Abstract
Most patients with vulvodynia have a positive PST and urgency/frequency, indicating pain of bladder origin (IC). IC deserves far greater consideration in the differential diagnosis of patients with vulvodynia. This represents a dramatic change for the gynecologic paradigm of vulvodynia, which in many cases appears to be referred pain from the urinary bladder. Kahn BS, Tatro C, Parsons CL, and Willems JJ. Prevalence of interstitial cystitis in vulvodynia patients detected by bladder potassium sensitivity.
