4. HORMONAL FLUCTUATIONS
Could be the cause if: You are premenstrual or in the early stages of pregnancy.During pregnancy, and just before your period, levels of the hormone progesterone are raised.This can slow down gut motility or movement, which means food passes more slowly through the body, leading to bloating and possibly constipation.But you can beat the bloat. Exercise can help improve gut motility and walking for 30 minutes a day could be enough to make the difference.Also, drink plenty of fluids and eat lots of fruit, vegetables and whole grains to avoid constipation.
