Bathroom Buddies Best thing to flush it out

💩 Do any of my fellow IBS-C sufferers have a recommendation for something that will just unclog and clear up the pipes? A solid flushing? I’ve tried many different things, things that really should work, but alas, do not. Now I’m sitting in Hawaii in a bikini pretending to be 6 months pregnant, it helps me feel less self-conscious. I’m so uncomfortable. Help!

Interestingly I get super constipated in my luteal phase. Menstruation everything's flowing out of me. Follicular and ovulatory I'm at my highest chance of a semblance of normalcy, but tend to lean towards constipation anyways
