ask: I have frequent bowel movements every day. Sometimes it is loose but most of the time it is like a regular bowel movement. I average 10 a day but when I am more active I can have as many as 28 a day. This is really tiring me out. I have not lost weight.

I am not a big eater and stay away from high fat foods as much as possible as well as hard liquor, oranges and high fiber foods. It seems the more active I am, the worse it gets. The heat also seems to really ramp it up as well.

Hi Anon,
Welcome to EmpowHER and thanks for your question. Seems to me you might be taking something to lose weight. That might be the cause of so many Bowel Movement a day. The norms is 1 a day. The general range is 3 times a day to 3 times a week. If you are not on any meds. It's important to see your doctor. This can be a sign of a serious condition.
Here is a link to help.
