Frequently Asked Questions

If it lasts more than a few weeks, doesn't respond to dietary changes, or comes with pain, bleeding, or weight loss, it's worth a specialist evaluation.

Infections, IBS, IBD, celiac disease, thyroid disorders, and certain medications can all cause chronic diarrhea, which is why persistent symptoms deserve a proper workup.

Some are safer than others for regular use. We can help you find an approach that manages symptoms without relying on laxatives that aren't meant for long-term use.
