Going Through Too Much TP? Time To Talk To The Pelvic PT

April 2, 2020

There is a wide range of “normal” when it comes to emptying your bowels or bladder. Some people poop three times a day, and some, three times a week. Roughly 6-7 visits a day to pee is average; generally, every three to four hours is what we’d expect in a healthy, well-hydrated person. But a range of 4-10 times a day is alright, assuming you aren’t bothered by other symptoms.

It’s when you’re going to the bathroom every hour, half-hour, ten minutes, when you feel an urgent need to go all the darn time, when it’s taken over your life — that’s when it’s time to talk to a pelvic physical therapist. We specialize in treating urgency and frequency for both bowel and bladder conditions. There are a whole bunch of reasons why it might be happening, but know this: it doesn’t matter if you’ve had this issue for 2 months or 20 years. You don’t have to live your life in the loo. There are better places to hang in your home.
