Interstitial Cystitis (IC) is part of a spectrum of diseases called painful bladder syndrome.¹ When commercially available drugs fail, patients and providers look to compounding to find a solution that works for individual needs.
Signs & Symptoms
Interstitial cystitis signs and symptoms include:
- Pain in your pelvis or between the vagina and anus in women
- Pain between the scrotum and anus in men (perineum)
- Chronic pelvic pain
- A persistent, urgent need to urinate
- Frequent urination, often of small amounts, throughout the day and night (up to 60 times a day)
- Pain or discomfort while the bladder fills and relief after urinating.
- Pain during sexual intercourse.
When left untreated, Interstitial Cystitis (IC) can lead to a number of complications including reduced bladder capacity, sexual intimacy problems, chronic pain and interrupted sleep.
