As a human being, I tend to eat everyday.

But as a general rule of thumb if you use up the pan about 3 to 4 days of the week, then you need to change it every 6 months.

From my understanding it’s about use. The non-stick coating will start to flake off, and you don’t want to eat the stuff.
Using metal utensils on non-stick pans is a terrible idea for this exact reason as well- they’re really hard on the coating.
