Am I just constipated? what should I do?

This could be IBS. (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) Do you get bad cramps as well? Try adding more fibre to your diet every day. Drinks loads of water and call to your chemist to get some constipation medicine for the days you aren't going. You can buy it over the counter. I have hemorhoids as well caused by IBS and sometimes I find it really hard to go and then other times it's too easy. I started eating porridge every morning and that has improved it a lot. When I have days that I can't go, I take a type of drink that I bought from my chemist and this softens the stools. Talk to your pharmacist, they can really help.
