Cystitis can worsen due to several factors, including dehydration, which leads to concentrated urine that irritates the bladder lining. Certain irritants, such as caffeine, alcohol, spicy foods, and artificial sweeteners, may also exacerbate symptoms. Additionally, not fully emptying the bladder, frequent use of irritant hygiene products, or prolonged use of catheters can contribute to increased discomfort and inflammation. Stress and hormonal changes can also play a role in worsening cystitis symptoms.
There are two types of cystitis - bacterial cystitis and interstitial cystitis. Bacterial cystitis is caused by an infection in the bladder and is usually a one off occurence. The cause of interstitial cystitis is unknown but it is recognised that it often gets worse during ovulation, although the reason for this is not fully understood. It is possible that this could be what you have although there are a lot of different conditions which have similar symptoms and your doctor would be the best person to advise you.
Cystitis is more common in women due to their shorter urethra, which makes it easier for bacteria to travel to the bladder. In men, the longer urethra creates a greater distance for bacteria to travel, reducing the frequency of cystitis. Additionally, hormonal factors and differences in anatomy contribute to the higher prevalence of cystitis in women.
