Answer 1

It could be a urinary tract infection. Urinary tract infection (UTI) occurs when part of the urinary tract becomes infected, usually with bacteria, and is common in women who are sexually active. The most common type of UTI is known as cystitis (inflammation of the bladder). It has been estimated that one third of women experience the symptoms of cystitis at some point in their life.

Urine is normally free from germs and bacteria, however, the normal human body is covered with bacteria and the normal intestine contains enormous numbers of harmless bacteria. Urinary tract infections are usually upward-travelling infections that occur when some of the harmless bacteria from the intestine manage to get into the urethra and then travel up into the bladder. This happens in women, particularly during intercourse.

Bacteria from the area around the anus are introduced into the introitus (opening to the vagina) and thus to the opening of the urethra. In predisposed women, intercourse helps the passage of these bacteria via the urethra into the bladder by a process of urethral massage.

If not treated, the infection may travel further from the bladder up the ureters to the kidneys.

When you have a UTI, the bladder and the lining of the urethra become red and inflamed. Common symptoms related to UTIs may include:

a burning sensation or lower abdominal discomfort when you pass urine;
needing to urinate urgently;
passing urine much more frequently than usual;
‘leaking’ urine;
feeling an urge to urinate, but being unable to or only passing a few drops;
foul smelling urine;
urine that is cloudy, bloody or dark; and
having a temperature.

Some factors that may increase your likelihood of developing a UTI may include the following.
Being female. UTIs are more common in women than in men because a women’s urethra is located closer to their rectum than a man’s. Also, the female urethra is shorter, so it is easier for bacteria to reach the bladder.
Being pregnant.
Having tumours or stones in the urinary tract.
Having diabetes.
Using a diaphragm as contraception.
Having a medical condition involving the bladder or kidneys.
Having a urinary catheter.
How are UTIs treated?
UTIs are usually treated with antibiotics. If your doctor suspects a UTI, they may test a sample of your urine to confirm the diagnosis, but often they will know you have a UTI from the symptoms you have.

If you have a UTI, your doctor will prescribe a course of antibiotics that should alleviate symptoms in a few days.

As with any course of antibiotics, it is important to complete the entire course prescribed by your doctor, even if you are no longer experiencing symptoms of a UTI.

Here are some tips for preventing UTIs.
Drink lots of water.
Urinate as soon as you feel the need.
Wipe your bottom from front to back to prevent bacteria from around the anus entering the urethra.
Make sure you have adequate lubrication during sex, and urinate after having sex.
Avoid using feminine hygiene products such as sprays or douches.
If you use a diaphragm, ask your doctor about other forms of contraception you might use.
Take vitamin C or cranberry juice — they are said to be urinary antiseptics.

Answer 2

You may have a mild bladder infection, bladder infections can be caused by sex. Especially if you have sex often in a short period of time. If your symptoms progress see a doctor for antibotics if they continue to be mild take a cranberry extract supplement and that should do the trick.

Answer 3

You have Urinary tract infection. You must stop having sex for two weeks. Ask for Cotrimoxazole 500 mg in your drugstore take it 3 times a day for 7 days. If your pregnant you can't take the drugs go to the obgyn and let her give you the medicine. It can be dangerous if you will not treat that. Avoid SEX for now. You must kill all the bacteria inside you and heal those scratches inside you which resulted to UTI. Over sex can cause UTI.

Answer 4

My husband had the tingling too. Since it persisted (even though he didn't mind) , I finally convinced him to go to the doctor. He had a urniary tract infection. Don't wait it out too long. A UTI can lead to a more serious infection.

Answer 5

Are you going more often? It could still be a bladder infection. You should get attention to that.
