Do I Have IBS? Quiz
Are you often dealing with stomach pain, bloating, or strange changes in your bowel habits? If yes, you might be wondering if you have Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). IBS is a common digestive condition that affects the large intestine. While it’s not dangerous, it can be uncomfortable and interfere with your daily life.
If you're unsure whether your symptoms could be IBS, this quick quiz can help guide you in the right direction. It’s not a medical diagnosis, but it can help you decide if it’s time to talk to a doctor.
What Is IBS?
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a condition that causes stomach pain, bloating, gas, and changes in how often you go to the bathroom. Some people with IBS have diarrhea, others have constipation, and some switch between both. The cause isn’t exactly known, but it’s believed to be linked to things like stress, food sensitivities, or how the gut works.
IBS is very common, especially in people under 50, and affects women more than men. It can come and go and often gets worse with stress or after eating certain foods.
Common Symptoms of IBS
You might have IBS if you experience:
- Ongoing belly pain or cramping
- Bloating or gas, especially after meals
- Constipation or diarrhea — or both
- A feeling that you haven’t completely emptied your bowels
- Relief from pain after going to the bathroom
