Research on this widespread condition focuses mainly on clinical trials for chronic constipation with less emphasis on patient experience and nonchronic situations.

It is likely that this is common among all sufferers of constipation, regardless of how often the condition is experienced.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;This work explored attitudes and perceptions of people who experience occasional constipation and self-treat with over the counter products, particularly Microlax&lt;sup&gt;®&lt;/sup&gt; microenemas.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;In this retrospective study, real-world data were collected from 1635 respondents from France and Russia who experienced occasional constipation. Participants completed a questionnaire about their experiences with occasional (not chronic) constipation and perceptions of over the counter treatments of oral laxatives, suppositories, and Microlax microenemas. Questions focused on comfort, quality of life, ease of use, and reliability of these treatments. Participants had used the microenema for treatment of occasional constipation within 3 months of study participation. Occasional constipation was based on the Rome IV diagnostic criteria for adults and babies. Data were analyzed across the total population of all groups, then by subgroup. Success criteria were defined as of at least 70% agreement with the statements scoring ≥ 7 on the scale of 0-10. The proportion of respondents agreeing with the individual statements was calculated using the denominator for the total sample within each group.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;This study shows that experiencing even occasional bouts of constipation negatively affect quality of life and well-being. Participants (women aged 25-54 years, older men, and women aged 60-80 years) reported that it severely limited daily life and activities and caused negative emotions and embarrassment. Pregnant women and mothers with babies showed great concern that constipation indicated a serious and painful condition and was bad for their babies.
