Hello! I'm a girl of 14. I was at sea in Turkey 3 years ago and I had no idea what would happen to me. I developed cystitis. The first time it was hellishly painful but I was only 11 and I was ashamed to tell my father (my mother lives abroad and has nothing to do) So the first time I drank water with vinegar and after 7 days it disappeared. The bad thing is that I often get it now if I have a cold or I am in a cycle. The last days of the cycle are unbearable. I read about Urinal Acute, but I bought Feminella Uroforte and there was no result. I often go with bigger daily bandages because it happens to drop 2-3 drops. This is a very big burden for me. Please don't tell my father because there's no way. Another option I think is to go to a gynecologist, but I'm a little ashamed and I don't know what the procedure is and whether it can be done without a parent. Absolutely any advice will be useful to me.

Cystitis is an infection of the bladder caused by bacteria or other microorganisms in the urine. The problem is that if left untreated, it becomes chronic and can lead to serious complications. It can even happen that the infection gets to the kidneys and then it gets scary! Other times, chronic cystitis is not due to bacteria, but to the sensitivity of the bladder, which is expressed through inflammation. Cystitis is not a gynecological problem. You just have to go to your GP. Most likely, he will send you for a urine test to determine the cause of the cyst. If they find bacteria, they will prescribe you an antibiotic. If you have chronic inflammation, you will be prescribed something else. Remember the following rules and follow them and you will see that they help a lot: 1. Drink plenty of fluids! 2 liters of water per day, ie 8 glasses of 250 ml. or 10 by 200 ml. If it is difficult for you to drink so much water, it can be juice, tea, compote ... The important thing is not to keep urine in the bladder for a long time, because that is when bacteria start to develop. If you pee often, even if there are some bacteria, they will not have time to multiply. 2. Never squeeze. You pee, right in the bathroom. Don't procrastinate. If you're in class, don't hesitate to ask to go to the bathroom. 3. Eat cranberries. They have many useful properties and prevent the development of cystitis. They sell them in organic stores. I recommend that you look for them frozen and thaw them in a water bath at home. Frozen retain their properties best. But if you don't find them frozen, you can find them dried or in juice. 4. Beware of colds. Make sure your waist is always covered when it is cold and do not stay current. In the summer when you go to the pool or the sea, do not stay with a wet swimsuit. Wear a dry one to change. I have taken monural (fosfomycin) for cystitis for two days in a row and it helped me immediately. But this is an antibiotic and you need a doctor to prescribe it.
Drinking a lot of water helps me. Drink at least 2 liters a day.
Dear child, you must visit a nephrologist. This is a specialist who deals with diseases of the kidneys and bladder. I have had cystitis several times in a year and I know what a pain it is. Very often the cause is Escherichia coli. You need to test your urine to see if you have bacteria, and once your cystitis has become chronic, you almost certainly have it. This is difficult to treat and will not pass without an antibiotic, I tell you from experience. Go to the doctor, you will get in trouble!
Cystitis in women is very easy to treat. There are devices (such as those for making enemas), so these irrigators are used to flush the bladder. There are many options for rinsing, with herbs (chamomile, sumac, fig leaves, garlic tea, if you are not allergic, the most effective is propolis tincture mixed with water. Even with ordinary brandy, it will still have an effect. trample with chemistry, so you ruin your liver and kidneys. The urethra is only 5 cm, not like a man over 20 cm. This is a great advantage for women, which helps them to be easily treated, but also easily infected, namely because of the short urethra.
