Apparently take a month to start really working but my nightmare has finally ended. I am taking Biofermin with every meal and having the best poops in years. I know the science is out on probiotics but I wanted to post this in case anyone hasn't tried it yet. Do it !

Hi, I'm taking Symprove probiotic on my 7 week of 12 weeks. A friend of mine told me to try it but can take up to 12weeks to see a difference. It works for her. So fingers crossed x

Good luck! Hope it works

Symproved worked for me after about 10 weeks and I had had 40+ years of constant diarrhoea

I think it is very important to share things that work for us as the information on the internet is spotty at best.

I've always had probiotics in the house in case of taking antibiotics, but on a whim thought I'd see if taking them would help my last bout of IBS.... amazingly helpful...and helping my son's problem too.
