I was wondering if there had ever been any research done on a possible link between a women having ic, becoming pregnant and then miscarring because of ic?

Hi,  I have seen no data on wemen with IC having an increased incidence of miscarriages.  Obviously, any women can have a miscarriage, and any women can have IC, that doesn't mean one caused the other.  Because both problems involve different organs (uterus vrs bladder) its hard to postulate a cause and effect.  Most patients do very well during pregnancy with IC and find that their symptoms dramatically improve.  The reasons are unclear.  Check the ICA website: ichelp.org for more details on IC and pregnancy.  Good Luck.
