Friend of mine claims she sometimes poos 4x per day :confused:

ANY amount of information about this subject is too much information.

where's the option for < once per day. I probably average once every 2 or 3 days. Unless I eat dairy products, then it's 30-45 minutes after they are eaten.

Depends on the day. Sometimes not at all, sometimes 2-3 times, sometimes once. It seems to have a semi-direct correlation to my caffeine intake though...

I usually go twice a day, once in the morning after getting up, and another before I take a shower at night.

Usually it's pretty irregular. Some days I won't have to at all, and then others I will have to like 4 or 5 times.

Does your friend have celiac disease and not realize it?

?Well, how many times a day do you have a bowel movement?? I asked. ?On average.?

?Five or six,? she said.

?You have five or six BMs a day? Every day?? I queried, my raised eyebrows no doubt betraying my surprise.

?Sure,? she said. ?Doesn?t everybody??

The treatment for celiac disease is to eliminate gluten, the offending protein, from the diet. That means avoiding all foods containing wheat, rye, and barley. Once gluten is no longer present in the diet, the gut heals itself and regains its ability to absorb nutrients.

Highly Irregular...usually depends on how much grains I have eaten during the day.
