Look up D-Mannose. It's seriously a live saver. It actually gets rid of the bacteria (most common is E.coli, so if you have another form of bacteria it might not work). I had a recurring UTI last 6 months and several rounds of Cipro and started taking D-Mannose pills and drink a glass of non-sweetened cranberry juice a day and thankfully haven't had it come back yet! If you are TTC I will only lay low for at most 10 mins, then I my bladder right away and if I'm feeling really irritated I'll pop a few D-Mannose pills or drink a glass of cranberry juice. Best decision I've ever made!

I had chronic UTIs until i started taking cranberry pills twice a day and now i dont get them! And theyre safe during pregnancy!

I used to get them all the time until my doctor was like do you pee right after having sex and I didn't! Now I wait like 5 minutes or so and then pee. Haven't had one since! We are also ttc and she said peeing right after won't effect sperm travel but I still wait.
