How often do you poop?

Question

Okay, please no stupid answers... I'm serious here. I'm a 28 year old female. My 20 year old female friend says she goes 2-5 times a day. My 27 year old husband goes 3-5 times a day. I usually go 3-5 times a week. Is one of these conditions unhealthy? Should I start drinking prune juice (ew!)?

I read some of the other "how often to you poop" questions, but is my condition serious? I mean, I don't have a hard time pooping, but it just takes more time for stuff to get through. I eat Raisin Bran often, I eat fruits and veggies, and I don't eat a lot of fast foods. Anyone? I mean, could this possibly be normal?

Answer 1

Eat Kashi cereal for breakfast a couple of time a week. It tastes good and it will help. BUT NOT EVERY DAY!
Try to eat more fruit, apples, grapefruit, not bananas.
Beyond that, if you are really worried please see a doctor.

Answer 2

If Ur not over eating (U must be 2 go that often) U do have a problem. When U defecate Ur voiding what the body doesn't need. If Ur not over eating U need 2 see a doctor, going that much something is wrong unless Ur over eating. Most folks go 1 time a day. Hope this helps or give U something 2 think about.
