Excessive stools during ovulation is a phenomenon that many people are familiar with. During the ovulation period, a series of physiological changes will occur in the female reproductive tract, including increased secretions and an increased chance of sperm and egg meeting. These changes increase a woman's libido and may also make it easier for her to have a bowel movement.

So, why do you feel like having a bowel movement during ovulation? This may be because, during ovulation, a woman's reproductive tract begins secreting chemicals called prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are irritating substances that irritate a woman's gastrointestinal tract, causing the sensation of having a bowel movement.

In addition, during ovulation, a woman’s vagina also secretes some fluid, which also contains prostaglandins. These fluids can irritate a woman's gastrointestinal tract and can also cause the sensation of having a bowel movement.

While heavy stools during ovulation may be uncomfortable, it's not necessarily a problem. If you feel uncomfortable, you can reduce your intake appropriately or make dietary adjustments to relieve discomfort. In addition, if the feeling of defecation is too strong or is accompanied by other uncomfortable symptoms, it is recommended to seek medical treatment in time.
