What causes frequent urination with lower back and pelvic pain during peri-menopausal phase?
Patient: I have constant urination with some lower back and pelvic pain. My Doctor did bloodwork which was all normal. I am in peri-menopausal. She thought that I may have an overactive bladder but I would like to examine this a little further before taking any medication. Please advice Doctor: Hello,The frequent urination you discribe may be because of disc herniation in L5-S1 level, where the nerves which inervate urinary bladder start.You should have a lumbar MRI and after that try some physical therapy to strenghthen your muscles.Best regards,Anisa
