IBS D - Bowel movement without much warning

4 Replies

Hi,

Sometimes when I'm out I get the need for bowel movement without much warning. What underwear/protection would people recommend wearing just incase I don't get to a toilet in time?

I've used adult pads. Can get them from Boots or online under incontinence products.

I used to use pads but I found if I had an accident they didn't contain it and soiled my clothes the pants are better and because I feel less anxious it hardly happens now.
