So strange seeing this post. I’ve been in remission with my UC since my initial diagnosis, but since my hysterectomy one year ago, the last few months I’ve been having these flares of what feels like an awful UTI each month around ovulation. Frequency, burning, etc. It was TERRIBLE this last month. I’ve seen a urologist and he thinks I have overactive bladder, but to me it sounds like I have interstitial cystitis. If it continues each month, it will literally ruin my life. I’ve been told to try Desert Harvest Aloe pills so I started them a few days ago. They supposedly have all the laxative/negative chemicals removed. Wish me luck.
Can you have sex though? I don't know what interstitial cystitis is. In my case my mucosa is inflamed and ulcers are clearly visible. I'm unable to have sex.
