Input: Might be related to change in your diet Having a bowel motion every other day with no other symptoms is of no significance at the moment

Bowel movements: It is not unusual for the frequency of bowel movements to be irregular. It is not a problem to have a bowel movement every other day. If you would like, you could increase the amount of fiber in your diet, by eating more healthy vegetables and grains. Otherwise, I would not worry about it. Good luck.

BM's: Likely not an issue. Frequency of BM's can change.
