So I’ve been getting recurring UTIs for about 9 months and it all started after I got my copper coil. However looking into it more I realised they also started right at the 3 year mark of me being vegan (when supposedly deficiencies catch up to you). Potentially I am deficient in something and it just made me more prone to UTIs. Out of pure hopelessness and always being in pain I thought let’s maybe eat some eggs. Not to mention I also had intense egg cravings also. Never really liked eggs before I was vegan and suddenly it’s all I wanted. So I listened to my body and it seems to have paid off. Not overly sure how but maybe there is a link. Maybe it’s something to do with b12. I’ve been able to have sex whenever and as often as I like and not get painful UTIs. It’s been fabulous. This is no negativity towards a vegan diet. I think, well im sure im doing something wrong because im not getting everything I need. This may be related to the fact im at uni on a budget too and that I can’t be arsed to care about what im eating. However, to just not have UTIs is fabulous.

Then again it may not be the eggs. Maybe its a placebo or maybe it’s actually because I started to pee before sex as well as after. So it’s hard to say what has caused what but im just glad I feel better. I don’t care how it happened. I will eventually cut out eggs again but im enjoying living my life happily right now.
