Do you ever get urinary tract infections and then after taking antibiotics for it, get a yeast infection?

Question

Helpful advice for girls who get both of them comment below

Answer

I personally don't.  But one of my good friends, every time she takes and antibiotic she gets a yeast infection.  She always has the dr prescribe an oral yeast infection pill.  She said she waits to see if she needs it but needs it every time.  It's actually common.  You have to think about how an antibiotic works.  It kills bacteria.  You have good and bad bacteria.  Killing the good bacteria allows yeast to run wild.  You are not alone if you get a yeast infection on antibiotics.  Hope I have helped 😊

Answer

No but I did just manage to have a bladder infection and yeast infection at the same time. Advice from my doctor was to stagger taking my antibiotic for the bladder and eating yogurt. All clear after a week.

Answer

My Dr always recommends eating yogurt every day I’m on antibiotics to avoid it. It’s worked so far 🤷🏼‍♀️
