Description
Here, broadcaster Steph McGovern joins Vogue to discuss her experience of IBS, explaining how it’s affected her daily life – both physically and mentally – how she manages the symptoms, and how we can tackle the taboo by talking about it. Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common condition of the digestive system and affects about 15% of people in the UK (twice the number of women as men). With symptoms ranging from stomach pain, cramps, bloating, diarrhoea, faecal incontinence, constipation, flatulence, fatigue and nausea, IBS is not a barrel of laughs – but luckily Vogue and Steph both are, so tune in for one of Taboo Talk’s most frank and funny chats.RESOURCESAdvice on IBS and related products at Boots: www.Boots.Com/ibs-relief-productsLivi Online GP Health Service at Boots: www.boots.com/healthhub/managing-pain/online-gp(T&Cs: Subject to availability.
