Ok. The biggest problem I have had since starting the NBE is constipation. Now I normally do get cons. around my period, but now it is all month! sheesh! I am taking the Alfalfa for bloating, and that helps a lot, but it maybe clogging me up more! Anyone deal with this and control it successfully???

Sheepishly,

Hey there Myjourney,
I have had some constipation also with BE. I am taking BO now, but I read somewhere,(can't remember where now, cuz I read too many different things) that estrogen can make you constipated. So, I don't really have a solution, but juices help (don't forget prune juice!) and I notice the days I take my DIM supplement it seems to help with that. It helps the body metabolize estrogen and may (the verdict is still out though) help with BE. I was just going to buy some little cans of prune juice to keep in the cupboard. Hope you feel better soon! :)

Mix some (one or two tablespoons) flax seeds in your morning oatmeal porrige or cereal. That does the trick.
