Weird Things You Know How To Do If You Get Urinary Tract Infections

Feeling Resentment If A UTI Develops After Sex

Many women with frequent UTIs admit to feeling resentment if they develop a UTI after having sex. They know their partner is not at fault. But they also feel upset that they have to suffer from the pain of an infection while their partner gets to continue on with life uninterrupted. Whereas men may simply get to enjoy the memory of a romantic night of sex, women who develop a UTI have to take cranberry pills, drink cranberry juice, and ingest antibiotics while hoping their condition clears up within a few days. During this time, they experience pelvic pain, burning, and spasms every time they go pee.

Being Secretly Jealous Of Men

Some women are jealous of men because they do not get premenstrual syndrome or a period every month and they do not have to experience the pain of childbirth. However, women with frequent UTIs may be secretly jealous of men because they do not have a vagina where bacteria can enter and infect the entire urinary tract. It may make these women feel better to know that although it happens rarely, men get UTIs too. But because UTIs are much more common among women, it may be impossible to eliminate all feelings of jealousy that women with frequent UTIs have toward men. For some women, it may help to know that their partner does not enjoy the times they have a UTI and may suffer in his own way along with them.
