Morphology
constipated = constipate (transparent) = constipate + ed
Formed regularly as the past-participle/adjectival '-ed' of the verb 'constipate', so the adjectival meaning 'affected by constipation' follows predictably.
Etymology
The word constipated comes from Latin parts con- ('together') and stipare ('to press' or 'crowd'). So, being constipated is like waste in your body being 'pressed together' and not able to move, which is why it means having trouble going to the toilet.
