Whoa, no, this is not a symptom of IBS. Hair loss can sometimes be caused by stress or general illness, so if you've been quite sick with IBS there could be an indirect tie in. But hair loss can also signal serious problems, so I would see your doctor about this. Also - have you started any new medications that could have hair loss as a side effect? Or had hormonal fluctuations (pregnancy, birth control pills, etc.)?

Best,
Heather
