Frequent UTI

[unknowngirl]

I am a 24 year old woman. i got married last year. i had once got UTI 3 years back  ( nearly in June 2006) . i got married and got involved in sexual activity for the first time. My husband always uses condoms. I got affected with UTI again after 3 years in last month ( jan 2009) . i was prescribed Norflox 400mg and pyridium. with a 3 day dose everything got fine.

But again now after just a month ione m experiancing the same problem. I have not visited the doctor yet but just want to know what is the proper medication for this problem or a permanent solution for this problem.

I am 25 yrs old. When my husband and i first got married at age 18, i would have them everytime after sex. 8 years later i have one again. This time i believe it came from receiving oral sex from him. The bacteria that a person can hold in their mouths..im assuming. I was once told by a doctor that my husbands sperm could have too much or too little acidity,which can cause a uti. I hate them..mine are always painful and if i jump or move suddenly i can actually feel pain in my uterus.

hello friend,
it happens sometimes. Female's urinary tract is smaller than males. So chances of infections are higher in them. You need to driank a lot of water so that you urinate frequently and less chances of UTI.
Meanwhile it's better to start with the medicines once the UTI is proved.
