Dr. Oz was asked by Andrea about chronic constipation. She wanted to know how long should it take a meal to digest and how many times a day should a person poop?
Dr. Oz says that the average person takes about 20 hours to push out what you eat. To figure out how long it takes for you, you need to eat something brightly colored (like beets) so that you will be able to track when it comes out. If you are not getting enough water or fiber, it can take you 100 hours to digest your food, which is bad for you because the food is essentially rotting in your belly during that time. You should see a doctor if you poop more than four times a day or if you don’t go to the bathroom at least every other day. However, if you do not have any stomach pain, then you probably do not have to worry. To help cure constipation eat things like fiber, probiotics (yogurt, kefir) and drink lots of water. You should also read Dr Oz’s segment on Constipation Causes, because there are other things that can constipate you, even if you drink lots of water and eat plenty of fiber. For example, calcium can make you constipated if you take too much of it by itself. Also, overuse of laxatives can cause constipation. Good thing that Dr Oz answers all of our questions about bowel movement issues!

you need help and are very sick and nasty stop talking about poop and get a life
Once you get to be 50, this topic becomes super important. Healthy eating, digestion, and elimination are key to feeling good and avoiding problems later on. Keep the poop discussion going Dr. Oz!!
Dr. Oz,
I have long wondered if this was normal. When I have to take a number 2, or “deuce” as we say in my house, I get very turned on sexually. When the turd is halfway out my anus, I feel the greatest sense of joy and fulfillment, almost like a high from Ecstasy or other street drugs. I can’t wait for the grand finish, when the fully formed turn finally hits the bowl and my anus contracts to normal size again. I love it so much, my cock gets hard and I think nasty thoughts when I’m shitting almost every time.
Is this normal? am I a freak and a weird dude?
Thanks,

Dear John Gumption,
You are a creep to post such a thing on the internet. Maybe see a shrink?? Or keep your sexual turn ons to yourself. Consider purchasing porn or just take care of things and never post this on the internet
Thanks,
All of humankind
He was obviously just trolling.
Why do i stool four or five times a day?Is this normal?
@John:
I too have the same feeling. Pushing out a big bowel movement is awesome and also excites me. I’m not gay but I feel these euphoric feelings described. Life is short, so enjoy a nice sh*t!
@ John G …
The prostate is a very sensitive and easily stimulated part of your
Body which is connection to your penis… There is a method called
“prostate milking” which can be used with and or without a toy
Maximum pleasure will be introduced and homosexual desires will
Increase… Depending on you of course. I personally do feel a slight
Arousal when pooping. Mmm when your pooping your anal schincters
Are relaxed and have been brushed and lightly stimulates by the poop
Before you try inserting anything in your bum… First gently massage your
Anal schincters, relax and start the insertion…. There should be no pain
And you pay tug on your penis to maximum pleasure.
Welcome to the world.

OMG! What the heck did I Google to get here!?
Y’all have a good one!
No pun!
This behavior could be caused by an emotional attachment to your past. For example, the anal stage of development between ages 2-4 is a period when potty training must be treating very delicately by parents. Although it is possible that this is a biological stimulation, any sexual experience is psychological as well as biological. I would say that because of your intense feelings of pleasure during bowel movements, it is very probable that your parents may have over-gratified your bathroom behavior during this stage. So really this is not entirely biological, but in your subconscious you are experiencing intense pleasure because of the reward you feel from your parents telling you how great you are for taking a big poo:)
@ jean, yes there is defInitely something wrong with you… Go see a doctor….. Xxxxxxxx xxx::::::Ddddd
@ basic
@basic psichiatry, sigmund freid was an idiot and psychology is 200 years behind. It doesnt have squat to dO with his childhood you dimwit… And that kind of sounds like incest… Disgusting anyhow dude, its a totally normal turn on. Hes thinkIng of sex with chicks not his parents approval when he is turned on…
@ dr astor you are 100% correct and your explanation makes more sense than anybody else’s here. Well, that’s why doctors are on this planet thumbs up…
Hi everyone I know this is an old article but was wondering what the effects of anal sex are on bowel movements. I have an active sex life with my girlfriend and she won’t let me do anal with her because she claims it will mess up her bowel movements. If anyone has any advice to the contrary please post. Thanks.
