i have some issues w/IBS & PMS. when im about to get my period, i notice i can get away with alot more triggers then usual. as soon as i get my period, it's like i dont even have IBS (c) anymore cuz im finally able to go! but as soon as my period is done, i get C again--which sucks! it's like my period is some type of laxative for my bod and when it's over, i get the opposite effect.

i didnt know there was a difference between the first 14 days and the last 14 days. i thought it all went together. that article you read, did it offer any suggestions for dealing?

if you're looking for PMS remedies, i think the tried-and-true ones of hot pads and pepp.tea will get you by. i stopped taking midol bc some of the additives aggrivate my tum so im stuck for solutions as well. and i get really bad PMS--really emotional up-and-down. keep me posted if you get any good replies on tips!! id love to know some~take care!
