unusual bowel movement

Posted by davidbrandi01 @davidbrandi01, Jul 27, 2025

I am cancer free now. 7 months after RP. two readings at 3 and 6 months both < .01 . Not wearing pads or diapers. Some dripping occasionally , coughing and laughing mostly. Playing 18 holes of golf with no leakage. Here's the question. My bowel movements are pretty regular however wiping my self doesn't seem to remove all the stool material. My point is I have noticed 'poop" stains in my underpants where as i never had before. Any comments would be appreciated

Wet wipes can solve your problems.

Unfortunately, they can’t be put in the toilet, so disposing of them is equal to the problem women have with their period.

Actually Walmart sells Cool mint extra large WET WIPES 3-pack for just a bit over $4.00. They are marked as flushable I have been using them for over a year now. Sometimes I need to use 5-6 wipes at one sitting in addition to Tpaper. Never had a backup or clog. They are a godsend their brand is equate.

Cool Mint?….hmmm….now that you’ve opened that can of worms, what other ‘flavors’ do they come in?🤣
You gotta KNOW that the marketing people really burned the midnight oil coming up with that one!!

Hi Phil, honestly they are a bit refreshing down there. Same as dude wipes but a fraction of the cost. DUDE WIPES now that’s clever marketing, I think they come in Cool Mint as well.😂

I hope they develop the drug soon. I’m on my second recurrence. 🥺. I’ve been dealing with this stuff for 20 years now. Thanks for posting the information, Jeff.

I’ve been dealing with it for 15 years and I’ve had four reoccurrences but have been kept clear of issues with it growing for six years. The drugs have really worked. Keep hope alive!!

As you mentioned, I want a drug that can help when someone has a reoccurrence while on ADT and an ARSI. I have heard of at least two different studies going on in this area, probably more, it’s difficult to know exactly what’s going on since people are working on it around the world.
