Constipation · the Agneya program
Days without a proper motion, and laxatives that work less each month.
Chronic constipation — fewer than three proper motions a week, straining, laxative dependence — is treatable by retraining the gut rather than forcing it. Treatment combines Ayurvedic medicines, fibre and fluid structure, and routine correction, with progress tracked on stool pattern and a symptom score, not just “feeling better.”

What's actually happening
Infrequent, hard or incomplete motions, often years of gradually increasing laxative doses that work less each month.
The gut can be retrained.
History including full medication review (many common medicines cause constipation), thyroid check in the Day-0 panel, and a scored baseline of frequency and form.
Protocol aimed at restoring the gut’s own rhythm, with laxative use tapered by the doctor as function returns — never cut abruptly. Day-30 and Day-90 tracking.
An honest boundary
Blood in stool, new constipation after 45, weight loss, or alternating with unexplained diarrhoea — referred first.
The next step
It starts with the Agneya assessment — a few minutes of structured questions, no lab numbers needed. It doesn't diagnose; it tells you whether a clinical conversation is worth having, and a doctor decides everything after that.
If your answers point to something that needs a different doctor first, the assessment says so and routes you there instead of into a program. See what Agneya does and doesn't treat →
Questions
No — tapered, supervised.
No — fibre alone fails for most chronic cases.
Most see rhythm returning inside 4–6 weeks.
Never on your own, and never as a condition of starting. Any change to existing medication happens only under doctor supervision, with your own numbers in front of them.
