Why am i so prone to getting UTI's?

Question

i always get a urinary tract infection at least once a month, i do everything to prevent them and they still come, theyre so painful!!

Answer 1

The reason you are having these infections on a regular basis is due most likely to a biofilm problem. Biofilms are insidious and are not easy to get rid of. Biofilms are polysaccharide sacs that surround bacteria, virus, etc. and create a protective layer that attaches to the substrate and in your case, to the kidneys or urinary tracts.

Antibiotics will not get rid of this problem. They will only fix it temporarily to clear the infection in the area, but not get rid of the biofilm. Cancer is a high grade infection and is a result of these biofilms in the body for several years.

You can get rid of this in a few days and can get rid of the biofilms all with nutrition. Most doctors do not understand how the body works and use drugs as recommended by some drug company to treat the symptoms.

You will need to do the following to rid yourself of this problem once and for all:

Go to: www.healthline.cc (not .com) and order the following:

Multi-Pollen --- Take 3 of these with each meal. (3) 3 x per day
Allicidin --- Take 2 of these with each meal. (3) 3 x per day)
Hyssop Complex --- Take 2 of these with each meal. (3) 3 x per day.

You will notice the problem going away in a few days, but keep taking these items for about 1 month. It takes time to break up the biofilms causing the problem.

I would also get a probiotic from this company and take one in the morning and one at night.

You need to eliminate all diet drinks and foods. These turn into formaldahyde in your liver and are very toxic to the body. Eliminate all soda drinks, especially coca cola, pepsi, and all high caffeine drinks because this exhausts your adrenal glands and can affect your problem.

Drink lots of steam distilled water.

Also, you need to raise your morning pH to 6.4 to 7.0. Disease and germs causing your problem cannot live in that environment. You do this with the pH trio from the above company. This is very important to create a healthy environment, not only for this problem, but for your health in general.

Stay away from all the drugs and potions doctors give you for this. It will not fix the cause, only the symptoms and you will keep having the problem.

good luck to you

Prone To Uti

Answer 3

Recurrent Infections

Many women suffer from frequent UTI's. Nearly 20 percent of women who have a UTI will have another, and 30 percent of those will have yet another. Of the last group, 80 percent will have recurrences.

Usually, the latest infection stems from a strain or type of bacteria that is different from the infection before it, indicating a separate infection. (Even when several UTI's in a row are due to E. coli, slight differences in the bacteria indicate distinct infections.)

Research funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) suggests that one factor behind recurrent UTI's may be the ability of bacteria to attach to cells lining the urinary tract. A recent NIH-funded study has also shown that women with recurrent UTI's tend to have certain blood types. Some scientists speculate that women with these blood types are more prone to UTI's because the cells lining the vagina and urethra may allow bacteria to attach more easily. Further research will show whether this association is sound and proves useful in identifying women at high risk for UTI's

Recurrent Infections in Women

Women who have frequent recurrences may benefit from preventive therapy.

About 4 out of 5 women who have a UTI get another in 18 months. Many women have them even more often. A woman who has frequent recurrences (three or more a year) should ask her doctor about one of the following treatment options:


Take low doses of an antibiotic such as TMP/SMZ or nitrofurantoin daily for 6 months or longer. (If taken at bedtime, the drug remains in the bladder longer and may be more effective.) NIH-supported research at the University of Washington has shown this therapy to be effective without causing serious side effects.

Take a single dose of an antibiotic after sexual intercourse.

Take a short course (1 or 2 days) of antibiotics when symptoms appear.
Dipsticks that change color when an infection is present are now available without prescription. The strips detect nitrite, which is formed when bacteria change nitrate in the urine to nitrite. The test can detect about 90 percent of UTI's and may be useful for women who have recurrent infections.

Doctors suggest some additional steps that a woman can take on her own to avoid an infection:


Drink plenty of water every day. Some doctors suggest drinking cranberry juice, which in large amounts inhibits the growth of some bacteria by acidifying the urine. Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) supplements have the same effect;

Urinate when you feel the need; don't resist the urge to urinate;

Wipe from front to back to prevent bacteria around the anus from entering the vagina or urethra;

Take showers instead of tub baths;

Cleanse the genital area before sexual intercourse;

Avoid using feminine hygiene sprays and scented douches, which may irritate the urethra.

Answer 4

I have had some problems in this area myself. I've found ways to bring it down to only a few times a year. One, take about 2000 grams of Vitamin C every day. It helps a lot.
Two, notice what happens when you're done having sex. Some positions I can not do, or else I'm BOUND to get a UTI. I think it has something to do with how my body is shaped. Anyway, for me a no-no is having my legs over the man's shoulders. I just say sorry, can't do it.
When you feel like you might be getting a UTI take another vitimin C. Really, it's fantastic at getting rid of it!
Good luck.
Oh, BTW, I mean, OF COURSE, you practice all the usual hygiene appropriately, right? I'm sure, but yeah, that's definitely important! he he ;)

Answer 5

Try these tips:

wipe front to back (keeps bacteria near your anus, not close to the urethra where it travels up and causes infection)

clean your vibrator

be more gentle with your toys/while masturbating

have less sex

pee before and after sex

use more lubricant during sex

drink more water

change underwear more often

wear cotton, breathable underwear

avoid thongs

if you're a swimmer, don't keep a wet suit on long

bathe/shower more often

don't use bubble bath

keep your genital cleaner (if you get sweaty, take a shower or wipe everything)

go to a doctor and make sure there isn't an underlying cause like chlamydia

change pads more often during period

drink lots of water (so you're peeing nearly clear)

if it is linked to sex, try positions that don't irritate your bladder so much (ones where he doesn't constantly hit it), or ask your doctor for an antibiotic you take after you have sex (every time!)

Answer 6

I have experienced identical thing in year 2005. Here is what causes them and how you can prevent:
1) If you are sexually active, do not urinate before intercourse. Right after intercourse, pass urine. Follow this, more than half of the battle is won.
2) Take fruits, juices high in Vitamin C. The best juice that fights UTIs is cranberry juice. These days cranberry juice is available with more combination, like cranberry-grape etc, which is quite tasty. If you don't mind taking pure cranberry juice only, then nothing like that!
3) Get a CT Scan of lower part, which includes kidneys etc. This will rule out possibility of kidney stones.

Answer 7

many things can cause you to have these . If you are sexually active that can often cause the repeat infections. Make sure your partner takes a shower as well as yourself before any sexual activity. Afterwards urinate to get out any bacteria.

I'm sure you're drinking cranberry juice, I would also recommend taking cranberry capsules three times daily. This will really stop the uric acid.

I would advise you to see a doctor of urology for a complete work up. I used to suffer from constant infections and was finally able to get over this by seeing a specialist.

Answer 8

It could be your anatomy and you are just more prone to them. My daughter takes 2 cranberry tablets a day and that has dramatically helped reduce her UTI's and bladder discomfort. Also be sure you are not taking baths, especially bubble baths, which irritate the urethra. No deodorants down there either, and make sure you use unscented toilet paper. Good luck!

Answer 9

it may have to do with the way you are wiping yourself. Wipe from front to back, NOT back to front. If you wipe from your rear to your front, you are introducing bacteria to an area that is really sensitive to even small amounts of bacteria.

Also, make sure to wipe after having sex. Excess moisture down there can also bring on UTIs.
