CNN —How often one should poop has been a hot topic, with experts saying the numerical range partly depends on several personal factors.
During the day, most healthy people pee about six to eight times, said Dr. Jamin Brahmbhatt, a urologist at Orlando Health and CNN contributor.
“For most, it’s reasonable to need to pee every (three to four) hours during the day,” Brahmbhatt added via email.
There are several other minimally invasive treatments available, experts said, including medications, bladder Botox injections and types of nerve stimulation, Kim said.
Unfortunately there aren’t as many treatments for underactive bladder, Kim said, except for self-administered intermittent catheterization, long-term catheterization and sacral neuromodulation, a bladder pacemaker.
