Change or usual 4 U?: Amount, color, frequency of stool varies with foods, speed of emptying of GI tract, medications ; supplements, gut flora (unique for each individual), additives (like blood), subtractions (like absent bile), infection, inflammation, more. If stool pattern has not changed ; is usual for you, then no need to worry. Medical evaluation is warranted if you've seen a change or had alarm signs/symptoms.
