normal stool
Unremarkable bowel movement
Normal stool refers to feces that indicate healthy digestion—typically brown, formed but soft, and passed without straining.
Doctors use the term when assessing bowel health: The patient reported normal stool after changing her diet.
What counts as normal varies somewhat by individual, but generally means regular, comfortable bowel movements without blood, mucus, or unusual color.
