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: >
