A bidet is no cure for people with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), but it is much better to use when you have it than using toilet paper. If you have IBS and use the bathroom frequently, then using toilet paper too much is going to cause irritation. Some people opt for flushable wipes, but they do serious damage to sewer systems.  A bidet is the best option as it gently cleans and also gives soothing relief to people with IBS.
