Do all your urine tests come back negative but the painful peeing, stinging, burning and bladder pain continues. The doctors have labelled your symptoms as a, “mystery” and it feels like you’ll never get to the bottom of what’s going on. You deserve a clear path forward to bladder healing. And you deserve answers.
That’s where IC and advanced UTI testing comes in.
IT’S SO FRUSTRATING WHEN YOU’RE LIVING WITH…
The burning suspicion that you have an embedded urinary tract infection (UTI) - you’ve been told it's “just” interstitial cystitis (IC) or bladder pain syndrome - and that feels like an incomplete answer.
Constantly getting recurring UTIs - is there is a bacterial infection in your bladder that is not showing up on a standard urinary dipstick?
All your urine tests come back negative but the painful peeing, stinging, burning and bladder pain continues.
Enough is enough.
Functional tests can help to quickly identify the most effective nutritional protocol for you and remove much of the guesswork associated with, for example, food elimination diets. And this can save you time and money in the long-run.

TESTING RECOMMENDED FOR CHRONIC UTIS AND INTERSTITIAL CYSTITIS
When you work with me on my Heal your Bladder programme, you get access to a vast range of clinical health tests using qPCR and NGS technology from reputable clinical laboratories you can rely on including: advanced urine test analysis, vaginal microbiome testing, and gut health testing (comprehensive stool testing). Some tests are included in the programme (urinary, vaginal and vitamin D testing), others can be added as required.
Functional tests such as these can help identify potential underlying imbalances in your bladder, vaginal or gut microbiomes that are driving symptoms, including chronic urinary symptoms. This valuable information may help determine a more targeted nutritional plan for you.
Urinary Microbiome testing which provides information on the microbes that reside in the bladder using DNA based technology. This is a fantastic option if your chronic UTI symptoms persist, despite negative urine culture based tests. INCLUDED
Vaginal Microbiome testing which provides information on the microbes that reside in the vagina using DNA based technology. This is a fantastic option to assess bacteria that may be translocating from the vagina to the bladder and going undetected on standard urine culture tests. INCLUDED
Blood tests to rule out nutrient deficiencies such as vitamin D deficiency which is involved in UTI prevention. INCLUDED
Comprehensive stool testing which can be helpful when dealing with chronic bloating, gas, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), chronic constipation or diarrhoea. Find out more about the benefits of stool testing.
Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) breath tests can be helpful when there is excessive or chronic bloating, gas, constipation or diarrhoea. SIBO is a common side effect of long term antibiotic use.
Female hormone testing e.g. DUTCH test. A comprehensive hormone test that provides insight into your sex and adrenal hormones, metabolites, and detox pathways.
Adrenal stress test e.g. cortisol and DHEA.
