A member asked:
Why do i have frequent recurrent uti noted esp after coitus with a partner for 2 years, but we always practice good hygiene?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
UTI: The penis in the vaginal barrel may place mild trauma on the urethra (tube from bladder out) and this can predispose to UTI because of physiologic "obstruction". This can be partially diminished with antibiotic prophylaxis in low doses. Discuss with your doctor.
