What Causes Constipation And Less Urge For Bowel Movement?

HI, my wife is having problem with respect to stools. To be brief she struggles to have normal stools i.e. no sensation or urge to pass the stools. Almost this problem is there for past 15 days. She had tried to flush the stomach by laxative tablets and cleaned up the stomach. But after that for the past 3 days there is no bowel movements till date. This is first time she is having this trouble. Also, she has an Copper IUD as a birth control measure. Seek advice on this.
