hi ladies. i too have this problem and have recently come across a solution that doesnt involve crazy backwards toilet using. of course you need maintain good hygiene and that we do and still get effected regular uti and yest infections.
the solution is your diet! i know i though it was a load of crock to but it seriously works. i was reffered to a realy good natropath dieticion and who also was licensed in iridology. she explained that your diet is realy specific and unique to the individual. and certain things can trigger more Candida in your body (Candida being in everyone, just in different levels. in jigher doeses it can make you sick tired and moody, and affect certain organs and infections) the food you eat can increase the leavels of Candida in your body. In my case my poison was potato (which i LOVE) and other foods i thought were healthy. also red meat was a gient killer for me. but it depend on your blood type and other factors. i myself am a type A+ and certain foods that are toxic to me may be harmless to a person of a different blood type.
I went on this diet as the bigist sceptic. and after about 2 weeks of the diet and herbal medications to flush the pre existing Candida out of my body i started to feel less tired. and less moody. best of all as long as i stick to my diet i dont get uti or yest infections it went well for 6 months with no infections. but the second i slip up n splerg on a week of potato and bad stuf.. hello uti!! back on the diet n all cleared up. just thought that might help. if you know your blood type i am happy to send a general summery of what you should n realy shouldnt be eating
PS> too much Candida in your body of long periods of time can lead to Cancer. and also a good healthy diet to keep candida at bay can PRevent / help from getting cancer. if you know some one with cancer please incorage them to get there dietry neads cheacked by soeone who knows what they are talking about. a good diet of the right foods FOR THEM can slow down the process and help treatmets work more effectively.

in rep;y to Sofi-chan...

trust me you will know...

frequent urination, painful urination, strong urge to go minutes after urination, if severe infection is present there can be blood in your urine.

I've been there! For about 3 years, I battled constant UTIs ~ I drank the juice, wore cotton underwear, pee before and after...didn't matter. I saw my pcp constantly, had CAT scans, saw a urologist...nothing. Finally, after another evening appt at my dr's, I was able to sit down with a nurse practioner, and explained it all. She prescribed Cipro (250 mg), to be taken immediately after sex, and only then. It worked! I haven't had a UTI in almost 7 years.

I know we shouldn't "abuse" antibiotics, and I hate taking them even for a sinus infection, but this has been my saving grace. Perhaps, if you're finding you get them after sex, or anything related, and only then, you should mention this to your doctor. Good Luck!

What is common JenyG is a prolonged course 6 - 12 months of a low dose antibiotic..which apparenty reduces the frequency of UTI's.

Cranberry Juice, or tables may also assist, there is a food group for every problem we have in life that helps

The problem is, the space between your butt and vagina

Bacteria can easily spread and hygiene isn't always as easy as you think, such as wiping backwards on number twos.

It does also refer to G-strings... Think about it, the thong part is very thin, an inch... It moves as you walk, you pull at it as well, but because it moves, it spreads the bacteria just that little bit closer each time.

Also apparently washing G-strings in hot water does not kill the bacteria. Washing them with other clothes spreads the bacteria...

Always wash them separately and I heard from a Doctor (I've never had UTI) however, that placing a small amount of mouth wash in the washing, will kill the bacteria.

Thinking of all the times I wear G-Strings

Wasn't a good choice after all.... The good part is when you get to my age, it's almost impossible to get a UTI, from them, so now I can be queen of the G-Strings

UTI"s I used to get them all the time in my early 20's. Here's what I learned and did. Emaculate hygene a must. In the shower, wash rectal areas, whole perenial areas with lots of soap and hot water. Before sex, sit on toilet and run a pitcher of water over whole perenial area. If you made a bowel movt, after your morning shower, than you need to wash the area with soap before sex! After sex, run a pitcher of water over yourself as well. Dry thourally. this was the trick for me ladies. Once I did this, no more UTI's ever, and I'm 50 now. Since then, my daugher has gotten them. I think she was wiping the wrong way unconciously, but in any case, I didn't want her on all the antibiotics. We tried lots of cranberry supplements, but also, D-Mannose powder. It stops it! Get on it right away!!! At the first sign, take it every 1/2 hour to hour. Keep it up, then you can back off. Guarrenteed cure folks! It literally was the cure for my daughter who was young, and obviously not sexually active. D-Mannuse keeps the bacteria from sticking. It will work.
