do antibiotics cause uti

Definitely take the antibiotics. Uti is something that needs antibiotics to cure and if it goes untreated then can develop into a kidney problem which in some cases can cause early labour. Much safer to take the meds. I've been on the same antibiotics twice during this pregnancy and am now 36+ weeks and baby is perfectly healthy.

You just need to be careful cause i think yhey say they cause yeast infections which can be harmful to your baby. So i would just make sure your doctor is approving them.

You need to go to the Dr nd be seen uti can become very serious nd can cause infection to spread throughout the body nd cause you to become very sick causing preterm or miscarriage

Hi, How are you? Indeed, some antibiotics including sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim and levofloxacin may cause headache as one of the side effects. This usually goes away after the course of the treatment. If it persists, inform your doctor about this for proper management. Take care and do keep us posted.

I have the worst uti right now sorry if that's tmi but what do you ladies do to get rid of it besides cranberry juice already drinking a bunchhhh

Uti's can cause cramping and contractions as it irritates the uterus. The antibiotics are necessary! I'm sorry about the tonsils, my husband went through that at 33 and it was miserable. I can't imagine it during pregnancy, I sure hope you feel better. Merry Christmas, and God bless.

Has that been treated with antibiotics? If not, it should be. Cranberry juice will do some good in clearing the urinary tract for you, but it's not a substitute for antibiotics.

An untreated UTI can cause a miscarriage. I've had 2 since I was pregnant, 8 in total. I got one when I was 6 weeks pregnat and because I had gotten UTI many times before, I thought "Oh, I'll just keep drinking water, and it should go away..." WRONG!!! My doctor must've scolded my *** they had to do an immediate IV for antibiotics because it had lead to a kidney inflmmation, which was causing friction against my uterus.

When habing a UTI, does it normal cause irritation, itchiness, or pain in the vagina.?

m pregnant Is there anything I can do without meds ?for UTI and Sore Throat if not did anybody take MACROBID while pregnant ?

I haven't used coconut oil for a uti but its great for its antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal properties. Same with olive leaf extract.

I did when I was 10 weeks, the antibiotics are safer to be on then what the uti could do for your baby!

On Friday I was having sharp intermittent aching pain in my right back where my kidney was located. My back in that area was tender to the touch. That evening I went to an urgent care facility and gave a urine sample. The doctor said the sample was too diluted and asked me to bring another sample in the next morning. Saturday morning (at home) I urinated into a cup that was given to me and then three hours later took the sample to the facility.

A UTI needs to be treated by antibiotics prescribed by your doctor. You need to get it treated promptly because it can cause complications that arent good for you or baby. Besides that, while you take the meds you should only be drinking water and no drinks with sugar. Natural cranberry juice is good.

I took that same antibiotics for a UTI when preggers with my first baby!! She's is perfectly healthy!!!!!

Now, I would do one last urine test and do not take antibiotics until the results come back. They should have them within 24 hours when they test your urine for bacterial. If it is positive, go for another round of antibiotics but also incorporate probiotics into your routine. The supplement type you take in a pill or the yogurt you eat or drink in smoothing form. This can greatly impact your ph balance. Has your urologist checked you for kidney stones? Bladder stones?

ve also treated me for a UTI. This past time they went ahead and prescribed my antibiotics for the duration of my pregnancy since I've been getting them back to back. They don't seem worry and just say it's common and due to the extra fluids in my body and hormonal and changes and chemical imbalances. I wouldn't be worried unless your doctor is :) BTW I'm 32weeks 5days.

Thank you for your comments. I do not think that it is a uti I have no other symptoms. I'm kinda leaning towards ovulation, but it never happened to me before. I had light pink for 1 day, now it's brown????? Is this how ovulation spotting is?

Yes, my Dr gave me antibiotics for uti...I have had 2 so far during my pregnancy...yuck!

Do i need to go to the doc for a uti? Been drinking cranberry juice but its gettimg worse and more painful...

Dealing with a horrible UTI after wrapping up a course of antibiotics for bronchitis. But I dont qualify for bed rest?!?!? Feeling frustrated. Anyone have any UTI tips? Was in such pain Monday and Sunday it hurt to walk. Felt exhausted but not in pain Tuesday. Wednesday was an ok day. Thursday was amazing..... until 3pm and now I feel just as bad as Sunday.... like it came back. Would appreciate any prevention ideas or any feedback .... Medicines to request .... Thanks in advance!

thanks what do you think the chances are that these symptoms are from a std? or do u think it is possible that it is a uti?

I'm 10 weeks and I have a UTI. ER doctor prescribed me Macrobid 100mg BID for ten days. Have any one taken this while pregnant? I googled it, and there were a lot of horror stories......just curious to see if others have taken, and there pregnancy remained normal...

Holding it in is one cause of the infection.. As far as the antibiotics go, No your baby will be fine so no worries...

I went to Planned Parenthood yesterday and they said I had a UTI. They gave me antibiotics. The itching has not gone away yet, but the other symptoms have.

doctor did a pee test it came out that I have a infection. I was suprised i didnt get any uti symptoms. She prescribed me antibiotics sulfamethoxazole tmp ds. Twice a day for 10 days I have taken those before never caused me side effects. N since I started taking them again yesterday.. I been having cramps on my lower abdominal n bad pressure headaches and fever. My eyes looks red n my lips burn kinda like itchy.. I feel nauseous.. should I be concern? Is it normal??

Nope. I have a UTI right now am on antibiotics got a + pregnancy test and have had it confirmed. Pregnancy tests test for hcg in your system which is only created when you are pregnant and/or taking fertility drugs. Antibiotics in no way effect it.

t know if your weakness is caused by the antibiotics, the UTI, both, neither, all the meds your taking, all the above, none of the above..........My first inclination is to say no, it's not the antibiotics, but I'm not qualified to answer that. I've personally never felt any side effects from antibiotics except, perhaps, a bit of stomach upset, but it's been a long time since I was on any. I would suggest you call your prescribing doctor and ask him/her.
