Hormonal fluctuations that occur right before menstruation can affect not just the uterus, breasts and ovaries, but also the rest of the body. Symptoms such as acne, nausea, diarrhea and rectal cramping can all be due to the change in hormones. The IBS probably makes your intestinal tract more sensitive to the reaction. Eat a simple diet, and drink lots of water.
