Is it okay that I only have a bowel movement every couple of days? I’ve heard medical professionals say that a daily morning routine is standard, but I’ve never been able to do that. This has been my pattern since I was a kid. For context, I’m a 21-year-old guy.

As long as this is your usual routine, you’re okay. You should only be concerned if your typical habits suddenly shift. Generally speaking, ‘normal’ can range from twice daily to a couple of times per week.

It’s completely alright if that’s what’s regular for you.

Anything from once a week to seven times a day can be seen as normal, provided it’s consistent for you. The real issue is when your established pattern changes.
