More and more couples pay great attention to the health of their children, so they will choose a special period of time to prepare for pregnancy. During the pregnancy preparation period, both husband and wife should quit smoking and drinking. This will help the fertilized egg to combine better and give birth to a healthy baby. However, during the period of preparing for pregnancy, many women will also have the problem of urethral infection. So what should women do if they have a urinary tract infection during pregnancy? What to do if you have a urinary tract infection during pregnancy What should I do if I have a urinary tract infection while preparing for pregnancy? If you have a urinary tract infection while preparing for pregnancy but are not yet pregnant, it is recommended that you stop preparing for pregnancy and wait until the treatment is complete before preparing for pregnancy again. Because the use of antibiotics has an impact on the development of the fetus. Pay attention to drinking plenty of water, rest more, exercise moderately, pay attention to hygiene and cleanliness, and prevent infection. Urinary tract infections are also prone to recurrence. You can prevent urinary tract infections by: 1. Wash frequently: Wash your lower body with warm water before going to bed and after defecation. The cleaning order should be to wash the external genitalia first and then the anus to avoid cross infection. Both husband and wife should develop the habit of washing every night. Towels, basins, and foot cloths should be separate, and the towels for washing feet and vulva should also be separate. 2. Moderate sexual life: Frequent or unclean sexual life can lead to urinary tract infection. Especially for pregnant women with a history of urinary tract infection, it is best to avoid sexual intercourse during pregnancy. If conditions permit, both men and women should take a shower or wash their lower body with warm water before having sex. After sex, the woman should empty her bladder to flush the urethra and reduce infection. 3. Don’t hold urine: Holding urine too much will cause the urine to concentrate and irritate the bladder mucosa, leading to illness. 4. Eat scientifically and drink plenty of water: Drinking plenty of water can enhance the diuretic effect and the immune function of the kidneys, and by flushing the urethra, it is beneficial to the excretion of bacteria and toxins. During pregnancy, you should drink 1500 to 2000 ml of water every day; eat more fresh fruits and fruit juice drinks, and eat less spicy and irritating foods such as onions, leeks, garlic, pepper, ginger, etc. to reduce irritation to the urinary tract. Quit smoking and drinking. Avoid warm foods such as mutton, dog meat, rabbit meat and greasy foods. |
