What Does Urinary Pressure Post Hysterectomy Suggest?

yes, thank you, I am 52 yr old female, with history of endometriosis and had a hysterectomy one year ago, (right ovary remains), for the past 5 weeks I have been experiencing a continuous urinary pressure, no pain associated with urination, and lab culture returned negative for urinary tract infection,but the discomfort ranges from 1-4daily (5 being the worst). this pressure is not alleviated with hydration or urination, or OTC pain medications and seems to worsen at night. its doesn t hinder daily routine or exercise, but is constant and uncomfortable. Additionally I have seen a increase in fatigue, due to sleep disturbance, awakening in early morning hours and not able to fall back to sleep for 2-3 hours. hot flashes have also increased, mostly in the evenings. my Gynecologist does not believe it is related to my bladder, and is sending me to a GYN Specialist for more testing. I am concerned that problems may be result of hysterectomy procedure last year. seeking advisement on potential cause and remedies, Thank you in advance

Hello,

Urine infections are very common in females because of small urethra. You should get a urinalysis and urine culture done and consult accordingly.
