Everyone always says that pooping 2 or 3 times is healthy but as long as I can remember I poop about 4 or 5 times a month, i always poop once a week sometimes I won't poop in a week or when I get lucky I'll poop twice a week and my stomach is always bloated and hurting,I do drink water eat fruit and eat otameal almost every morning so fiber is not the problem, is this normal?

    Lots of green leafy vegetables and try some acidophilus. Also try eating some good yogurt on a regular basis. Good whole
    grain breads and cereals will also help. Also if you're bloating, you're not
    digesting and food is fermenting in
    your stomach and intestine, when
    you're shopping pick up the acidophilus and get a good full spectrum
    digestive enzyme.

    Do you take Vicodin or do opiates? RX painkillers, or any type of opiate will plug you up fast.

    Take metamucil or fiber plus every day.
    Maybe your dietary fiber isnt enough for you.

    Go to the doctor if it is hurting.
    You may have Celiac Disease or IBS.
    If you have more issues when you eat wheat you could have a gluten allergy like me

    I'm the exact same way. I'm not too worried about it. I have a balanced diet. My mom says to use stool softener. Haven't done it yet but you should Try it.

    You are probably constipated, that's all. You have to go see a doctor, they will take a picture of the inside of your stomach, and give you laxatives!

    When you don't poop regularly, (at least once a day or every other day at the longest) toxins build up in your body. It could end up causing you to have a lot of health problems. Definitely talk to your dr about this! Your body is trying to tell you something.

    It means you have slow digestion. I have the same thing, but lately, I go around twice a week. But there are months when I only go 3 or so times. It's not unhealthy, don't worry.
