How is IBS Diagnosed?
The diagnosis of IBS typically involves a combination of medical history assessment, physical examinations, and ruling out other conditions, such as ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease. There are no specific tests that definitively diagnose IBS, but experiencing abdominal pain and changes in bowel habits that have persisted for at least three months can often indicate IBS.
To exclude other conditions, we might also recommend blood tests, stool tests, and sometimes colonoscopy, especially if symptoms are severe or if you have alarming signs such as weight loss or bleeding.

How Long Does It Take To Improve My IBS Symptoms?
In my journey to address the root cause of my chronic illness, I’ve collaborated with some of the most esteemed physicians across the nation. However, it wasn’t until I met Dr. Yuabova Marina that I experienced significant progress in overcoming a 15-year-old gastrointestinal condition that greatly impacted my quality of life. Within just 9 months under her care, I witnessed remarkable improvements. Dr. Marina’s expertise truly makes her the nation’s best-kept secret in healthcare, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to my loved ones and anyone seeking effective medical guidance.

IBS: Frequently Asked Questions
What dietary changes can help manage IBS symptoms?
- Increase fiber intake: For some, increasing fiber can help with constipation. However, for others, too much fiber may exacerbate bloating and gas.
- Low FODMAP diet: Many find relief by following a low FODMAP diet, which involves limiting foods that are high in certain fermentable carbohydrates.
- Gluten avoidance: Some individuals with IBS might have a gluten sensitivity and therefore benefit from avoiding gluten, even if they do not have celiac disease.
- Limiting dairy: For those who are lactose intolerant, reducing dairy can help manage bloating and diarrhea.
- Hydration: Drinking sufficient water is important, particularly if you have constipation-predominant IBS.
- Regular, balanced meals: Eating regular meals and avoiding large, fatty meals can help regulate digestion.
Can stress management techniques improve IBS symptoms?
