As : As long as there have been no changes in your stool pattern or stools such as diarrhea, constipation or bloody stools, then it is completely healthy. Some people only go 2-3 times a week and other folks go 2-3 times a day. We all have our own schedule. If this is a new change for you or if you are experiencing any of the stool patterns listed above, contact your doctor to discuss.
