Avatar m tn Possibilities include a coincidental non-STI urinary tract infection (rare in men under age 40) or perhaps a prostate infection (again prostate infection are not STIs). I see no reason for you to be worried about STI. Is it possible that since this encounter you have been more watchful than normal and are seeing normal genital secretions which you would pay no attention to otherwise? if not, I suggest you talk with your own doctor about other, possible non-STI causes.
Avatar n tn The infection can move up to your kidneys quite quickly. Urinary tract infection is not serious in females, but in males it is.
Avatar f tn Has anyone got a urinary tract infection during pregnancy? Was it uncomfortable and a little painful at times? once treated did the uncomfortablness go away? I think I have one I have a drs appt in 4 days is it safe to wait until then?
4251679 tn?1370305531 UTIs are exactly what their name describes. and infection in your urinary tract. its not in your vagina, however, ive always been told not to have sex while you have one because sex could be the cause of it. and its best to make sure its all better before introducing even more bacteria. Ive never heard of it being contagious, and dont think that it is, but ask your doctor. and ive also never had a cream to use, so im not sure what thats for.
Avatar n tn You may not even have to bring your dog in for an exam if the urine is positive for a simple urinary tract infection (an infection without crystals). The vet can simply give appropriate antibiotics. If your dog has crystals in his urine, the crystals would need to be identified and treatment instituted. Crystals can be dangerous in male dogs because if they become large enough they can become lodged in the urethra and cause blockage (even in dogs, though more common in male cats).
Avatar f tn Im 90% sure that I have a urinary tract infection but I have additional symptoms that I dont usually have. My partner and I had sex several nights ago and I developed the usual symptoms: painful urination general discomfort frequent urination urine is cloudy and pink What is unusual is that I have clumps of something when I pee. They are pinkish is this a possible symptom that will pass just like the others?
Avatar f tn I’m 20 years old. I have a urinary tract infection(coliform). A doctor prescribed Amoxicillin 625mg + Tamsulosin medicine for 10 days to me. I have a side effect after taking Tamsulosin (Retrograde ejaculation) or any other ejaculation problem. Is this normal or should I stop using Tamsulosin? Or will it (Retrograde ejaculation ) recover after stop using ten days? Should I keep getting Tamsulosin for 10 days or stop?
Avatar f tn How do you tell the difference between a urinary tract infection and yeast infectiy?
Avatar n tn A urologist has specialized knowledge and skill regarding problems of the male and female urinary tract and the male reproductive organs. The urologist may decide to do a cystoscopy and/or arrange for specific imaging tests that show up what is going on inside the urinary tract. As the antibiotics did not work it may be that they were the wrong type of antibiotic to treat any underlying infection, or you have no bacterial infection.
Avatar f tn Betadine would seem to take the body off its usual self-cleansing track, and so would the antibiotics you took (though they obviously worked to heal the infection, your normal urinary-tract environment got disrupted). You need something gentler and more close to natural, since the area is disrupted and irritated. Also, if you haven't, you might change to washing your underwear in one of the laundry soaps made for washing babies' things, such as Dreft.
Avatar f tn Besides yeast, antibiotics are also know to increase urinary tract infections due to killing off good bacteria. Urge to urinate is a sign of that.
Avatar m tn Just today, however, I started feeling some urgency to urinate and some discomfort (like a urinary tract infection). I do not have any pain or burning when I actually urinate. Is there any chance that I contacted some type of STD from this encounter at the strip club? Also, is my wife at risk for anything (she has not exhibited any symptoms so far)?
Avatar n tn After confirming the diagnosis of a urinary tract infection through urine tests, antibiotic treatment may be started. A urine culture and sensitivity test will determine the specific organism responsible as well as the antibiotic treatment. Drinking plenty of fluids also help. Take care and best regards.
Avatar f tn I have a question for those of you with urinary tract problems. I have had several UTIs and seem to be retaining urine. Also, my bladder and kidneys hurt. As many of you know, I do have Lupus. The question I have is should I be going to a urologist? I have talked to my GP about this and I have even mentioned being tested for Lupus Nephritis, but he just tells me that anytime he has checked my kidneys they have been fine.
Avatar n tn i had a urinary tract infection less than a month ago and i drank all the cranberry juice in the world to get rid of it. it disappeared a week later. my boyfriend and i have great sex regularly 3-4 times a week and since i had this infection it either takes me a lonngggg time to orgasm or i dont orgasm at all. can my inablity to have great sex be related to my urinary tract infection? and if so, how can i fix it? please help.
Avatar f tn It's probably just a urinary tract infection. Very common. Antibiotics will clear it up in no time. Relax. Getting worked up about it isn't going to solve anything.
Avatar n tn There is nothing you can really do about the urinary tract infection except take the antibiotics. They may want you to take a stronger antibiotic (prescribed by your doctor) but being pregnant makes us more probable to have urinary tract infections. It doesn't become a problem unless you ignore it.
