What eating disorders cause a change in bowel movement?

First of all, if you're concerned that you have an eating disorder, you may need to contact a doctor or psychiatrist, talk to your parents, or peers. Eating disorders are not healthy, and can do lots of long term damage to your body. To answer your question: All of the above, and much more. Any change in your diet, the frequency with which you eat, or even your environment (added stress from a new job, moving into a new house) can result in a change in your bowel movements. There is no perfect definition of a 'normal' bowel movement, and there are many factors which can cause changes in your bowel movements. However, if you're experiencing less than 3 bowel movements a week, or more than 3 watery bowel movements a day, you may need to contact a doctor.


Why is it that bowel movements are sometimes hard?

This means you need more fiber in your diet. Eat more vegetables and fruit perhaps - quit eating the junk food.
