I’ve dealt with chronic constipation for years due to childbirth changes and medication. If you’re in the same situation, I hope what has helped me might give you ideas to ➡️ discuss with your doctor. Please talk to a provider before trying anything new!What I keep on hand:⭐ Ultra-size tampon (for *temporary* internal support)⭐ Fleet suppositories⭐ Petroleum jelly⭐ Medical exam gloves⭐ Optional: a foot-stool for positioning (like a Squatty Potty)Here’s my routine:1️⃣ I put on exam gloves.2️⃣ When the urge to go first starts, I insert a tampon as intended. For me, this gives gentle support to the back vaginal wall—similar to “vaginal splinting”—and it helps my body signal the need to pass stool sooner.3️⃣ I use a Fleet suppository according to the package directions. I usually feel the urge within minutes.4️⃣ I apply petroleum jelly generously around the rectal area, and I place a small amount just inside the opening with a gloved finger.5️⃣ I stay nearby and let the suppository work. Gentle movement usually helps me. When the urge increases, I sit with my feet elevated (a Squatty Potty works for this) and I go. I always remove the tampon afterward.This routine has helped prevent the stool from becoming too large right before I try to pass it, which used to be the most painful part for me. The petroleum jelly also helps everything move more comfortably.I love that the Fleet suppositories are basically just glycerin. They come right back out when you have your bowel movement. They provide a little lubrication on their own. They aren’t painful to insert, though the first time is a little uncomfortable if you’ve never used suppositories before. Otherwise—no burning or anything. They give a strong, natural-seeming urge to go.Why I use a tampon and why it helps so much:The back vaginal wall sits right against the rectum. After childbirth, that wall can weaken and create a small space between the two areas (a rectocele). During a bowel movement, the pressure of bearing down can push stool into that space, causing it to gather and become larger right before exiting. Using a tampon right before I go gives temporary support to that wall, so stool isn’t pushed into that pocket while I’m having a bowel movement. This keeps my stool at a more manageable size and reduces pain.There are medical devices made specifically for internal support, but tampons have worked well for me because I already keep them on hand. I only do this because I’m familiar with using tampons safely, and 👋 I always remember to remove it at the end.I truly hope this helps someone else the way it helped me. I have to use all of the above steps together. The Fleet suppositories are definitely a key part.

I purchased Fleet Glycerin Suppositories for my mother, and they worked well for providing relief from occasional constipation. The product was easy for her to use and produced results within a reasonable amount of time.I appreciate having a dependable option available when she needs occasional digestive support. The suppositories are individually wrapped, which makes them convenient and hygienic. Most importantly, they were gentle and effective without causing significant discomfort.Overall, this is a reliable product that helped my mother when she needed it, and I would keep it on hand for future use.

Perfect, as gentle and effective enough for everyday use if required. Great price too, thank you!

It or miss. When it works ,it works! 75% effective. Without the horrible stomach pain.
