1 Best Homeopathy treatment for Irritable Bowel Syndrome

No clear diagnostic markers exist for IBS, thus, the diagnosis of the disorder is based on clinical presentation. In 2006, the Rome II criteria for the diagnosis of IBS were revised.

Moreover, Throughout the world, about 10–20% of adults and adolescents have symptoms consistent with IBS, and most studies show a female predominance.

Severity of symptoms varies and can significantly impair quality of life, resulting in high health care costs. Advances in basic, mechanistic, and clinical investigations have improved our understanding of this disorder and its physiologic and psychosocial determinants. 

The precise cause of IBS isn’t known. Factors that appear to play a role include:

• Muscle contractions in the intestine i.e.:

  The walls of the intestines are lined with layers of muscle that contract as they move food through your digestive tract. Contractions that are stronger and last longer than normal can cause gas, bloating and

• . Weak intestinal contractions can slow food passage and lead to hard, dry stools.

• Nervous system i.e.:

  Abnormalities in the nerves in your digestive system may cause you to experience greater than normal discomfort when your abdomen stretches from gas or stool. constipation.

• Severe infection i.e.:

  IBS can develop after a severe bout of diarrhoea (gastroenteritis) caused by bacteria or a virus

• Early life stress i.e.:

  People exposed to stressful events, especially in childhood, tend to have more symptoms of IBS.

• Changes in gut microbes i.e.:

  Examples include changes in bacteria, fungi and viruses, which normally reside in the intestines also play a key role in health.

Triggered factors are:

• Food i.e.:

  The role of food allergy or intolerance in IBS isn’t fully understood. Additionally, A true food allergy rarely causes IBS.

• Stress i.e.:

  Most people with IBS experience worse or more-frequent signs and symptoms during periods of increased stress. But while stress may aggravate symptoms, it doesn’t cause them. 

Risk factor ofIrritable bowel syndrome (IBS)

 Many people have occasional signs and symptoms of IBS. But you’re more likely to have the syndrome if you:

• Are young- IBS occurs more frequently in people under age 50.
• Are female- In the United States, IBS is more common among women. Additionally, Estrogen therapy before or after menopause also is a risk factor for IBS.
• Have a family history of IBS- Genes may play a role, as may shared factors in a family’s environment or a combination of genes also environment.
• Have anxiety, depression or other mental health issues- A history of sexual, either physical or emotional abuse also might be a risk factor. 

The pathogenesis of IBS is poorly understood, although roles of abnormal gut motor and sensory activity, central neural dysfunction, psychological disturbances, mucosal inflammation, stress, also luminal factors have been proposed. 

The signs and symptoms of IBS vary but are usually present for a long time. The most common include:

• Abdominal pain, either cramping or bloating that is related to passing a bowel movement
• Changes in appearance of bowel movement
• Changes in how often you are having a bowel movement
• Other symptoms that are often related include bloating, increased either gas or mucus in the stool.

More-serious signs and symptoms include:

• Weight loss
• Diarrhea at night
• Rectal bleeding
• Iron deficiency anemia
• Unexplained vomiting
• Difficulty swallowing
• Persistent pain that isn’t relieved by-passing gas or a bowel movement.

There’s no test to definitively diagnose IBS. Your doctor is likely to start with a complete medical history, physical exam and tests to rule out other conditions, such as celiac disease.

After other conditions have been ruled out, your doctor is likely to use one of these sets of diagnostic criteria for IBS:

• Rome criteria:

These criteria include abdominal pain and discomfort lasting on average at least one day a week in the last three months, associated with at least two of these factors: Pain and discomfort are related to defecation, the frequency of defecation is altered, or stool consistency is altered.

• Type of IBS:

For the purpose of treatment, IBS can be divided into three types, based on your symptoms: constipation-predominant, diarrhoea-predominant or mixed.

Your doctor will also likely assess whether you have other signs or symptoms that might suggest another, more serious, condition.

These signs and symptoms include:

• Onset of signs and symptoms after age 50
• Weight loss
• Rectal bleeding

• Fever

• Nausea or recurrent vomiting
• Abdominal pain, especially if it’s not related to a bowel movement, or occurs at night

• Diarrhoea that is persistent or awakens you from sleep

• Anemia related to low iron

If you have these signs or symptoms, or if an initial treatment for IBS doesn’t work, you’ll likely need additional tests. 

• Inflammatory bowel disease as in Crohn’s disease (ulcerative colitis)
• Intestinal pseudo-obstruction
• Abuse of medications such as laxatives or bowel binders
• Lactose intolerance
• Psychiatric disorders (such as depression, anxiety or somatization disorder)
• Infections of the digestive tract
• Malabsorption syndromes (such as celiac disease or pancreatic insufficiency)
• Endocrine disorders (such as hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, diabetes or Addison’s disease)
• Certain rare endocrine tumors (such as gastrinoma or carcinoid tumors)
• Carcinomas of the intestine
