How Often Does a Normal Person Poop?

"Another new series? WTF?!?"

Someone just Googled how often does the normal person poop and ended up at The Churning. I'm not sure how it happened. I just ran the same search and we didn't end up in the first ten pages of results.

That tells me they sifted through at least ten pages of shit (pardon the pun) to find us and we didn't even have the answer to their question. So, I think we should provide a service to these inquiring minds. Now I understand that none of us would qualify as a "normal" person, especially myself - but let's help this internet novice by offering our own advice.

I'll start things off in the comments section. The rest of you MUST participate. Here's the question: "How often do you shit?"

  1. I get off to pooping in my pants. There’s something sexually stimulating about a hot steamer in my undergarments.

  2. I go at least 4 to 5 times a day!

  3. I poop about 1-2 times but if my gay partner fucks me in the ass, i’ll go like 2 more times after that.

  4. I go once every 2weeks, IF IM LUCKY!! i thnk i need2see a doc, it CANNOT b healthy!! i mean, a glass of milk i drank ova 2wks ago is stil inside me!! yhuk!! strange part is i eat aloooot nd dont gain weight!!!

  5. I shit like every day. Sometimes every other dependng on what i eat or drink. Alcohol def effects my pattern.

  6. I shit out cum bubbles and old taco sauce about twice a day.
    If I am at my dads house, then there is more cum than taco sauce and it is about 6 times a day instead.

  7. i dont shit very often but when i do its mostly blood so im not sure how much came out… and im usually real dizzy after… help!

    Do not have milk, Do not have bread[has sugar which causes ur rectum to swell + makes ur colon hold back your poop!], or anything with sugar… have coke zero instead of coke.

    DRINK HEAPS OF WATER… 2-4 litres a day. [NOT ALL AT ONCE]

    And have lots and lots of fibre… peas and corn. “not too muck corn, it has sugar”
    try to eat scrambled eggs with soy milk “dw tastes fine”.

    Dont have processed foods…

    EAT FRUIT!! Bananas apples oranges, pineapple, watermelon!

    I repeat do not strain when going to the loo! Worst thing you could do…

    You are feeling dizzy because your body is lacking nutrients which can be cured by having vitamins!!

    Have No foods with crumbs….

    Try to have Chicken, Beef meat with your vege’s!

    And above all… NO ALCOHOL!!!!! This will give you massive headache’s and make your stool carry blood! and may make u shit urself in public…

    Take some advice from some1 who’s been through what ur going through…

    You have a bowel disease and i’m saving you weeks in a hospital…

    I have had ulcerative colitis for years since i was 12.

    Talk to your doctor! and ask him for medication to help with abdomin pain.

  9. I go about once every-other-day. sometimes once a day. im sure my diet sucks tho…

    not being sarcastic or attempting to be funny like many others here…

  10. @ allt’ydup

    Idiot.
    coke zero is worse than coke, thats like sniffing nail polish remover instead of rubbing alchohal, artifical sugars are unnatural and cause holes in your brain.

  11. I usaully poo like once every two days or so.
    I come here and look at all the comments and I’m surprised to hear that people like pooping. Now that I think of it I guess I do too!

  12. I poop once every month. Help.

  13. actually this is like the 3rd site that showed up under google search.

  14. I poo 4-8 times a day lol

    is this healthy?

  15. i poo once every 3 days, im 140 lbs and dont gain weight..

    so i imagine its me and my black hole of a stomach!

    Doesnt matter how much I eat just won’t gain more weight, and I barely pooooo more.

  16. I LOVE POOPING!

  17. i poop at least one time or two a day

  18. If i eat Mcdonalds then i poop about 2 pounds.
    If i eat regular healthy foods then 1 pound.
    I have to poop almost everyday.

  19. blumpkins are the shit .

  20. I go about 4-5 times a day! At first I thought this was baaaaddd, but when I googled
    “average poop per day” I found out it’s dif for everyone. Coffee increases the amount of times a day. It’s weird, but they seem normal. To think about going 1 or 2 times a week absolutely weirds me out! I don’t think that’s particularly healthy.

  21. i don’t poop a lot but it is unhealthy to not poop at least once per day i know from experience i went to the doctor after about a week of not dropping a deuce and they X rayed me and found out that i was backed up into me small intestines my stomach hurt for a long time until i got that shit out of me so if you don’t poop at least once every day then see a doctor

  22. 6 times a day

  23. yes I dont poop every day because

  24. I POOP 5-6 TIMES IN A WEEK. WHICH MEANS ONCE IN A DAY, IF I DON’T EAT PROPERLY NOT AT ALL THROUGHOUT THE DAY. BUT I FEEL SOUND AND I AM TOLD THAT THE FREQUENCY I POOP IS THE NORMAL FOR A HUMAN. I TAKE PLENTY FIBRES, EXERCISE AND 6-7 GLASSES OF WATER. I AM ALSO 70 KG, NORMAL TO SLIM AND I DON’T GAIN WEIGHT EASILY. I AM ALSO 33 YEARS OLD AND UNMARRIED. GEORGIA.

  25. EMOTIONAL CONDITIONS IS ALSO A FACTOR THAT PLAYS IMPORTANT ROLE. FOR ME WORKING DAYS I DON’T POOP IN THE MORNING BECAUSE THAT TIME MY ONLY DUTY IS TO GET MYSELF SET TO GO TO WORK SO MY BM’s SHIFT FOR AFTERNOON OR EVENINGS. WEEKENDS OR IF I AM ON VACATIONS MY URGE FOR BM’s COMES SOMETIME AFTER I WAKE UP. I ALSO EVACUATE VERY EASILY.

  26. I go around 4-6 times a day… I enjoy reading my magazine :)

  27. my boyfriend poops once-twice a day, and whenever we fight/he gets upset. i only go like once or twice a week. but they’re nice big ass-stretching ones. his are little ass squishees, and i don’t think he gets it all. so i would say mine are more healthy.

  28. I poop once a day and the reason why i did this whole google search thing is cause lately my butt has been bleeding just a little (enough to notice when i wipe) im wondering if its cause of how often or how much, its not like i clog the toilet its just 1 whole 1 that’s all.

  29. i’m in my late twenties and so far up till now i would go about twice a week. i’m thin built, work heavy labor, drink tons of liquids, and eat like no tomorrow… before i go to sleep when i wake up before i go to work every break and lunch at work on my way home… i ate at least one full plate full at each of these moments… there were times that i would become worry cuz… damn i’m stuffing my self and nothing comes out the poop hole… i just piss a lot. lately i got this bad pain around my gut (with head and chest pain) but with some Imodium the guts pain went away… but still got this mean ass headache.

    but when i do go… it takes a while for it to come out… and about once a month i give a god size brick sacrifice to my toilet. just between me and everyone reading this. that one huge load actually rips me a bit open(i bleed) hate those ones. but came up with a technique to minimize all that,..

    I read some where that we should have around 3 bowl movements a day… the hell i know what that means… but iguess pooping once a day is pretty much average overall…- + a day

  30. i poop like 10 times a day! (no joke!)
    it’s insane and i’m sure it’s not very healthy!
    ohh well! i enjoy my potty time! :)

  31. On average i say i poop about every other day to every other other day. But there was this time two weeks ago when i started this new job on Monday, and I never had to take a shit until Wednesday. So for three days i never used the shitter. Never had any stomach pain and when i finally did shit, it wasn’t anything out of the norm. No dump truck load or anything…just that one journey to the shitter and thats it. And now that i think of it, I’m not even sure when i last used the bathroom before that Wed. it may have even been before Sunday that I last used the porcelain.

  32. Is this bad?

    I mean should i go see a doctor, or am i still within the norm.

  33. I poop about 2-3 times per month. If I eat Indian or Thai food, then I will have a bowl movement about an hour later, and usually 9-10 more movements during the next 24 hours. I eat red meat twice per day and never eat fruit or vegetables because I don’t prefer their taste.

  34. only noobs poop

  35. My buddy Shane, he poops once a day. I poop between 1-3 times a day. Sometimes it smells so gross that I cant help but admire it. Is that wrong?

  36. I argue with people that when someone keeps farting it is the bodies way of telling you, that you need a dump. Its is an audible sign and a smelly sign suggesting to you to go and do a poo.

    They argue this is nonsense, but it seems like logic.

    What do you think??

  37. Some people said 6 times a day?!?!? That’s like a part-time job! How do you have any time to do anything else in your day???

  38. my name is hannah i go to the toilet about 11 times a day and 9 of the are shits :) i love it it is the best part of my day lol is this wrong?

  39. ok well most u ppl who left a comment are freaks and nasty. no one cares about u getting fucked in the ass or cum coming out ur ass. leave the personally shit to urself. and for the ones who do not shit at least once a day, dont u think its time to go to the dr or clean up ur food and drink intake? the more junk food and pop and beer u take in holds back ur bowel movements. u need a body cleanse. go to any health place and ask for a body cleanse kit they are like 5 dollars. if u dont clean ur body out, it is dangerous and can cause multiple serious problems. normal the average person shits about 2 – 3 times a day. but yes it is still normal to shit more then that. it means u are eating good and ur body is getting rid of all the bad waste and toxins.

  40. and no farting is just a bodily function it does not mean u need to shit. it has something to do with ur digestive system and its normal. its nothing to argue about. u know when u need to shit. and its not cause u fart.

  41. my mom suffered colitis last year and it was quite an expensive disease..’”

  42. I poop 7-9 times a day. Often the last 3 are loose. I do my best thinking on the toilet. Toilet stalls should be all the way to the floor. Who invented toilet paper? Did Thomas Crapper invent the toilet? Its so hard to find someone to discuss these important issues. Why do people try to change the subject when crap comes up in the conversation? Those are my thoughts for the day. Any comments?

  43. I go 8 times a day. I photograph my food going in and my crap going out. I’m planning a show. Is this normal?

  44. i LIKE TO poop when im in the bathtub. Especially if Im in a bubble bath. The poopies like to float and i pretend that they are little sailboats and I smash them to pieces because I pretend to be the pirate ship. My poop is normally little hard lumps with pieces of goodies in them…they taste like corn…num nummmm

  45. I Poop about eight times a day then I pee right after. I’m a female and it makes my ass itch after. I have to wash myself every time I poop because when I wipe myself there’s a lot of crap in the tissue that it rips it. I then Have to get in the tub and wash myself. It’s a pain in the ass. I can’t even get a job cuz I always have to go to the bathroom. “Yes where do I see myself in five years? Going to the bathroom.” I would say to the interviewer. Hey all this typing is making me want to go poop.

  46. um really depending on the day!

    somtimes
    2-3 poops a day
    and sometimes
    4-6 poops a day!

  47. reading all this makes me need a poop

  48. My boyfriend and I were fighting about the “normal time a day to take a crap” and I googled it and this came up. He takes a dump about 3-5 times a day. I only go once and maybe every other day and he says that is unhealthy. I tell him he poops so much because he smokes a lot of weed then eats everything in site, where I dont smoke weed…I just draw back the occasional 20 piece. Anyway…is it safe to say that a healthy person can poop only one time day?I mean I have even tried the activia challenge and it seems to be working becasue I used to poop maybe 1 or 2 times per week. i would love to poop 5 times a day i would get alot of reading done thats for sure.

  49. I used to do it once a week or so. I don’t know what changed it but the past few days (like 5 or so) I’ve done it twice a day. I actually thought that was too much until I read the comments here. I thought once a week was normal, actually!

  50. Omg, are these comments serious?
    one- if you’re bleeding from your anus (and it continues after a bad bowl movement or anal), please, do yourself a favor and get checked out. have you ever considered it might be hemorroids?
    two- some people go over 3X a day? how is this possible!!?? (mine is probably 1-2 times daily and that takes up so much timmmmeeeee.)
    three- why do people like the smell???
