Constipation has been killing me this whole 2nd trimester, my gynac mentioned lactulose last visit but i forgot to ask exactly how much. Dont wanna take more than needed na. Anyone been told a safe amount for pregnancy?
Before reaching for medicine I tried more water, soaked figs, prunes and lots of fibre, and that helped my constipation a lot. If it is still bad, your doctor can prescribe the right dose. Dont guess the quantity on your own na.
Please dont fix your own dose of any medicine, even a laxative, during pregnancy. The amount depends on you, so let your gynac decide. I had constipation too and my doctor told me exactly how much was safe for me.
