Tricks to beat cystitis

Best Blogger Tips

Eighty per cent of women suffer at least one attack of cystitis, and many have repeated attacks. But there are some simple measures that can help you....

  • Drink plenty of fluid every day. Cystitis is caused by bacterial in the bladder, and fluid helps flush them out. preventing them from sticking to the walls of the bladder.
  • Always wipe from front to back after using the toilet. One of the most common bacterial causes of cystitis is E coli., which is present in feces. Practice especially proper hygiene after moving your bowels.
  • Wash before and after sex. Intercourse tend to push bacteria up the urethra making it easy for them to invade the bladder.
  • Don't put off going to the loo. The urine stays in the bladder, the easier it is for bacteria to multiply.
  • Using a diaphragm makes you more prone to cystitis because it pushes up the urethra, making it hard to empty the bladder totally.
  • Avoid bubble baths, vaginal deodorants and perfumed soaps which can irritate the skin, helping harbour harmful bacteria.
