggested I try Ma Zi Rin Wan. It has worked wonders for me. For now. I hope one of these helps you.

Milk of magnesia makes me gag. I prefer to just eat a few prunes before bed. I'm glad it works for you.🧡
