- Many women experience chronic pelvic pain or symptoms of recurrent UTIs. Sometimes these symptoms may go undiagnosed and it is actually a condition known as Interstitial Cystitis (IC). In this video, I explain the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options for Interstitial Cystitis and explain the difference between IC and UTIs. Be sure to watch until the end for more treatment options for this painful bladder syndrome.
As always, I hope that you find this video interesting and informative. If you think someone else may benefit from this information feel free to share this video or comment in the comment section. I look forward to meeting more of you and answering any questions you may have. Thanks for joining and have a blessed day!

Thanks for the valuable info, Dr. Marie!
No “up-speak” polishes the presentation.
Glad it was helpful!
Hello all, I was diagnosed with interstitial cystitis for many years. Nothing helped, not the traditional treatment, not the antibiotics. I´ve been on vaginal HRT (hormone replacement therapy, estrogen) for 6 months now and the pain stopped within the first few days. Please note that postmenopause can be the reason for those symptoms.
This is very informative, very well done thank you Doctor!
Thank you! I hope it helps.
Doc im confusing too because yesterday im going to hospital to check up but the result ok..my urine mild..why?im take my midicine why still paine and burning my urethra and my lift side its so hurt doc..im so depressed my illness..
I was told years ago I most likely have IC. Forward to me now post menopausal. I have what I thought were two UTIs recently. I went to a walk in clinic both times. The urinalysis showed I had a UTI however both times the cultures came back negative and the doctor said I could stop the antibiotics if I wanted to. I even had a lot of bleeding with this last episode. I’m so confused! Can you have severe bleeding in your urine with IC?
Mild changes in cyetitis mentioned in my ctscan report,whenever i cough lower right abdominal pain i experience ...i have constipation too .
🙏🏼
I have Crohn+IC how can I treat it? Uro doesn't help me even they said no antibiotics I am dying keeping pee always even I don't need+so itchy there down spicy
Thank you ❤❤❤
Thanks for watching! ❤️
@@dr.lindsaymarie I dink lemon water daily. I thought lemons were good for the bladder & urine? You mentioned it was a bladder irritant. I’m confused now.
Thankyou ❤
Thanks for watching!
What about the symptom of burning sensation (after urination) while standing/walking/sitting/lying down)? The onset of the burning sensation is rather sudden.
Combined with a positive leucocytes test but negative nitrite?
Could these two factors point to IC as well?
Multiple antibiotics just got me a relief over the last 3-4 months and the sudden onset of burning sensation comes and goes.
My last urinalysis at my doctors showed multiple bacteria (small amount of streptococcus, and a "mixture of fecal bacteria"). My doctor seemed to be irritated by my symptoms though. Even with D-Mannose, L-Methionin, ibuprofen as a self therapy I still feel burning pain. :/
Any ideas?
Burning can come from both UTIs and IC. If you feel your symptoms are not resolving with antibiotics, you could discuss with your doctor about getting a referral to see a urologist for further testing and diagnosis of your bladder symptoms. 🙏🏼
