Yes, that's correct! Traditional foam mattresses used to retain heat, but newer models often incorporate improved ventilation technologies to address this issue and provide better temperature regulation for sleepers.

Hey there! Yes it can as it is a bad conductor. Constipation has also been seen in previous times being caused due to sitting or sleeping on such soft material. Any how, the problem you are facing might be a resultant of quite other mixed factors. Be it lifestyle, job type.... If you are working from home and alot of time is spent on that foam, the foam might be the causative factor. Please think and act accordingly.

Ortho mattress does'nt gives heat instead, your're sleeping in or on can have a huge impact on your body's temperature. Sleeping on a foam mattress that traps in heat and doesn't allow for sufficient airflow is a common cause of feeling hot in the middle of the night.
You need proper consultation to rule out other issues related to constipation.
