An remdy for the UIT is D-Mannose. Look it up. It is safe and at the health food store. It doesn’t allow bactria to live in the bladder. Can be taken daily as a preventative or with an acute UTI.

If you get frequent bladder infections( i get them alot) you don’t always have to take macrobid or soemthing after you have sex.
What is an easy method to control the bladder infections is, after having sex pee right away. Peeing before you have sex usually doesn’t help because depending on the length of the sex, you probably won’t have enough urin to urinate after sex. Drink a full large glass of water after going pee. Just down in. You’ll have to go pee in 30 minutes BUT it well help rid the bacteria quickley from your body. Also , make sure it’s clean when you have sex.
If you get the feeling you have a bladder infection but don’t heres what to do. After you have sex there is about a 3 day time limit that i use. Drink non-carbonated drinks (like pop ect) for 3 days. IF you DO NOT get a bladder infection in that time frame, you won’t get one.

I am one of those women who is subject to a uti as well after sex. It is very frustrating to say the least. I take a dose of macrobid after sex. My question is, is there anyone out there who still feels like they have a bladder infection but it isn’t one. I have pain during urination. But no infection. I do know that I probably need to increase my water intake as well. Any comments out there?
