Hi there, I'm new to this group. I have IBS c symptoms. Had anyone tried poopari spray or similar options? It is so embarrassing to have your family or spouse walk into the restroom after having an IBS flare. Any suggestions?

Members shared creative and practical solutions for managing bathroom odor during IBS flares, from commercial products like Poo-Pourri to a DIY recipe using rubbing alcohol, essential oils, and liquid soap that is much cheaper and helpful when out and about. Several members recommended layering strategies, including exhaust fans, vinegar sprays, Febreze, lavender toilet hangers, and even baby powder in underwear to feel more confident. A recurring theme was the blend of humor and solidarity, with members joking about blaming the dog while also validating how stressful and isolating bathroom anxiety can feel.

Hi, I've just made my own with 1tsp of rubbing alcohol or vodka 15 drops of essential oil, 1 TSP liquid soap and topped up with boiled water. Shake before use. Much cheaper than commercial variety. Helps me feel less stressed when out and about. Keep a small plastic spray in my handbag
