I am 24 years old married female. I am having sexual intercourse past 6 months. Since I live in a different place away from my husband. I have sex only once or twice a month. But after one or two days of having sex I get burning sensation during urination. And a kind of pain at the end of the urination. I am suffering from this since 3 months. I have taken urikind or cital syrup in water. For which I get relief. But this problem is repeating every month after having sexual intercourse. What is the permanent solution to get rid of this?

Hello- You are suffering from post sex urinary tract infection/UTI. UTIs are very common and nearly half of all women will have at least one at some point in her life. Why? Because the vaginal, anal, and urethral openings are all depressingly near one another. However it can be prevented by following methods. 1. Pee before sex ?Pee after sex. Pee after sex. Pee after sex.? It is the advice any smart mother teachers her daughters around high school. But, did you know that you should also pee before sex? Since your vaginal, urethral, and anal openings are in such close proximity, there can be bacteria hanging out near the area. When you have sex, you?re pushing all that bacteria way up in there. Pee before sex to clear the pipes before getting busy. Roger that! 2. Clean up You don?t have to jump up the second you finish getting down, but cleaning up after sex is important for avoiding UTIs. Both you and your partner should shower after sex. Morse suggests showering before sex too, if you can. Again with the bacteria! Rise your vulva and vagina with warm water. You can use a mild soap on your butt. Do not put soap in your vagina or you will be sorry. ?Regular soaps and body washes, lotions, anything with very heavy perfumes [are] all are not good to use in your vaginal area,? Morse says. Hello, bacterial vaginosis! Hard pass on that. 3. Don?t use ?feminine hygiene products? Don?t ever use douches, vaginal ?washes? or other ridiculous scam products. Ever. Vaginas smells the way they are supposed to smell so don?t go buying products that promise to turn your cooter into a cherry pie. These products contain harsh chemicals that can throw off your pH, leading to infection. Your vagina is self-cleaning. Don?t listen to an industry that has made billions of dollars off of making women feel insecure. If you irritate the skin on your vulva, you?re more likely to get a UTI when it comes in contact with bacteria during sex. 4. Stay hydrated Prone to UTIs? Drink a ton of water. Load up the Swell bottle, ladies, because we are taking down the H2O in buckets. Staying hydrated is a secret trick to staving off those pesky infections. ?This is the fastest way to get rid of bacteria and prevent it from staying in your urinary tract,? Morse tells us.
