UTI

[Cath2907]

I’ve got a new partner. Due to childcare issues we can only meet up on Friday evenings (which suits us both).
However the last 2 weekends I’ve woken up on Sunday with what feels like a raging UTI. I drink like a fish all morning and it starts to clear mid afternoon and I’m fine again by Monday.
The new guy is well endowed and enthusiastic and has far more stamina than my ex. We’ve been having a great time but I am not enjoying feeling ill today.

Anyone got any thoughts about how to prevent this issue without giving up my new sex life?

After sex, do you make yourself pee? It is a really good idea to flush out the urinary tract by going to the loo. As tempting as it is to lie there in each other's arms and go to sleep, there are things you need to do and this is one of them.

Yup. Pee after sex.
But I spent much of a year long relationship with a well endowed guy with constant cystitis. Did permanent harm down there. Really prone to them now and damaged my pelvic floor. Sorry

Pee after. For sure

Drink plenty especially Cranberry juice or lemon barley water too.

If the UTI is caused by e-coli, D-mannose powder should clear it, take the emergency dose after sex. Unless you are sure the UTI has cleared, take sample to GP to get checked, as not every UTI is caused by e-coli, and you may need antibiotics to fully clear the infection. UTI is miserable, I used I suffer with them constantly, been taking D-mannose twice a day, and have been UTI free for a year.
