Constipation Relief: Natural Tips for Gut Health, Hormones, and Weight Loss
Struggling with constipation? You’re not alone. Over 20% of adults deal with chronic constipation, which can impact your hormones, weight loss goals, and overall health.
At Aberdeen Peak Hormonal Health PLLC, we help men and women in Grays Harbor County find natural, sustainable solutions for constipation relief—without relying on harsh laxatives.
What Causes Constipation?
Constipation happens when your digestive system slows down, making it difficult to have regular bowel movements. Common causes include:
Hormonal imbalances (like low estrogen or testosterone)
Low-fiber diets
Dehydration
Lack of physical activity
Stress and anxiety
Hormone imbalances in perimenopause, menopause, and low testosterone can slow down gut motility, leading to bloating, discomfort, and difficulty with weight loss.
5 Natural Tips for Constipation Relief
✅ Eat More Fiber
Aim for 25-35 grams of fiber daily from foods like berries, lentils, chia seeds, flaxseeds, and leafy greens. Fiber helps bulk up stool and keeps your digestive system moving.
✅ Stay Hydrated
Drink at least 8-10 cups of water daily. Dehydration is a major cause of constipation.
✅ Exercise Regularly
Even a 30-minute walk can stimulate digestion and improve bowel regularity. At Aberdeen Peak Hormonal Health PLLC, we encourage our patients to build movement into their day for better gut health and hormone balance.
✅ Consider Magnesium
Magnesium citrate or magnesium glycinate can relax the bowels and support hormone function. Always check with a healthcare provider before adding supplements.
✅ Optimize Your Hormones
If you’re struggling with constipation and low energy, weight gain, or mood swings, it might be related to hormonal imbalances. We offer bioidentical hormone therapy for men and women to restore balance and improve digestion naturally.
