Can women have sex if they have urinary tract infection?

Sexual life is very normal for adults, but for people who have little knowledge of sex, there are many aspects that they will not pay attention to, which can easily lead to diseases. So what should they pay attention to? 1. Sexual life requires the consent of both parties. 2. The external genitalia should be cleaned before and after sexual intercourse. 3. Avoid drinking cold water after sex. 4. No sexual intercourse during menstruation, etc. If a woman has a urinary tract infection, can she still have sex?

Whether sexual intercourse can cause a urinary tract infection in women depends on the health of both spouses. Because germs cannot enter the urinary tract of healthy couples, sexual intercourse between healthy couples is safe. If either party's genitals are inflamed or infected, the bacteria can take the opportunity to invade the other party's or one's own urinary tract and cause inflammation.

Why are married women more likely to get urinary tract infections than unmarried women? Can women still have sex after having a urinary tract infection? Whether sexual intercourse will cause urinary tract infections in women depends on the health status of both husband and wife. Because germs cannot enter the urinary tract of healthy couples, sexual intercourse between healthy couples is safe. If either party's genitals are inflamed or infected, the bacteria can take the opportunity to invade the other party's or one's own urinary tract and cause inflammation.

First, don't have sexual intercourse too frequently. Secondly, if women urinate within 15 minutes after sexual intercourse, they can flush out the bacteria that are squeezed into the bladder or brought into the urethra during sexual intercourse, which will undoubtedly help prevent urinary tract infections. But some women are not aware of this, and are accustomed to urinating before sexual intercourse and falling asleep after sexual intercourse without taking any measures. This will only increase the risk of urinary tract infection.

Furthermore, it is also important to choose the right contraceptive method. Survey data from relevant experts also show that no matter how frequent their sexual life is, women who use contraceptive tools such as vaginal diaphragms are at a greater risk of urinary tract infections than those who take birth control pills. What is the reason? It turns out that in the process of placing or removing contraceptive tools, the bacteria in the vagina will be brought to the vaginal opening; or the diaphragm is too large, so it compresses the bladder, which reduces the bladder's urination reflex and cannot completely empty the urine, resulting in urine retention, providing good conditions for bacterial growth and reproduction; and causes local ischemia of the bladder, allowing bacteria to take the opportunity to invade. Therefore, you should be careful when choosing contraceptive tools. Vaginal diaphragms and condoms should be of similar models and sizes, and should be cleaned and disinfected to avoid bringing bacteria into the urogenital tract.

Therefore, for people suffering from urinary tract infection, it is best not to have sex. If you have sex, you are likely to get infected. Therefore, for the sake of your own health, you still need to pay attention. For women, it is safest to have sex three days after the menstrual period ends. Men still need to take care of their women for their health.
