Question 1

long ago woman advised to drink cow urine for menopause, was it safe? still worried

Accepted Answer

Not very: I think you might be thinking about horse urine, which is what the drug Premarin (conjugated estrogens) (pregnant mare urine) used to be made from. Drinking urine may not be dangerous but there's no good reason to do it. Pregnant animal urine will contain some level of estrogen but you'd never know how much. There are much better and safer ways to get estrogen and it shouldn't be taken without  progestin for most women.

Question 2

what happens if i drink urine from a woman with uti or other bacteria?

Accepted Answer

Don't drink urine...: Drinking another person's urine is not in general a healthy practice, and i would discourage it.  If the urine is infected with bacteria or viruses, it would be possible for the person drinking the urine to acquire infections.   Enjoy intimacy, but try not drink body fluids from others to minimize risk of spreading diseases.
