Thanks for any information. >> , I am sorry that you are having problems. It sounds like you may have interstitial cystitis with the VV. My I.C. and VV symptoms got worse too while on birtth control pills. An internest sounds like a good place to go where they would try to piece together what is going on with you, and if they were not able to, they should send you to the appropriate doctors. Has anyone explained to you why you are bleeding so heavily? It sounds like you are having hormonal problems, which seems to be common with most of us with VV and some of the others that have I.C. as well. You might want to try and find an urologist that is familiar with I.C. and find out if you have that condition too. Good luck to you Darlene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
