What Causes Irregular Bowel Movements?
Hi, I have very irregular bowel movements. I eat vegetables and salads regularly and also take a fiber supplement. I can go 3 -4 days without a movement then when it does occur it is not a lot. I have noticed that if I eat beef, mostly steaks but not so much hamburger or beans, refried or black I will have diaherria. My father died of colon cancer and the last colonoscopy I had was in 2014 and everything was ok. Should I make an appointment with my doctor to get it checked?
