Irritable bowel syndrome, or IBS, is one of those health conditions that can be difficult to talk about. And when you are struggling with things like diarrhea, constipation, gas, and bloating, it’s completely understandable. But there are still things doctors want you to know about IBS, including the fact that it is not as uncommon as it may seem.
In fact, IBS and all its uncomfortable symptoms, affect between 25 to 45 million Americans of all ages. And two out of every three of those people are women. So if you’ve got it, there’s a good chance you know someone else who does, too.
