Question

I’ve heard that giving a child a proper amount of probiotics can have many health benefits. However, after drinking them, it seems like they haven’t had a bowel movement for several days. I want to know if probiotics are effective for infants who can’t poop due to constipation?

Answer

Consuming probiotics will not cause constipation or difficulty in bowel movements. On the contrary, taking an appropriate amount of probiotics can alleviate symptoms of constipation and difficulty in bowel movements. Infants experiencing this situation may be related to various factors, some of which may be caused by an imbalance in the intestinal flora.
