recurrent UTI
I have gotten 8 UTIs in the past year and it's getting really old. I'm doing all the things the doctors say to do but maybe you guys have some more things to add to the list. Here are the things I already do to try to prevent them:
Wash daily with antiseptic soap.
Use loose-fitting cotton pants and panties.
Shower instead of taking baths.
Drank cranberry juice and take cranberry tablets.
Wash before sex.
Urinate and wash after sex.
Drink about 1.5 liters of water (liquid) a day.
Take regular potty breaks.
Wipe front-to-back.
But the second I miss a beat, if I miss ONE potty break or wear ONE pair of snug pants, I'm instantly sick! And once I got sick even though I had been doing everything right! Why am I so vulnerable to this??
