A member asked:
What would cause consistently soft stools for the past year and a half?

Dietary: At your age, lucky you. Perhaps you have changed your diet to include more fiber to keep stools hydrated, soft, and easy to evacuate. Regular use of oatmeal can induce soft stools, and perhaps lower cholesterol.
