    Background:

    • Interstitial cystitis (IC), also known as bladder pain syndrome, is a chronic condition characterized by pelvic pain and urinary urgency/frequency.
    • Despite its debilitating nature, IC is frequently underdiagnosed and misunderstood by medical professionals.

    Observation:

    • The etiology of IC remains elusive, contributing to diagnostic challenges.
    • Patients experience significant pain and a reduced quality of life due to the disease's pervasive symptoms.

    Findings:

    • This paper reviews the current understanding of IC's complex aetiology.
    • It details the diverse and painful symptoms associated with IC and their profound impact on daily living.
    • Available treatment options and supportive care guidelines are outlined.
