What is IBS?

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a long-term gut condition that affects how your digestive system functions. It can cause symptoms like stomach pain and bloating, and changes in bowel habits such as constipation, diarrhoea, or both. IBS affects people differently, and symptoms can range from mild to disruptive.

What triggers IBS?

There isn’t one clear cause of IBS, but it’s often linked to increased gut sensitivity, irregular bowel muscle movement, and how the brain and gut communicate. Things like stress, infections, certain foods or hormone changes can also play a role.

What are the different types of IBS?

IBS is classified into four main types based on your bowel habits:

  • IBS-D (Diarrhoea-predominant):

  • IBS-C (Constipation-predominant):

  • IBS-M (Mixed type):

  • IBS-U (Unclassified):

Your doctor will consider these subtypes when recommending treatment, as different symptoms often call for different approaches.


Can I request IBS treatment in Australia without visiting a doctor in person?

Yes. Simply complete a short medical questionnaire on our website and schedule a video consultation. Our Australian-registered doctors will assess your symptoms and determine if IBS treatment is appropriate for you.


Once approved, can my prescription be sent to a pharmacy or delivered discreetly?

If approved, you can receive your prescription for IBS medication online via SMS/email or delivered discreetly to your door.
