A Trial of Intravesical Therapy for Interstitial Cystitis in Patients With Generalized Vulvodynia

Summary

In order to investigate whether the pain in women with vulvodynia may represent bladder origin pain, we will be performing a diagnostic test for interstitial cystitis (IC) in women with generalized vulvodynia. Those women with a positive test for IC, we will be performing a series of bladder treatments (instillations) for IC and checking symptoms throughout the trial to see if significant relief of vulvar pain can be obtained through treatment for IC.
