    Burning... please help

    Okay, so I have a tendency of having pretty rough sex every once in a while & almost everymonth I thought I was getting a bladder infection... But I am only getting it when I have really rough sex. I don't have insurance but went to Planned Parenthood & they told me I had Bacterial Vaginosis.. Well I took the Metronidazole like perscribed. Well it's been 3 weeks since I was on the medication & I did have rough sex over the weekend, and I have symptoms again.
    *burning & urge to urinate (only relief is urinating but burning comes back right after)
    *very little urination

    does anyone have any other ideas of what this could be? Or maybe how to enjoy rough sex without getting this everytime?

      It sounds like you may be developing a urinary tract infection. Things that you can do to prevent this in the future include, peeing and washing up after sex (very important as it flushes any bacteria that may have gotten pushed up into the urethra during sex), drinking cranberry juice or taking cranberry supplement tablets each time you have sex (this won't really help if you already have an infection, but it will help prevent future ones), and also try to avoid positions during sex that put pressure on your bladder/urethra. If the pain persists over a couple days, you should definitely see a doctor as you most likely do have an infection of some sort.

          If you had rough sex it could be something related to that? Maybe you injured/bruised something? If it continues, you really should go to some clinic or see a doctor and find out what the problem really is.
