Do you change toothbrushes often?
I often have discussions with my friends about how often should you change your toothbrush, I usually change mine every week and a half - 2 weeks and they think I'm crazy

Every week?
I used to change once a month, but now I wait a bit longer.

The American Dental Association recommends changing tooth brushes every 3-4 months. Tha hell are you doing every 2 weeks?
As long as you don't let them get all gross and crusty by not cleaning it properly, I don't see the issue.

I could care less what they say, I'll continue to change my toothbrush every 2 weeks or so

"Toothbrushes may even have bacteria on them right out of the box since they are not required to be sold in a sterile package."

You have to change them every 2-3 months.
1 month if you buy cheap ones

You're all exaggerating
I change mine whenever I lose it, which is never less than 8 months

Sis every week is a bit excessive. I change mine every 2-3 months.
