Title: How often do you go?
Post by: haf1zur on 20 April 2012, 12:34
Not number two but number one

how often do you go?

recently its been 4-6 times a day, usually within 30 minutes of a cup of tea/coffee or a soft drink

its this too much? should i visit a doctor?

Tea and coffee contain caffeine.

Caffeine is a diuretic.

A diuretic makes you piss loads.

4-6 times a days sounds pretty normal. But if you worried then go see a Doctor to be on the safe side.

It will be the caffeine, this last Monday/Tuesday I was constantly going for a pizzle after having a week off work and not having a lot of caffeine in that time it was a shock to the system coming back to strong coffee at the push of a button  :laugh: My body still isn't used to the sudden caffeine intake and I've been 3 times already - though I have had 4 coffees  :grin:

I store it up like a camel. Once when I get up, then that will generally do until bedtime, unless I have a couple of beers.

That can not be normal I take more sh*ts than that a day. Although I know this guy who used to take one sh*t a week. Man that must of been bad. I've lowered the tone haven't I? Well starting a thread like this you were asking for it.

Depends the time of year and whether I'm working or not. In the summer at work I'll easily drink 5-8 litres of water per day, and I'll be using the toilet every 30 minutes or so for a quick splash.

In the winter on a day off I'll drink 2 litres or so, probably only visiting the toilet once every 4 or 5 hours. As mentioned already, tea and coffee are diuretics so you'll use the toilet more often. Diet also plays a big part obviously.
