MiraLax works for me and u can take it without getting dependent on it. It takes a few days to work but i like it.

Magnesium citrate works well, but it’s a powerful laxative…they give it to folks having a colonoscopy. It’ll work within 6 hours or so but you’ll want to stick close to a bathroom if you use it.

Just don’t wait too long. Constipation can be very dangerous.

Is pooping once a week ok?

Sorry I don’t know that. Do you have a doctor or nurse you could call and ask?

I’m going with @WhiteRaven. Magnesium citrate works good and fast, usually within 4-6 hours. It’s never failed me yet and it’s relatively inexpensive, you can get a bottle of CVS’s brand for $3.99 and it’s well worth it.

Maybe for some once a week is okay.
Do you feel bad. When you feel you got to go, but can’t then it’s a problem.
When i didn’t go regularly, it was when i was really having poor diet. I also think when i went that long, i wasn’t eating enough.

It had been 3 days for me as well. Cherryrs and lots of drinks and try laxatives.

Everyone is different on how often they go. I tend to go three to four times a day, but my diet is full of fiber.
