Background. Studies have shown that women are more likely to have irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and more women seek healthcare because of IBS than men.Aim. We wanted to examine the natural history of IBS and dysmenorrhea in women over a 10-year period and to assess the change in IBS after menopause.Method. A population-based postal study. A questionnaire was mailed to the same age- and gender-stratified random sample of the Icelandic population aged 18–75 in 1996 and again in 2006.Results. 77% premenopausal women had dysmenorrhea in the year 1996 and 74% in 2006. 42% of women with dysmenorrhea had IBS according to Manning criteria in the year 2006 and 49% in 1996. 26% of women with dysmenorrhea had IBS according to Rome III 2006 and 11% in the year 1996. In 2006 30% women had severe or very severe dysmenorrhea pain severity. More women (27%) reported severe abdominal pain after menopause than before menopause 11%. Women without dysmenorrhea were twice more likely to remain asymptomatic than the women with dysmenorrhea. Women with dysmenorrhea were more likely to have stable symptoms and were twice more likely to have increased symptoms.Conclusion. Women with IBS are more likely to experience dysmenorrhea than women without IBS which seems to be a part of the symptomatology in most women with IBS. IBS symptom severity seems to increase after menopause.

Background and aims. The appropriate diagnosis of irritable bowel syndrome is critical due to its association with impaired quality of life and high health care costs. We aim to explore the proportion of subjects with irritable bowel syndrome by the Rome IV criteria at a tertiary care hospital and compare them with previous diagnostic criteria. Material and methods. We conducted a cross-sectional descriptive study in a tertiary care hospital located in Buenos Aires. There were included to the consecutive adult patients who consulted for abdominal disorders and in whom an organic pathology had been excluded. Subjects completed a gastrointestinal symptom questionnaire and the proportion of patients with IBS, according to Roma IV criteria, was compare with the proportion of those who met the previous criteria (Manning, Rome I, II and III). Results. Of 178 patients included, 58% met the diagnosis criteria for IBS using the Rome IV criteria. Of these, 98% were also Rome III positive, 76.7% IBS Rome II positive, 93% IBS Rome I positive and 99% IBS Manning positive. The agreement was very good with Rome III (kappa = 0.87), good with Rome I (kappa = 0.76) and good, but lower with Rome II (kappa = 0.73) and Manning (kappa = 0.66). Conclusions. Good diagnostic agreement was established between Rome IV and the previous IBS criteria, except with Rome II and Manning, which were lower.
