    I used to have a very very bad UTI and got it very often...when I was married..no matther how clean you are, or how careful you are, if your partner doesn't have a good hygiene you'll get UTI, that's what happened to me..since my divorce I haven't had any sexual relationship with anyone, and guess what...I have never had UTI ever again..got rid of the bad husband and the bad infection...and it feels great ladies...

    Urinal infection is so common among those who didnt dring enough liquids. I was having experience of kidney and urinal infection from time to time. I have seen many doctors and all adviced me to drink water. The more water you drink, the more urine you dispose. When I was in china, I visited an old Chineese Medicine Doctor and he told me (water is the only nature medecine to use).
