To prevent cystitis, you have to drink a lot, about a liter and a half per 24 hours, and especially often in the event of a heat wave.
- As of July 28, 1,955 confirmed cases have been recorded in France.
- On August 1, Indian authorities announced the death of a man infected with monkeypox.
Cystitis results in burning, an obsessive and continual urge to urinate. Symptoms that almost all women have experienced at least once in their lives.
Cystitis is indeed a matter of women and hose, because for germs to infect the bladder – and therefore cause cystitis – they must not have too far to go. The male zizi being, in the worst case, at least ten centimeters long, the distance is almost impassable for the most common microbes; as a result, the man almost never suffers from cystitis.
It often appears from the first sexual intercourse; it then responds to the sweet name of “honeymoon cystitis”. It is also the sexual and hormonal life that will punctuate this disease.
Not to be taken lightly
Women too often get into the habit of enduring these sufferings. However, this disease should not be taken lightly. It can, in fact, one day turn into an infection of the upper part of the bladder then by reaction of neighborhood of the kidneys, and there it is a completely different problem, much more worrying.
So, in the face of any cystitis, the reflex must be to take pain medication – such as paracetamol – and above all no antibiotics, which are nevertheless essential but must be prescribed by your doctor after taking the urine to find out which microbes this is to be certain that the prescribed antibiotic will be effective.
This antibiotic is easy to use. Hence the temptation to take it at each recurrence when the microbe is perhaps not the same.
This is, in fact, the second important notion, recurrent cystitis. We must therefore try to prevent it. And to do this, you need to drink a lot, about a liter and a half per 24 hours, and especially often. It is also necessary to get into the habit of urinating after sexual intercourse, to make an intimate toilet every day – no more – because the best is often the enemy of the good, repeated vaginal douching destroys the natural flora. Certain foods seem to promote seizures. This is the case for beer, wine and spices.
