Constipation and IBS

Question

Asked for Male, 26 Years

I am drinking plenty of water in a day, eating home cooked food, and exercising regularly but still not able to poop. Earlier, two years back, I used to poop immediately after waking up in the morning but now, hardly I see anything in my toilet. I even drink 1 litre of water before brushing my teeth in the morning but no feel of going to the washroom. No pressure itself. After a few days, when I don't poop then I had to take an anti Constipation tablet after that I will poop but the next day, the same thing happens. Please help!
