IBS-C Treatments Not Working? What to Do Next

IBS-C Treatments Not Working? What to Do Next

If you've tried medications, diet changes, fiber supplements, or other therapies for IBS-C and still aren't feeling better, you're not alone.

Many people with irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C) feel frustrated when symptoms persist despite treatment. But when treatments don't work, it may be time to take a closer look at what's really going on.

In this episode of the Gastro Girl Podcast, Jacqueline Gaulin sits down with Dr. William D. Chey, world-renowned gastroenterologist at the University of Michigan and President of the American College of Gastroenterology, to discuss what patients should do when IBS-C treatments fail.

Dr. Chey explains why some patients continue to struggle, what conditions may be overlooked, and how to work with your healthcare provider to develop a more effective plan.

In this episode, you'll learn:

✅ Why IBS-C treatments may not always work as expected

✅ When it's time to rethink your diagnosis

✅ The role of pelvic floor dysfunction and other overlooked conditions

✅ Questions to ask your healthcare provider

✅ How to take the next step toward better symptom control

✅ Why you don't have to settle for ongoing symptoms

Whether you're newly diagnosed or have been living with IBS-C for years, this episode offers practical insights to help you move forward with confidence.
