Direct answer
Constipation can build gradually on GLP-1s, especially when appetite, fluids, and total intake drop. Track bowel frequency, stool difficulty, fluids, food volume, fiber fit, and abdominal symptoms. The worry point is not the label 'constipation' alone; it is severity, duration, pain, vomiting, or worsening trend.
