Recurrent UTIs — how do you prevent them?
Hi
I’m a newlywed and have been married for about four months, and unfortunately this is now the third time I’ve experienced what feels like a UTI during that time.
I’ve been following all the usual advice to try to prevent them, but they keep coming back. I’ve taken antibiotics for the previous episodes, but then a couple of weeks later the symptoms seem to return.
I’m starting to feel like repeatedly taking antibiotics isn’t the best long-term solution for me, and I’d really like to understand why this keeps happening and what I can do to prevent it.
At the moment, I’ve been taking Ural, which has actually helped ease my symptoms. I also did a rapid urine test at home, and it showed a small amount of white blood cells in my urine.
For those who have dealt with this:
Are there any preventative measures that genuinely worked for you?
I’d really appreciate hearing about your experiences because I’m getting frustrated with this happening every few weeks. ❤️
