How it works
Prolonged sitting on the toilet increases venous pressure in the anal cushions by reducing venous return. Short toilet visits significantly reduce haemorrhoid development and aggravation.
Simple habit change with no side effects. Effective as both prevention and treatment.
Epidemiological studies associate prolonged toilet sitting with higher haemorrhoid rates. Widely recommended in clinical guidelines as a behavioural modification.

“Some improvement but not as dramatic as I hoped. Might need longer to see full benefit. Still continuing.”
