A few years ago i kept getting a pubic hairs working their way through the urethra. It would still stick out so i would put it out with tweezers. I would know it was there because every time it moved when i would sit or stand it would hurt. So ever since i just trim my hair more and i don't get the hairs in my urethra anymore. But: I have a very mild case of Intersitial Cystitis (diagnosed long after having the hair problem) compared to others who have it. Every few months or so i feel like i have a very thin hair in my urethra, but it doesn't hurt as i sit, stand or walk anymore, i just feel something in there and it's annoying. It seems like it disappears, but then after some time it comes back. I've looked with lights and mirrors but i see nothing sticking out. I did have a cystoscopy and i would figure they might have seen it then but they reported nothing. And even after the procedure i still occassionally have that feeling. Do you think it's just part of Interstitial Cystitis? Or have you heard of others complaining about this before? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please be aware that all e-mail on this forum is archived and can be viewed at http://forums.obgyn.net/womens-health and is accessible to anybody on the internet including internet search engines.
