Summary

Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome (IC/BPS) is a common, chronic, and debilitating condition in women. Preliminary evidence suggests that IC/BPS pain can be reduced applying non-invasive repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to areas of the brain that regulate pelvic floor muscle activity. However, prior studies have examined rTMS in a very limited sample and have not examined changes in brain or pelvic floor muscle activity to determine the mechanism of rTMS for IC/BPS. This study is designed to directly address these limitations.

Conditions

  • Interstitial Cystitis
  • Bladder Pain Syndrome

Interventions

DEVICE

Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS)

Non-invasive magnetic stimulation of the brain

DEVICE

Sham Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (Sham-rTMS)

Device that appears identical to the active rTMS device, but does not produce any magnetic field and does not stimulate the brain.
