Interstitial Cystitis or Chronic Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome, Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms, and Overactive Bladder patients will be compared to Healthy and Depressed patients.

Healthy patients will be used as controls to compare to patients diagnosed with Interstitial Cystitis, Chronic Prostatitis, Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome, Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms, Overactive Bladder, and Depressed patients.

Major Depression patients will be compared to Controls and Pelvic Pain cohorts.

Microbiomes of Pelvic Pain

Anaerobic bacteria will be collected from a fecal specimen from both Control patients and patients diagnosed with Interstitial Cystitis or Chronic Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome, Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms, Overactive Bladder, and/or Major Depression. Genotyping will be done to differentiate bacterial populations between the Control patients and patients with Interstitial Cystitis or Chronic Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome, Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms, Overactive Bladder, and/or Major Depression.

If you are a local patient: Blood will be collected and serum will be separated and analyzed for HPA markers associated with the anaerobic organisms found in the microbiome.

If you are a local patient: Urine will be analyzed for the presence of bacteria, and HPA markers associated with the organisms found in the microbiome.
