it probably won't help. there are lots of aspects of the procedure that could irritate ibs - the sudden hormonal shifts, uterine cramping (especially if medically-induced), antibiotics/other medication, the physical procedure itself (if surgical), and general stress. but all that being said, i wouldn't think that ibs would weigh enough against all the reasons why you would choose to have one. i can only imagine how tough this is - best of luck, and i hope it all works out alright.
