Anyone have bladder endometriosis?

[Sky342]

I’ve been having severe ripping pain in my lower middle abdomen every time I go to the toilet. I have had many UTI in the past and this feels different, at times it is stingy but I have got it checked and there’s no sign of a infection. Does anyone have this rolling feeling after going for a pee? I just want to know if it sounds like endometriosis on my bladder. Xx

Hi,

It might actually be a condition called interstitial cystitis. This causes lots of pain and can be triggered by having a lot of UTI's that are not being treated properly.

Are you frequently going to the toilet? Is there blood in your urine? is the pain dull or sharp?

It could potentially be a cyst on an ovary too.

In the mean time - Ibuprofen and drink plenty of water. I fully recommend a herbal supplement called d-mannose (advised by my urologist) if you read up about it lots of people now take this instead of antibiotics as it stopped bacteria from sticking to the urethra walls,

Unfortunately IC cannot be identified unless you have a biopsy of the bladder.
