There are physiological and pathologic reasons for hunger after bowel movement, and pathologic reasons include hyperthyroidism and diabetes mellitus.
1. Physiological reasons: one situation is that the gastrointestinal tract is emptied after the stool, resulting in a sense of emptiness in the stomach, so the feeling of hunger occurs; another situation is that after the intestinal tract is emptied, it will send a signal to the center of the brain that needs to eat, thus generating a sense of hunger. If there is usually no discomfort, this is a normal phenomenon.
