Do you want to know why the treatment regimes haven't worked for you longterm? Do you want to avoid infections at all cost? Then this post is for you. Which is everyone!


  Personally I used to brag about how I have never had an infection especially these Urinary tract infection that just seem to be all over the place. Until one day I started noticing some light pains around my pelvic regions. Being someone that's really in tune with my body, I knew it was strange but shrugged it off as one of menstrual cycle thing. It was a busy period for me and I just didn't have the time to sit and think. Anyway the pain will be sharp then go down after some whiles, it continued for days. I would just pop some paracetamol and it would disappear. But as days went by the pain started becoming more persistent and painful. The paracetamol wasn't working so I switched it up to ibuprofen and it still wasn't working. Thanks to a friend at that time I got some 100mg tramadol. He just kept bragging about how no pain could withstand tramadol and stuff like that. Peeps that's how I finished one pack of the tramadol in two days oh and still yet it couldn't combat the pain. Sharp, sharp I drop everything I was doing and went straight to the hospital. Low and behold after several test it was discovered I had UTI. I got my prescription from the doctor and went home. I took the drugs and like magic in three hours I could stand straight because the pain had reduced.

   I could have died from that intense pain oh. I don't know how people can go through that torture over prolong period of time because of negligence. For me I just couldn't and since then I take as many precautions which I've found to be really helpful. In the list below are a compilation of some dos that have benefitted a large number of people and are easy regime to actually maintain.

1. After using the toilet always wash your bum and private thoroughly with clean water instead of toilet paper that are houses to germs.
2.  Wash your hands thoroughly regularly especially after using the toilet.
3. For ladies never wash your privates with soaps of any kind. I see females catching infections regularly all because they are using one pussy tightening, sweeting or pussy freshening soap. All these soaps do is give you loads of infections. Most especially the antiseptic ones.
4. Practice good personal hygiene. Bathing regularly and washing of the privates with just clean water a good number of times a day keeps infections at bay.
5. Always make sure to keep personal toilets clean at all times as they are the sure set breeding ground for infections.
6. Wear clean undies. This cannot be overemphasised.
7. Always visit a doctor when you feel something's wrong. Don't self medicate.
8. Practice safe sex
9. Don't share personal items like towels and undies
10. When you feel itchy on your privates and want to scratch, its best you watch your hands then as you scratch you wash with water. Instead of scratching through your undies and spreading the infection.
11. Always avoid damp undies. As wet privates is a breading ground for infections.
12. Brush your teeth's regularly.
13. Always wash your privates after sex.

During menstrual period always try to be very neat and clean. Avoid using one pad for prolonged lengths of time and always dispose them off properly too.
