If you have intermittent constipation with IBS then yes, it could be a possible cause because you are straining the pelvic floor and could be stressing the nerve. But maybe it could be the other way around -- if you have PN maybe it could be causing you to have IBS. Lots of people with PN say they have IBS.

There are lots of things that help constipation but you may have already tried them. Check out this link for some ideas:

PNE since 2002. Started from weightlifting. PNE surgery from Dr. Bautrant, Oct 2004. Pain now is usually a 0 and I can sit for hours on certain chairs. No longer take medication for PNE. Can work full time and do "The Firm" exercise program. 99% cured from PGAD. PNE surgery was right for me but it might not be for you. Do your research.
