Very uncomfortable constant pressure to urinate
I have been worked up for urinary tract issues and nothing has been found. Yet, I constantly feel pressure at the urethra to urinate. I am wondering if the problem is pressure on the clitoris or damage to the clitoris. I would love to know if anyone has explored this problem and gotten a diagnosis. Thank you.

notgonnadoit23, Have you had a cystoscopy done? I wonder if you have Interstitial Cystitis. It mimicks a
UTI with pressure and frequent urination.
A Urologist would have to diagnose this for you and it would show up in a cystoscopy.
Blessings & Prayers.....
Yes. I had a CT scan of the whole abdominal area - no structural problems found. I had a cystoscopy and the inside tissue of the bladder and urethra is all normal. I was examined by a urogynecologist who said it is not a urinary tract issue because when she pressed on the bladder and urethra, I had no pressure. But when she pressed on the uterus, I felt the pressure a lot. She thought it could be scar tissue from my 2 C-Sections, possibly pulling on the abdominal wall. I’m not sure.
After she pressed on the uterus, the discomfort was AWFUL that night. Tight jeans make it worse
Thank you for responding.
Is there pain in your lower abdomen, uterine, area?
