I've been taking very strong iron tablets for about 5 months now. Iron tablets are terrible for constipation but I've been taking a combination vitamin at the same time of Primrose, Fish Oil & v.E. I've not experienced any constipation whilst on iron tablets so put my help down to this additional vitamin tablet but obviously can't prove it. I've taken iron tablets before with nothing else and have been constipated so that's why I assume it to be this tablet.

My DD also has issues with being regular and since giving her one dried fig a day, she's come right. Kiwifruit, Pears and Apples (last two you can grate and mix in blender for a drink) are all meant to help as well.
