I had the Mona Lisa Touch! It was awesome. I highly recommend it to everyone. Soreness gone! Dryness gone! Sex life has improved greatly. I don't need lube. I am so thankful for this procedure. Do it!

Everyone get checked for bartonella!

I hope someone sees this comment. CHUG water. I have suffered with IC almost my entire life. I first noticed it when I was around 8 years old. I’m 30 now. Eventually I figured out that chugging large amounts of water in a short timespan is the ONLY thing that relieves the pain in a relatively short time. When I feel an episode coming on, I chug about 3 bottles of water back to back.. as quick as I can. Then I wait for about 30 minutes and feel the pain slowly melt away. Shortly after, I will pee and feel so much better. I’ve told my doctors this and have begged them to tell their other patients with IC. I hope this helps someone. ❤️❤️

I had 6 kids vaginally. I had the Mona Lisa 2 years ago. It worked very well. But I didn't keep up with the follow-up treatments. I just had my 1st Thermiva treatment today. Im also starting the Emsella chair treatment next week. I need all the help I can get.

When I take vitamin D,it helps 50,000 units,each week

Thank you. I’m one of the only men who has this problem!

😮 I thought it was going to much worse. This is t bad at all thanks for sharing

Thank you! I have a first time appointment next month. I honestly didn't know what to expect

Thanks doc.

I was given Gemtesa for the constant urgency to use the bathroom. Would you suggest stopping this before the test? I'm having this done next week. It has helped tremendously. I'm having a Cystocele and Hysterectomy in a few weeks. Thankyou!

I'm 55 and been going through menopause since I was 48 and have had worsening pain for years. I've been married 31 years but no longer have sex. The walls of my vagina hurt something terrible. I take otc Estroven for hot flashes, which helps the hot flashes quite a lot. Yes, I need to have an examination but i've had exams and they say, yeah that goes with menopause. I'm very tired of this aching, throbbing pain but it's hard for me to get into my doctor.

Definitely cried listening to your sincerity and ‘honored’ to be of help to your patients. I’m unable to reach you or your male ic specialist counterpart. I would love to have any assistance/ information of how I can carry out this healing process. Post operations and paired with urethral reconstruction from a stricture of 19 cm . Any correspondence would be appreciated

I’m getting it done in Feb. Interstitial Cystitis.

Thanks doc

My mother died of breast cancer. At 60, I am having vaginal atrophy. My gyno confirms I'm not a candidate for estrogen creams and lubricants aren't helping for intercourse, what other options do I have?

Just go to my clinic...

I need help my only option is pentosin that's it. Nothing here offers anything else. My life is miserable

Don’t recommend this treatment

Where are you located? Female ED is never talked about but men are talked about so much!

Anyone who suffers from this please consider St. John's Wort in conjunction with L-Arginine and/or L-Citrulline. L-Arginine can cause stomach upset for some, so L-Citrulline, which is converted to L-Arginine can be used instead, or each can be used in conjunction with one another.

Thank you for your info.❤

I have many of the symptoms but my urologists will not diagnose me with it. Please, can someone help me! It’s been 10 months and I want relief… I want to pee normally, PT says I’m not a candidate. What’s happening to me… 😭🤦🏻‍♀️

Help, please. I have to pee every 10 minutes for an 1,5h almost every day and it's always clear urine. When I test it, it's not a uti(even though I have them every two months. I've had 4 utis this year and I feel exhausted and hopeless

WHERE IS YOUR CLINIC?

High dose thiamin (thiamax) along with magnesium. Please, if you SUFFER from IC do yourself a favor and listen to Elliot Overton on EO Nutrition concerning thiamin deficiency.

All clinics should put out orientation videos like this especially for sensitive exams. Many of us patients are extremely apprehensive about someone gawking at us or even our urine sample and so forth. Having said all that, in the 21st century, why is capturing a urine sample so archaic?

Also, I just learned that drinking electrolyte water ( potassium chloride & Himalayan salt) with a sugar-free flavoring will help with this issue. Haven't tried it yet, but very curious to see the results...

I just had this done today! Wasn’t painful at all only thing is me peeing every few mins 😂I’m still having to do so even when it’s been 7hrs since I had it done.. do you have a video on what the kidneys looked like during the procedure

Sounds like me.

I am terrified but I need to do it tomorrow. In my opinion, it will be uncomfortable for a short amount of time. The catharar will be the hardest part, so if I can get the nurse to hold my hand, it would be great. Wish me luck 😅😅😅

Do you develop scaring? Since it's done so often during the year

Green tea and or Purslane

Did she have to be shaved?

I bite 2 vitamin e capsules and squeeze them in there and then rub coconut oil on the outside. It has worked great.

Almost 55 years old and have had bladder issues since the day I was born in 1969! I almost died as an infant with reflux to kidney and had surgery at Mayo clinic at 1 year old! So I been thru hell and back with all kinds of issues. I had IC for 15 years!!!! It’s HELL!!! I had my bladder stretch and did nothing! I originally in the beginning had chemicals very strong injected in the bladder and burned like hell! Made it worse!!! This is my recommendation if you have IC!! I lost 40 lbs which need to do! When I lost the weight my IC IMPROVED DRASTICALLY! Losing weight help me lose some inflammation! Not everyone need to lose weight but if you do do whatever you can and see it helps! I also take amitriptyline medication at night! I take benedryl “antihistamines” a lot! You can also drink water with baking soda to neutralize the urine! Stay away from caffeine and spicy foods! Medical cannabis can help! I don’t currently use it anymore but have and helps a lot!!!!! Mental health is important with chronic pain sufferers so please take care of yourself and love yourself! Cut out anything toxic in your life because stress is a big problem with IC!!!!! Hope this helps someone! Don’t give up!

As a male, this was the worst pain I’ve ever experienced! I will not be able to do it again, because it’s ridiculous.

Please help me out this problem i can't sit

I smell down there basically most of the time, if I do things and it gets better, it comes back after two days. Hoping something helps. I'm happy alone, stopped dating due to odor.

More vagina videos please i need it (prostate health)

I wish we wouldn't talk about sexual dysfunction in terms of couples. You can be single and recognize that something is wrong.

I’ve been thru it all. I did my own bladder injections with lidocaine sodium bicarbonate, and heparin 3 times a week. I’ve not had to see a urologist in over ten yrs. It really is about a persons diet & stress level. If I have a flare up I know exactly what I ate or drank to cause it.

No it hasn’t

I must have this. No infection or blood in urine, but the discomfort often wakes me up early. No real issues during the day. I’ve noticed ibuprofen or Tylenol before bed seems to help some but I don’t want to cause more internal damage doing that every day. I wonder if long term PPI use did this. Also in my teens and twenties I would be the last to need to pee. My friends noticed that. Maybe that’s coming back to haunt me. My urologist isn’t concerned at all. I guess I have to be clearer about the sleep disruptions next time I see him. He hasn’t suggested and tests, supplements, dietary restrictions etc.

Wow, this video is absolutely inspiring! Intimate wellness is such an important yet often overlooked part of overall health. I’ve always been passionate about topics like this, and your insights truly resonate with me. In fact, I’ve recently started my own journey to inspire others-posting two videos focused on helping people improve their lives through small, meaningful steps. Thank you for sharing this powerful message, Dr. Christi! 🤩🥰

This video was very helpful and I'm so happy that I found it cuz I just had surgery Monday and I was to move my pump on today Friday so I really appreciate this video Thank you
