BPS Utilizing Veterans Health Administration Data
This CDC-funded study estimates the prevalence of IC to be about 1% (1.4% in women and 0.55% in men) nationally and uses robust and rigorous diagnostic criteria.
In terms of comorbidities, the CDC-funded study reports an estimated 2.72 comorbidities per patient with IC (significantly higher than patients without IC).
