I take dump/stool 3 times nowadays. whats the problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May be normal: Your dumping 3 times daily may be normal. Normal stool frequency is anywhere from 4 times per day to once every 4 days. As long as you don't have discomfort or suffer from constipation or diarrhea, 3 stools per day may be due in part to what you're eating. If you are having to strain, or you have urgency, you should see your doctor.
