My hormones are really messed up right now. In fact, I've had 2 periods this month. UGH... So my IBS-C has been bad. Way more cramping this month.

Going to the doc in a few days for my yearly pap, so hopefully we can solve this hormone problem too.

PMS which triggers IBS symptoms start about two to four days before my actual period. The symptoms last into the first two days of my period, and then I'm fine except for major cramping. Without fail, I'll have an attack on the last day of my period, so now I take an Immodium or two that morning. I'm on the pill, which I like because it just makes the PMS and my period more predictable and regular.

I'm on the pill too - well, the patch - so I know exactly when my period is going to come. Usually, IBS-wise, I start feeling a little 'off' a few days before. And then, literally, the moment I start bleeding always coincides with a D attack. Oh yeah, that's the most fun time of the month for me! The D usually lasts a few days if I'm extra-good with the diet and eat lots of SF, longer if I'm a little lax. If I eat lots of SF before and take an immodium that morning I can usually lessen the severity of it, but I have yet to be able to prevent that lovely monthly attack

I would get it the day of. The minute I got my period, I would have D for half of the day. Ever since,I cut out dairy 8 months ago, I haven't really gotten it. Every other month or so, it happens. Hopefully, I wouldn't ever get it back!

I know that "F" is for Fairy, but I've been racking my brain trying to figure out what the "A" could be for....
