Magnetic therapy for constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests if a type of magnetic therapy applied to the belly can improve constipation and other symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C). It aims to see if this drug-free treatment can help people who have had symptoms for at least 6 months.

This study tests whether a gentle electrical device that stimulates the vagus nerve can help relieve symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome. If you have IBS and are between 18 and 75, you may be able to join.
This trial tests whether combining a type of brain stimulation (repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation) with a probiotic tablet can help people with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome. It aims to improve symptoms by targeting both the brain and the gut.
This trial tests whether transferring stool bacteria to the gut (fecal microbiota transplantation) can reduce symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome with constipation. It may help by changing the gut microbiome, but you must meet safety and health requirements.
This trial tests whether a fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), which transfers healthy bacteria from a donor into your gut, can reduce severe irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms. FMT is being studied as a possible new treatment for people with IBS that hasn't improved with other treatments.
This trial tests a new treatment called SMT04 for people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), specifically the diarrhea or mixed types. It may help reduce symptoms like abdominal pain and changes in bowel habits.
