How often should u go poo poo!

It suggests that your diet is very low in fibre. That's not very healthy in itself (people with low-fibre diets are more likely to get bowel cancer, for example), and it also suggests you're not eating much fruit or vegetables. It would be good to include more whole fruit (not juice) and vegetables in your diet.

I have asked a few people in my lifetime this same question and everyone has a different answer. Some of my friends go daily, while a few others go days between having a BM. Unless your doctor says there is something wrong it sounds normal to me.

Hello Kay…Good question. I wondered this too. My brother goes to the bathroom two or three times a day. Sometimes more…. I would have to agree with Ineligible on this one… Fiber plays an important role in your diet. I also think it has a lot to do with your metabolism. If you have an active metabolism and eat often to maintain your strength and energy levels, then I would imagine you would tend to go more often than if you didn’t eat much. I also found out that the process time for each person is different too. It takes me8-10 hours to process something all the way thru where my Brother has a faster processing time and usually has to go to the bathroom in 4-5 hours. Different types of food take different times….

I go like once every one or two days, any more then 2 days and i am farting...alot.. but i eat alot of fast food so i think that is why. If you are on medication that can be a reason for eregularity s/c

Im more like your brother, I shit 3 to 4 times a day, unless Im climbing, or backpacking, somethign about altitude screws up my system, if im up there for 3 to 4 ays Ill have to shit, and its nt a good one, constipated and painful, but once I come down to normal elevations, its like a flood gate, al that backed up shit is on its way out and I almost feel bad for the peopel that pull into the gas station I hit on my way out of the mountains and hit the first toilet and fill er up.

I'm as regular as clockwork, myself. I poo regularly at 5.00am without any problem. The only trouble is, I don't wake up till 6:30am :blush:

just an idea, but you may want to drink more water. In some people drinking just soda, or just juice will mess up your regularity. Give it a try, you got nothing to lose.
