Please help! I had a UTI infection 3 years ago at the end of a relationship. I tested myself for everything as the UTI was accompanied by a terrible sweat smell that was completely different to my regular. I tested positive for mycoplasma hominis which I cleared but my urgency to urinate nor my awful smell ever cleared up. Any advice?

I first read about these only a few years ago, so I assume they were discovered only recently. The article I read should have addressed how widespread they are. Maybe it wasn't known then and is now?
@LiveUTIFree13 күн бұрын
The urinary microbiome was discovered in 2014. Prior to that it was believed the urine/bladder were sterile. So while biofilms were well documented prior to this, research into biofilms in the bladder is more recent.

Enterococcus faecalis doesn't convert nitrates to nitrites and therefore dip stick screening is useless. Unless a biofilm disrupter (must be a fibrinolytic) is used prior to collection, no test will find pathogens embedded in biofilms.

After six years of a UTI and antibiotics once a year that did not work I read that some were using boric acid called Boric Life capsules so I got some. The applicators to insert them into the vagina. They were here for two months before I again saw where they worked many times for a UTI. So I used it one day and then waited for two days and did it again It has been three weeks EVERYTHING IS GONE it worked after six years of suffering. I have NOT been using D-Mannose 30.00 a month or cranberry now for a week and NO signs of any UTI for six years I could not miss one DAY. I am 71 and can't believe we must work hard to find things that work for our bodies to get well. All they want to do is manage and keep us buying more and more stuff.

Do symptoms always mean an infection that needs antibiotics? 2 cultures of proteus positive. What about when there has been the one dose of Fosfomycin and symptoms lightened but never went away then 1 moth and a half later a 2 x’s a day for 5 days of Cefuroxime taken and again symptoms lightened but didn’t clear up and ultimately returned to very uncomfortable level?

I have had 3 to 4 UTIs (all e-coli)every year for the past 3 years. I have tried all over-the-counter aids. Still get them. I am now resistant to Nitrofurantoin after 3 weeks on it and still have the infection. Just put me on Cipro and I'm a bit nervous. Complete hysterectomy over 20 years ago and take Estradiol and also use Estrogen cream. My husband died 3 years ago so there is no sex. I'm at my wit's end as I am the only caretaker for my 91-year-old mother and cannot keep getting ill. I worry that I'll become resistant to more antibiotics or have to deal with side effects as I've been prescribed so much. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Glad to see you're allowing comments (at least on this video.)

As the doctor says, we each think we're the only one with the experience because, without social media, there's no way to hear each other's stories.
