Hi Jennifer,

I have been diagnosed with both ic & endo. About ten years ago, I was experiencing frequent bladder infections. I have been taking Cipro, an antibiotic for the infections. Two years later, I was diagnosed with endo. I have been taking b/c pills for the pain. Currently, the b/c pills have not been helping the pain, so I discontinued taking them and I am now trying accupunture. Hopefully, this will be another alternative for me. I have heard there are many individuals with both i.c. and endo, our immune system is not working so well. I also have had a c-section fifteen years ago and believe it started all of my problems. Good Luck-keep us posted.
