Study Summary

This trial will test whether transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can help relieve pelvic pain in women with a chronic condition called IC/BPS. TMS involves using a magnetic coil to stimulate specific areas of the brain. This study will examine whether TMS can help by reducing pelvic floor muscle activity.
