Ive always had recurrent utis and some
interstitial cystitis symptoms. i got
really desperate a month or so ago and was
searching the internet when i found this
old English lady whose been preaching a
method to cure utis for 20 years - what i
got out of it was, embarrassingly, be
really careful about, um..bowel movements.
She recommends a very strict washing
method after every bowel movement and
after sex. Luckily, I work at home and
started washing in the shower immediately
after going to the bathroom and started
rinsing with lots of water after sex
(since i know soap isnt really good for
the vagina.) As obvious as it sounds, and
even though i consider myself a clean
person, this really made a difference. Im
getting them far less often. Apparently if
you are a person with a small perineum, a
few hours for those bacteria to travel can
really affect you. Also, my doctor
recommended at the slightest indication to
take 2 days of antibiotics. This can also
really help. Good luck to everyone!!
