Chronic abdominal bloating and constipation
Chronic abdominal bloating and constipation can be incredibly frustrating and difficult conditions to navigate. I find that I am treating these conditions more and more in the clinic, and with these conditions I sometimes see laxative dependence.

Dr. Levitt’s Ideal Bowel Habit (which I have adopted and use as a goal in clinic):
1. The ability to defer the urge to poop at least 1 hour without abdominal or rectal pain as a result of deferring that urge
2. Complete voluntary control over gas and normally formed stool, not diarrhea (a.k.a. no leaking gas or poop!)
3. Prompt initiation of a bowel movement once sitting on the toilet
4. Smooth, steady passage of stool over 1-2 minutes or less without pain, bleeding, or prolapse
5. Sensation of complete rectal emptying upon leaving the toilet
6. No rectal or perianal skin symptoms between bowel movements
7. No abdominal pain or bloating between bowel movements
