I used to take Paxil. That stuff made me shit bricks that I never have made before or since.

Prozac does the same thing.

well im a female and i poop alot but recently i've been pooping up to 8 times a day. i think i have diaherra because the poop isn't solid but for some reason my poop is green. It has been green a lot and i haven't had brown poop yet. i dont know what this means but please help me for my butt cant take it any longer. Im beggining to think my hole is sore for i've been pooping so much. Before i poop though my stomach starts hurt like i need to take a massive dump but once i go to the bathroom it come outs less, watery, and green. please me. thank you. oh yea i sit on the toilet for about 29 mins untill it actually comes is this some kind of disease.

i was regular and brown up till yesterday, i havent changed my dieat at all and all of a sudden, its green... not just some little bit of green, but like a bright green, no brown here

Pooping Green,
take some immodium or pepto bismol as directed on the bottle. If you dont get relief from that, go see a doctor.

Eating salad helps relieve a lot of poop problems, including this.

In the morning when I get to work, I feel a really big poop coming. But when I go sit on the toilet, nothing comes out and I maybe fart a couple times. Whats with this?

hi i am female, and i poop and pee at the same time. I have done this ever since I was a kid. I used to ask my sister if she ever pooped and peed at the same time and she said no. Is pooping and peeing at the same time normal?

Hi I am a female and 37 weeks pregnant, I recently started pooping bright green. Should I be worried about this or is that normal? Thanks.

If you are having pooping problems, see a doctor. If you are on a medication, that may be the cause. If this persists, see a doctor.

Pregnant, you should call your OB, just to be sure. Even if it's off hours, there should be an exchange or a nurse on call who can advise you.

Dear Pregnant,
I assume that your poop is odd because of all the crazy stuff that you preggos eat. You probably ate a family size bag of M&Ms and picked out the green ones exclusively.

Signs point to BUY A PREGNANCY TEST

However, to be honest, my boobs hurt when I got pregnant.

Why the hell wouldn't you just go get a test at Rite Aid and test yourself in their restroom? This is a bit too serious to ask us.......please consider.

Sounds like it, although I didn't gain weight until my second month (now late into eighth) But don't take it from me, please go pee on the stick.

I have been trying to get pregnant for a while now and suddenly i have to poop alllllll the time. but, it is normal poop, still brown, still solid. it's like my bowels don't empty. like 4 time a day. can this be a symptom of pregnancy??? yes everyone i'm taking a test this weekend, but am only 1 day late so far.

I can't believe nobody has responded to this, it has been a week... does nobody have anything to say?

I poop a lot. 3-4 times a day is common. Sometimes it's a lot more than that. One time I counted 9 poops in one day. The stools are normal, no constipation, not too loose. Normal color. It just happens a lot.

And when I have to poop, I HAVE TO POOP NOW! I don't feel the need to poop coming on. It sneaks up on me. I go from no urge at all to "OMG, I have to poop NOW!" in as little as 3-5 minutes. I drive a truck for a living and I find myself rushing, panic-sticken to the nearest toilet several times a week.

Sometimes I can't get to a toilet fast enough (I drive through rural counties with up to 70 miles between gas stations and rest areas). I have had to poop in the woods, in a paper bag in the back of my truck...there have been a lot of odd and uncomfortable situations. I have had many "near misses" where I almost poop my pants. I have actually done the dirty deed (pooped my pants) twice this year. That's never happened before. It's embarassing and it has to stop.

I take anti-depressants. I drink 2-3 cups of coffee every morning. I drink soy milk on my cereal. I also have an enlarged prostate (my doctor ran tests and said I have nothing to worry about there). I am 50 years old and otherwise healthy for my age.

What is wrong with me? Help!

I think the responses would have been "Go take a pregnancy test this weekend." Asked, and answered.

For Prairie Doggin': I might suggest taking a weekend and try fasting. Don't eat ANYTHING after lunch on Friday. Eat nothing and drink ONLY water until Saturday evening. Yes, that's 30 hours. You said you wanted help.

Eat a normal, balanced meal for supper on Saturday night, with nothing but water after 7:00 p.m. Have a balanced breakfast on Sunday, including fruit, grain, and protein. ONE cup of coffee (maybe 10-12 oz), no juice.

Only water until lunch. Again, serving-suggestion sized meal, and only water again until supper. Balanced, not-huge supper, and once again, nothing but water after 7:00.

See if that doesn't reset the ol' system. Please give us an update; if it works, I'll send you a bill. :)

Well my family has a story that I pooped green after eating a box of blueberries when I was like 2.

To answer, very simply...I can't be bothered with every stupid bitch that wants to bring another bald toothless in-bred banjo player in to this world....my suggestion is go to WWW.somebodyelsemightgiveadamn.com and see what you come up with.

Im female and in the last 48 hrs ive poopied about 25 times, not in a sloppy mess kinda way, more like normal but where the hell did it all come from? i get period like pains then i feel kinds sick, after 10 mins or so im fine, i just wait a couple of hrs and it starts all over again.
Don't know if its a bug, my bodies going to pot or what?
Any ideas?
please help....

Well I have notice I poo a lot more when I have my period, and I have to go there and then. But this only happens on my period :S, is this normal?

I poop long and wide at times. Is this something to be worried about?

i had diarrhea for a few days and took imodium ad. I've eaten nothing but bananas and high fiber toast for the last two days. Now my poop is basically solid(no more diarrhea) but i'm gassy and I poop quite often, like once an hour or so. Should I start eating regular foods again and cut down on the fiber. and should i take Gas-X or something for the gas.

I have been pooping way more than I used too. I used to go every other day or 2-3 days, sometimes 4. Now I go about every day. It is really dark too, so its really scarring me. Its not black, but its close. Do you think eating a lot of Oreo's the past couple of days would do this?

Please help as I have no medical, so I cant see a doctor right now.

HI I was curious.... Whenever I am on my period,particularly towards the beginning i have to poop a lot. Is there any particular reason why biologically?

Alot of that can be attributed to the water gain we experience during the month. When your period starts and your body begins to get rid of that water, it increases your bowel's productivity. This makes you poop more.

To WorriedSick: Oreo cookies will certainly darken your poop. I had a lot of them a few weeks ago and noticed very dark stools. Since they weren't tarry or sticky (like those from digested blood), I didn't worry.

I am 6 weeks pregnant.
I poop at least 3 times a day, which is 2 more per day than how my body worked before pregnancy. Everything I read says that pregnant women have a problem with constipation; but my situation is the opposite! Does anybody know if all this pooping is a sign of something being wrong with my pregnancy?

I'm also 6 weeks pregnant and am having the exact same pooping issue. Anyhow, not sure what it's about, the only thing I can think of is that the iron from prenatals isn't trumping the extra fiber I'm trying to eat. Plus, if you're like me and eating more because you're starving it may just be our bodies working overtime to keep up with our intake. Were you on a diet before? I was on 1500 calories a day and have added cals to help sustain my weight and the 300 extra baby calories needed. That may have something to do with it...but if any poopers out there have better advice I;m certainly keen on hearing it!

AC you are fine, just be sure you know which baby NOT to drop off at the pool.

The answers to many of the questions on this site are here:

Suddenly pooping more often,...it all depends on how much food you eat. When I did the atkins diet, I only pooped once a day because I didn't each much. When I got off the diet and started eating everything I wanted again, I ended up sometimes pooping 2 times a day, or even 3 times if the second time didn't 'finish'. That's normal.

Erratic bowel habits...Irritable Bowel Syndrome is the most common cause. Google it and make some diet changes, and that should help. There's an OTC 'pill' for Irritable Bowel Syndrome made by Digestive Advantage that helps a LOT. Trust me, I know.

Erratic bowel habits Part 2,...Celiac Disease. That's when the body has an intolerance to wheat gluten, which is in, like, most of the foods we eat. That's serious, and needs to be medically diagnosed, as consumption of wheat gluten by an intolerant person can lead to intestinal damage. If you suspect Celiac, try avoiding all bread, pasta, and other wheat foods and see what happens. Read all ingredient labels, and avoid anything that says 'gluten' or 'wheat gluten'. Some stores sell gluten-free products.

Green poops...that's totally normal, especially if you eat stuff like black jellybeans, blueberries, Boo Berry cereal, lots of salad greens, spinach, etc.

Diarrhea...lactose intolerance is a common cause. Try avoiding milk, ice cream, half&half, etc, and see if it improves.

Period poops...it's normal for your poop to be different during that time, due to hormone differences.

Another thing that can cause these problems is a dairy allergy! If none of these suggestions help, and you're really suffering, consider asking to be tested for dairy allergy. It's not as common, but it IS a major cause.

I havent pooped in almost 2 1/2 weeks!!! Laxatives dont work at all! I have tried the mag. citrate or whatever the castor oil nothing works!! It has been like this for as long as I can remeber. The only time that I ever get any relief is the week before my period and I honestly lose up to 10 pounds every month in just poop its the only time I go!! Can anyone tell me whats up with that??

Dying to poop- I have the same problem.
The rest of the month I feel so horrible and bloated and fat. I can't poop AT ALL! Laxatives don't even work. It's horrible. I went to the doctor and she suggested I see a GI doc bc she suspects it could be IBS. I haven't gone to the GI doctor yet, but I'll let you know what happens.

Hi, I never had to go to the bathroom at all at school or work, or if I did it was very rare, I would just have to go when I got home. About a year ago I started to have to go 3-4 times or more at school, or if I was out somewhere, and rarely have to go at home. When I go sometimes it takes a while, and is in little pieces instead of 1 big one like usual, sometimes I would go so much at school my but started to hurt. And also sometimes I feel like I have to go but its just farts that feel like stuff is coming out but it is'nt. Is this normal?
