I have had 6 injections of the BCG . Dr. Prescribe numbing cream I get at pharmacy I can't say I have had any pain other than pressure when voiding and very little bleeding.

Please don't take this question to be a sexist issue. I'd just like to figure out what's going on with my BCG pain. So, I wonder, could it be that women have less pain from BCG just because their unitary tract is not as long and doesn't have the prostate along the way? When my doctor said his other BCG patients haven't reported the same pain I have had, could gender have an influence?
