About IBS
IBS is the most common disorder of the digestive system and also one of the most common reasons for visits to GPs.
IBS is thought to affect up to one in five people at some stage in their life, and it generally develops between 20 and 30 years of age but can begin to manifest in early teens, after pregnancy or after a disruptive event like food poisoning. Around twice as many women are affected as men. (Sources: NHS & Core Charity UK).
