Ladies.....

have any of you gotten a kidney infection or bladder infection from having too much sex? I've that this can happen. But i'm not sure if it's true or not. Me and br have been at it more often than usual because of him starting his stuff. Yesterday when I was getting ready to go out, my back started hurting to where I couldn't sit or stand to make it not hurt. I had worked out legs earlier that day, but this ache was different from that kind of pain. It was where my kidneys are. The pain has subsided today, but I was just wondering if any of you have had this before.

I used to get urinary tract infections all the time, lots of sex can cause it, and plus, if his hands aren't 100% clean, sometimes you get infections that way too.

You get bladder infection from not peeing after sex. Make sure you go before and after you have sex this will reduce your chances of getting a bladder infection.

Well... It hasn't been burning when I pee, but hopefully it won't start. It's weird but when my back (kidneys) was hurting, the pain eased up a little when i drank a lot of water. I drank about a gallon of water last night and peed every 10 min. lol

hello Gals,

I had that a few months back, not pleasant. They call it "honeymooners" LMAO. Anyway IF you do have an infection, drinking water will not help, you could make it worse! You should go to the Dr for anti biotics. The doc also told me that drinking Cranberry juice (pure) will help.

Because "ours" is outside and has a direct line to the bladder this does happen sometimes. Jenny is right, you should always make sure you have a pee after sex.

Anyway I researched it a bit and found these tablets, they are a "friendly bacteria", typically the same as a Dr would give to a women if he prescribed her antibiotics to prevent thrush. The antibiotics do something to the friendly bacteria, hence the thrush.

Lemme know if you gals want the name of it. If I feel an onslought on its way I take 2 tablets a day for a few days and it goes away.

Back home we have a tablet called Interflora, however the country we live in doesn't have them, so I searched for the active ingredient which is: L.acidophilus and it also has 3 other ingredients in the tab. Its called: "Advanced Multi-Billion Dophilus, made by a company called SOLGAR in the US. They were quite pricey out here, paid about $35 for a bottle of 60 tabs. You need to keep them in the fridge.

Let me know if you need any other info....

Yes cranberry juice can help, but I'll have to disagree with you on the water thing. You need to drink lots of water to flush out the bladder. I will attach a sheet that talks about bladder infections.


Causes of Bladder Infections
External bacteria traveling up the urethra is one of the main causes of bladder infections. This explains, in part, why a woman is more likely to develop a bladder infection than a man: the female urethra is much shorter than the male’s and bacteria can gain entrance to the bladder more easily.

The kidneys may be a source of bacteria that cause the bladder infection. In such instances, kidney infection would be the primary concern. Infections of the kidney are potentially very serious. Any bladder infection can, in turn, cause further problems and warrants immediate medical attention.

Another cause of bladder infections is a blockage in the bladder or urethra, which hinders urine flow and prevents the bladder from emptying completely. Residual urine remaining in the bladder increases the chances that bacteria will multiply and establish an infection in the bladder. The main culprits of blockages are kidney and bladder stones, but an enlarged prostate can also cause a blockage, and bacteria from an unhealthy prostate can pass into the bladder.

Women who use diaphragms have an increased risk for developing a bladder infection.

Contributing factors to bladder infections include catheter use in hospitals or at home and neurogenic disorders. With a neurogenic disorder, the bladder nerves fail to send the correct messages to the brain leading to incomplete voiding of the bladder (i.e., some urine remains after each emptying).

Bladder Infection Symptoms

Itchiness and a burning sensation while urinating, along with the urge to urinate even when the bladder is empty are the most common bladder infection symptoms. Less common symptoms include fevers, unusual discharge from the urethra, dark, cloudy urine or evidence of blood in the urine.

These are not the symptoms reported by many elderly patients with bladder infection, however. Instead, there are less obvious signs, such as a loss of appetite or a change in eating habits. The sudden onset of confusion may also indicate a bladder infection in the elderly patient.

Treatment for Bladder Infections

Bladder infections are usually treated with antibiotics, and treatment generally lasts one to two weeks. The infection itself may clear up with three to four days of medication, but most doctors prefer a longer period of medication to ensure that the infection does not recur.

For women who suffer from recurrent bladder infections (3–4 a year), doctors may prescribe long-term antibiotics. Some patients may be required to take the medication for up to six months.

Preventing Bladder Infections

While many of the causes of bladder infection are out of our control, taking some preventive measures can reduce the chance of infection

Stay hydrated: drink six to eight glasses of water a day.

Avoid tight, constricting clothes and synthetic underwear.

Reduce or eliminate caffeinated beverages.

Women should urinate before and after intercourse, to help clean out bacteria.

Women should wipe from front to back after urinating: this moves potential bacteria away from the urethra.

AP and Petite - go see the doc. they will do a urine test to make sure that is what you have. if AP's kidneys hurt, i would go ASAP, b/c i believe that means the infection has gotten pretty serious.

i had one last year, and i couldn't bare the pain of tinkling so went to see the doc right away, and he checked my kidneys just to make sure the infection hadn't spread too far.... so AP - go see the doc.

and petite, you too! i don't know how you've been able to handle the pain

cranberry juice and cranberry extract pills will relieve the pain during urinating.... but you will need an antiboitic to get rid of the infection.

no... AP, definitely go. if i remember right, by the time the bladder infection gets to your kidneys, it's been around for a while. which means you might have had a non-symptomatic UTI - if your kidneys hurt (had hurt/still hurt/whichever) the infection spread. go see the doc, tell him/her what's wrong. you don't want it to turn into something more serious than it needs to be.

I've had my fair share of bladder infactions and they are not fun. But every medication I have ever used for them gives me severe back pain.

Its not a kidney infection she has. I've had ex g/f's thats had them. And with AP it only lasted 1 night for a few hours and thats it. And that was a few days ago. If you ask me i think its 1 of those fluke things that she always has happening to her all the time. lol She's always sick with something. Weather it be a headache, nauses, stomach, ache, not feeling good in general. Its an everday thing. So i seriously doubt its a kidney infection. Cause if it was she would still have the pains. And it doens't even hurt her when she pees.

She worked out legs that day so i know she wouldn't have took any ECA or anything of the sort. I told her that night she might have pulled or strained something in the same area of the kidney's while working out legs. And it made her think it was her kidney's.

An infection will build up gradually usually over the course of a few hours or days even. I had a kidney infeciton that came on suddenly (fever, chills, dizzy, pain) and within hours I was hospitalized and stuck there for a week. Years later I had a bladder infection which came on slowly but was told by my doctor to avoid any sexual relations for a week.

I keepp live acidophilus capsules in the fridge at all times now. I've been off and on antibiotics since April and they do seem to help. The live bacteria works well for me...the regular dry stuff does not.

maybe i'm just a hypochondriac but i just prefer to go see a doctor for peace of mind if i think i have something. and if she's constantly ill, maybe there's some deeper issue.

i wouldn't just brush it off so easily...

just my two pennies.

I'm not always sick. He just thinks that. But the pain was only for one night and it hasn't come back. Most likely just a strain from doing legs.
