Default Poll on a very moving experience:-)

Constipation. Everybody has it but nobody wants to talk about it. Except there is this one guy who...oh, never mind

But enough of the introductory levity! And stop that self conscious snickering in the back row! This is a serious matter.

A simple question- If mild constipation is defined as less than seven but more than four bowel movements per week (i.e. once every one to two days) and moderate is defined as two to four per week (i.e. once every two to four days) and severe is defined as less than two per week (i.e. more than four days between), then...

Before the age of twenty-one would you rate yourself as having been: mild, moderate, severe, or none of the above (i.e. not constipated)?

I myself must choose moderate. What about yourself? Private replies are welcome.
