Re: UTI: Repetative UTIFrom: Professor Galal Lotfi (anonymous@obgyn.net)Sat, 27 Oct 2007 03:22:51 -0500 (CDT)
I believe that you can do something like that: In addition to taking a lot of fluids. Be sure to empty your bladder before intercourse and after having it. Better to have external ulval cleaning with mild antisptic. Make a test of urine for bacterial colony count just for follow up. Take Introfurantoin for a week after you period, for three cycles. It workd with some, hope it works with you At Fri, 26 Oct 2007, kamoton wrote: > >At Fri, 26 Oct 2007, Professor Galal Lotfi wrote: >> >>At Thu, 25 Oct 2007, kamoton wrote: >>> >>>After my 3rd child I have had many UTI and she is only 8 months old.
