Hey everybody, is there a difference between the symptoms of endometriosis and IBS? I looked it up on internet while waiting for my doctor appointment in 1 month and I'm afraid I might be having IBS too

Hi @Gloglo52

Yes, there is a difference between the two but you could also have both. Here are some Carenity resources for you to read: Endometriosis and Irritable Bowel Syndrome testimonial

I will tag a few other of our members, they may have experienced similar symptoms and may have some advice:

@tbintliff @crazylove @Magmil84 @Maryjoanne @Bkeilholtz @LauraLloyd @Jro4715

Do you also experience symptoms of IBS? Are they the same as your endometriosis symptoms? What do you do to cope?

Take care everyone,

Lizzi
