Question 1

i have stage 4 endometriosis with bowel adhered to uterus. i am on the pill but it has not helped the pain. i have constant pelvic and bladder pain everyday and constipation. is there any hope? will i ever be pain free?

Accepted Answer

Endometriosis Meds: Medications like depot-lupron with add-back therapy are worth discussing with your gynecologist.  Surgery if necessary may also improve your pain.

Question 2

how can you differentiate between endometriosis, which causes bleeding in the rectum and bladder, and other diseases of these two organs?

Accepted Answer

Evaluation: It is uncommon but certainly possible for endometriosis to invade deeply into the bladder or rectum. A cystoscopy of the bladder and a colonoscopy would be very useful to help figure that out.

Question 3

can endometriosis cause bladder problems?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Endometriosis can get on the bladder and cause bladder pain and painful urination. Interstitial cystitis (ic) can also cause those symptoms. So sometimes it can be a little difficult to figure out. Starting with some urine testing, some blood work, maybe a cystoscopy would help to get you answers.

Question 4

pain in rt ovary, bladder&colon. with the suspicion of endometriosis can it be the cause even with no flow? rt lower side is worse with full bladder??

Accepted Answer

Endometriosis: can occur without menstrual irregularities. A Pelvil ultrasound / MRI are indicated usually followed by a biopsy. The treatment should be "in the hands of" a  GYNECOLOGIST familiar with the medical /surgical treatment of the disorder!
Hope this is helpful!

Question 5

will endometriosis on my bladder and ureters cause problems? i had a ct scan and things are ok- but worried about future. surgery could not remove it.

Accepted Answer

Possibly: If surgery is not able to remove endometriosis from a vital pelvic structure then hormonal suppression would be very helpful.

Question 6

does it still cause pain when having endometriosis even with no flow?dr suspect it&i have pain all over abdomen (bladder,bowel,ovaries,kidneys,ribs)?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Endometriosis induced pain comes at any time in the menstrual cycle occasionally  relieved by the actual flow. Your MD will probably consider either a Laparoscopy or a therapeutic medical trial course.(Rx.)

Question 7

does covid cause bladder pain?

Accepted Answer

: No

Question 8

what causes bladder pain in men? have no stones or infection?

Accepted Answer

: A condition called intersticial cystitis is one cause. But the main need may be is to determine if pain really originates in the bladder. Vague low pelvic pain, often including the rectal area, the testicles and the penis often is due to the chronic pelvic pain syndrome, once considered a form of non-infectious prostatitis. Google it for more information and see a urologist. Good luck.

Question 9

what causes gall bladder pain after the gall bladder is removed?

Accepted Answer

Post surgery care: There are several possibilities, including passing a gallstone from the lower duct. If your pain is not controllable with your prescribed pain regimen, okay to call in to your surgical team. Be well.

Question 10

bladder pain caused by having sex ? is it something serious ? what should i do ?

Accepted Answer

Post-coital cystitis: I'm sure you can imagine the motion of sex pushing bacteria into your bladder so we recommend emptying your bladder as soon as romance allows to flush out those bacteria. Post-coital or honeymoon cystitis is a common name for bladder infection due to sex. Of course, if unprotected, pain could also be due to sexually transmitted disease so best to go see your family doc for evaluation & treatment.
