What Could Be Driving Your IBS?
Your IBS Subtype Quiz result will reveal your most likely underlying pattern helping you finally understand your symptoms and what to do next
Bile Acid
Frequent urgency or sudden diarrhea after eating, especially fatty or rich foods, may point to a Bile Acid subtype. This pattern often goes undetected but can be managed with specific strategies.
Post-Infectious
IBS that began after a bout of food poisoning or a stomach bug often fits the Post-Infectious pattern. Recognizing this can guide testing and targeted support for ongoing symptoms.
SIBO
Bloating that worsens as the day goes on, with variable bowel habits, may signal SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth). This common IBS subtype benefits from tailored therapies.
Dysbiosis/Methane
Persistent constipation, incomplete emptying, and gas can reflect a Dysbiosis or Methane-dominant IBS. Knowing this helps focus on microbiome repair and motility support.
Food Intolerance
If your symptoms flare with specific foods or unpredictable triggers, Food Intolerance may be your main driver. Identifying patterns can help you reintroduce foods safely over time.
Visceral Hypersensitivity
Pain or discomfort out of proportion to gut changes, often worsened by stress, can indicate Visceral Hypersensitivity. This type responds best to mind-gut therapies.
Hormonal
Fluctuations with your period, pregnancy, or menopause may reveal a Hormonal IBS subtype. Recognizing this connection guides both gut and hormone care.
