Causes and Risks of Interstitial Cystitis

Header Cap

Interstitial Cystitis is a poorly understood disease with unknown causes. Although no bacteria or viruses (pathogens) have been found in the urine of Interstitial Cystitis sufferers, an unidentified infectious agent may be the cause. Others believe that Interstitial Cystitis occurs with ischemia (tissue death) or a deficiency of GAG in the epithelium. It may be an autoimmune disease, in which the immune system attacks healthy cells, perhaps following a bladder infection. Spasms of the pelvic floor muscles may also contribute to the Interstitial Cystitis symptoms. It is likely that several factors cause the condition.

Other conditions associated with Interstitial Cystitis include the following:

  • Asthma
  • Endometriosis
  • Food allergies
  • Hay fever (pollen allergy)
  • Incontinence
  • Irritable bowel syndrome
  • Lupus
  • Migraine
  • Rheumatoid arthritis
  • Sinusitis

The connection between Interstitial Cystitis and these conditions is not understood.
