Abstract
Urinary dysfunction encompasses a wide range of syndromes and symptoms and is highly prevalent among the adult population. Urinary issues have been associated with psychosocial sequelae. The interplay between psychosocial comorbidity and symptoms impacts perceived severity and treatment success. While the correlation has been described in the literature, much remains unknown. This article describes the psychosocial impact on conditions such as overactive bladder (OAB), neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD), recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI), and interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS). This article also highlights potential interventions for patients afflicted with both urinary disorders and psychosocial comorbidity to improve overall treatment success.
