I frequently get a bladder infection after sexual intercourse. What is the reason and what can I do?
Probably (unprotected) sexual intercourse disturbs the balance of the vaginal bacteria and results in an overgrowth of coccoid bacteria. These can travel up into the urethra into the bladder and cause a bladder infection. It is advisable to urinate after sexual intercourse. It is also advisable to douche after intercourse and restore the vaginal acidity with Multi-Gyn ActiGel. Take care to empty your bladder thoroughly while urinating.
