UTI
Three weeks ago I was told I had a small UTI - traces of blood in urine and 10000 bacteria. No cultures were done. I had the frequency and urgency without pain. I was put on Cipro XL for 6 days and the infection cleared but not the fequency and urgency to urinate. My doctor gave me Detrol LA a week ago and the symptoms have subsided greatly.
On Sunday, my husband and I had intercourse. I lubed up well and all was good. Again on Tuesday night, we had intercourse - no pain. Wednesday morning, after I urinated, I noticed blood on the toilet paper. After 3 wipes, no more blood. There was not much blood. I went to the ER - urine is fine. I'm mid-cycle and feeling a pinching feeling on my left ovary and some pain in the left pubic bone. The doctor at the ER said it could be fibroids or a cyst. This is not the first time that I have a little blood after intercourse, my doctor says that it is probably trauma to the cervix. I am getting a pelvic ultrasound next week. I am 34 years old and otherwise healthy. What are your thoughts?
