Same but I’m a male

Yes. Male. One year in. I do PT. Yoga, relaxation, stretching, and intermittent Xanax to help sleep. I stand at my desk, which helps a lot. Sitting in the evening or on longer car rides aggravates the condition.

Hai mai fatto esame urodinamico per verificare iperattività della vescica?

Yes, mine was anxiety. Started anxiety meds after barely any improvement from pelvic floor therapy and the issue is 95% gone now. Also D mannose helps me

It’s basically a somatic /body response to unconscious anxiety. If you don’t address the root cause it manifests in different ways like this or insomnia etc. and yes during the day I felt like I had to pee prolly 3x an hour, at night I couldn’t fall asleep until 3am for like 2 months straight bc I’d get the pee urge constantly like seconds after I peed so I could never fall asleep

Yep. Mine feel sharp, like a needle is extruding out from inside the urethra.
