Phase N/A
  • Simplified (AI rewritten)
  • Technical (Original)

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a condition causing stomach pain and changes in bathroom habits. This study explores if *Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT)*, which involves transferring healthy bacteria from a donor's poop to a patient's gut, can help treat IBS. Participants in Thailand will be split into three groups. One group gets fake treatment (placebo) by mouth and enema. Another receives FMT by enema and placebo capsules. The last group gets FMT capsules and placebo by enema. The aim is to see if FMT works better than fake treatment and which method of giving FMT works best.

  • Participation involves different treatments, some with real FMT, others with a placebo.
  • You must be 18-70 years old with IBS, and not pregnant or have severe health issues.
  • The study may help find easier and cheaper ways to treat IBS.
