MyGut™

A Complete IBD Management App  

Managing Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. MyGut™ is a free, easy-to-use inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) app created by Crohn’s and Colitis Canada to help you track symptoms, monitor flareups, understand patterns, and manage your health with confidence. 

Living with IBD is challenging, and some days are harder than others. MyGut is designed to make things feel a little easier. With a personalized dashboard, simple daily tracking tools, and trustworthy resources, MyGut helps you feel supported and informed, one day at a time. Whether you’re searching for a place to track symptoms, a way to monitor flare-ups, or a single place to keep all your health information organized, MyGut is here to support you.

Why MyGut? 

MyGut lets you record your daily symptoms and overall well-being, including pain, bowel movements, washroom urgency, sleep, stress, and anything else that affects your day. Over time, it’ll become your personal GI symptom daily diary, helping you see how your symptoms change, evolve, and respond to your routines, treatments, and lifestyle.

Check In with Yourself 

Some days, certain symptoms speak louder than others. MyGut includes quick, helpful questionnaires designed to give you a clearer understanding of how you’re doing and where your health may be heading. 

These tools help you notice changes early and support you in navigating your condition with more clarity: 

  • Flare Checker: A quick check-in to help you gauge whether your symptoms may signal a flare. 
  • Quality of Life Check-Ins: A bit longer assessments that help you reflect on how you’re doing physically and emotionally. 

Everything you complete stays safely in your private dashboard, ready for you whenever you need it, especially on days when remembering the details can be difficult.
