Question

I have had urgency to urinate and been unable to fully empty my bladder for two months. No pain , sometimes urine is very dark..?

Answer 1

Prostatitis likely: Your symptom fits the profile of prostatitis. If the prostate swells, it triggers pain. Such pain can involve the tip of the penis, groins, testicles, low back and perineum. Urgency/frequency of urination and a variable stream may also occur. You may notice worsening erections or a discharge from the penis with bowel movements. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, see a urologist.

Answer 2

Yes: A simple bladder infection in pregnancy can be treated with antibiotics over the course of 7 days typically. Prolonged antibiotic therapy is not usually necessary unless an infection involving the kidney has been diagnosed and initially managed with treatment doses of antibiotics. Following treatment, a lower dose antibiotic may be used to prevent recurrence for the remainder of the pregnancy.

Answer 3

Yes: A urinary tract infection is usually treated with a short course of antibiotics, so it would be unusual to take them for the entire pregnancy unless there is a specific reason. Ask your doctor.

Answer 4

?not need 4 29 weeks: Amoxicillin is quite safe during pregnancy, Macrodantin (nitrofurantoin) is also most likely safe. But why to you think you need to be on antibiotics for the rest of your pregnancy? More like ly not reuired the whole time unless you have bladder reflux. Please discuss with your OB dr, goods luck.

Answer 5

Pills may help: There are basically 3 different types of urine leakage: stress, urge and overflow. They cause leaking with different situations and are treated very differently. Urge incontinence will respond to medication, the other 2 types won't. Both stress and urge may get better with physical therapy.

Answer 6

Many options: I would suggest an evaluation by a provider who focuses on urinary incontinence. This may be either a urologist, urogynecologist or gynecologists. There are many potential treatments once the final diagnosis has been determined.

Answer 7

See a gynecologist: Urinary incontinence is very common and there are many treatments available. The treatment depends on the cause of the leaking. Your gynecologist can do the necessary testing or refer you to someone who can more completely evaluate your symptoms.

Answer 8

Depends.: If you leak most often with activities like coughing, laughing or sneezing then you probably have stress incontinence. Leaking with a strong urge to urinate usually indicates bladder spasms or urge incontinence. Their are many treatment options available for your leaking and you should not have to wear diapers. You can start the evaluation with your gyn.

Answer 9

Only if not treated: It myths culture and proof of cure.

Answer 10

Kidney infection: May cause premature labor. Thus baby might have problems associated with prematurity, but otherwise should not be harmed.

Answer 11

Several issues: The womb & bag of waters separate baby from your UTI so there are no direct risk to baby. The exception would be is you had a leaking bag & germs got in it (rare in early or mid pregnancy) baby is at risk to your infections that have a blood phase like a flu or measles. Your dr will rx with a med that doesn't hurt baby & hopefully the infection doesn't trigger early labor.

Answer 12

No: Cranberry juice acidifys the urine which makes it harder for some bacteria to grow. There are also substances in cranberries thought to make it difficult for bacteria to get established.

Answer 13

Not a myth: Cranberries contain a chemical, proanthocyanidin, which interferes with the ability of bacteria, especially e.Coli (most common species of bacteria to cause urinary tract infections) from adhering to the bladder lining. Bacteria are thus flushed out urination and are unlikely to cause a uti. Excellent research article published in new england journal of medicine 3 or 4 years ago proving this.

Answer 14

Mouth to penis CPR?: It is unlikely to transmit chlamydia unless the woman's mouth is already infected. In that case, it could produce a reaction(cpr). The mouth is rife with bacteria as opposed to the "cleaner" vagina, so before one "biblically knows" a partner, it is a great idea to know your partner well and remain monogamous.

Answer 15

Unlikely: The sexually transmitted form of chlamydia is localized the gential and urinary tracts.

Answer 16

Possible: In general, not likely. However, chlamydia can be found in the oral cavity due to oral sex with someone infected with chlamydia or from other contacts. I there is then oral sex and enough innoculation, the male can get urethral infection from the saliva and oral mucosa.
