    The patient was experiencing constipation related to hypothyroidism. The goals were for the patient to identify measures to alleviate constipation in the short term and maintain regular bowel movements in the long term. Nursing interventions included encouraging increased fluid intake, eating a high fiber diet, and exercising. The rationale was that sufficient fluid and fiber would soften stool while exercise would promote bowel movements. The evaluation was that the patient was able to achieve the goals.
