Question 1

can clitoral masturbation cause uti? pain morning after foreplay with husband. also had a lot of spicy food and coffee yesterday.

Accepted Answer

Possible: It's possible. the urethra is short and it's possible to get a UTI with aggressive manipulation. The urethra is just below the clitoris. Push fluids and see if it doesn't improve on its own, but if you get more symptoms of a UTI like urinary frequency you should get checked and treated.

Question 2

can a man get a uti from a woman during sex?if a man has the uti, can he pass it to the female during sex?  i am getting conflicting answers on this.

Accepted Answer

Transmitting UTI's: During sex is really unlikely but i suppose it could happen but wouldn't be able to explain it.   Men simply don't get uti's from sex due to the length of their urethra.  Women get it all the time due to their short urethra.  A UTI won't be transmitted from the man to the woman but a condition could be created during sex that predisposed the woman to getting a uti.

Accepted Answer

These : These are concerning symptoms and you need to be tested for infection.  You should have a complete gynecological evaluation and get tested for chlamydia and gonorrhea.  Please use condoms to prevent infeciton.  If you get increased pain, vomiting, or fever, then you would need to be seen immediately.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

Varies: Some women begin having frequent uti's after becoming sexually active.  If your symptoms are occuring usually after having sex, a suppressive antibiotic to take when you have sex would be appropriate.  If that is not the issue you should see a urologist for evaluation and treatment.
