Encopresis is not just in toddlers
Although we understand that Encopresis (fecal soiling) is very common, especially among toddlers, many are unaware of how many pre-adolescents and adolescents suffer from stool withholding and encopresis. Despite the fact that they have had these problems for many, many years, these children can be effectively treated — with resolution of their soiling/encopresis. Never loose hope for these children. In the past few weeks, we have initiated treatment for several children ages 9–13 years. All of those children are presently doing very well. Their lives have changed, as have those of their parents.
