IBS is ruining my life.
Posted , 5 users are following.
I was recently diagnosed with IBS and at first they told me it was made by my period, so not only do I have really bad periods I now had IBS tied to it. The doctor told me that I should just buy over the counter medication and that was that. A few months have passed and now my IBS is constant and it primarily makes me cramp up very painfully and vomit but its the vomiting thats taking it out of me, I throw up at the drop of a hat and its hurting my muscles and honestly making me really depressed. Does anyone have any methods to take the edge off or stop most of it?

My ibs is made worse by hormones. I had the depo contraceptive injection and it made it so much better. It keeps your hormones regular and you don't have a time of the month.

Now the IBS is more come and go and my monthly cycle is better. I rarely have severe flare ups. Stress brings on my symptoms. I take Buscopan and Nurofen and it helps to reduce the pain.

Depending on what you have taken for your IBS and if it is still attached to your period. Ask yourself how long it has been to you last visiting your Doctor.
If He feels over counte medications will work and you have followed His suggestions for some extended period, you need to see your Doctor
Some women have cramps when on their period, I also understand some will also be sick at this time.
This could be caused by Anxiety.
