Hi guys! I have struggled all my life with constipation, but since I started taking the pill, I have noticed a little improvement, and it's not that bad anymore. Is a because of the pill that I noticed improvement?

Hormonal birth control can cause changes in bowel regulation, so it’s possible.
Other than that it might help avoiding foods that are known to cause constipation (dairy products, red meats, gluten, and more).

Are you drinking more fluid with the contraceptive? Increased fluids can help gut motility as well as exercise.

@Marj_066 I’m trying to drink more but drinking water was always a problem for me and anything with sugar as well… I just can’t push myself to drink more

@xitty You don’t have to have water itself you can have tea, try decaffeinated. Herbal teas cold are actually really nice no need to add sugars to them and decaf coffee.
