Burning feeling urethra always the next day after sex?

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hey guys I'm a 25 year old female. Been sexually active since age 20. As soon as I became sexually active I got utis. Not every time I have sex but anytime I do one thing wrong I get a uti after sex. Nothing else has ever caused them for me. Anyway since April something weird has been going on. I started the year with a uti in January got better, didnt have one in February then early March got one cleared it...had another by April 1st. The one In April I was prescribed Bactrim and was feeling fine on it...the second to last day of the mess I felt a slight twinge of pain again after peeing...which is weird cause Bactrim always works. But it wasn't that bad so I left it but something never felt right in my vagina/urethra area. I didn't go back to the doc though. It didnt feel bad enough, but strangely after sex whether we used lube or not I got a bad burning the next day. Like a uti but not quite. Its been that way since April. So a couple weeks ago I burned after sex but knew it was a uti and got diagnosed with one and took macrobid for 7 days...just had sex last night and am in burning pain today...not in my vagina but around the urethra it seems...and if it goes like all the other times it will feel ok by tomorrow...another thing it doesnt burn when I pee its just like an ache that stays constant and feels irritated. Nothing looks red or inflamed though. I'm sure im leaving something out, but please let me know if anyone has experiemced something similar!

    unfortunately I had the same problem for 10 years

    I don’t have sex now and haven’t for 5 years(understanding Husband) it was no water infection versus sex and I am afraid being without the constant burning won

    Take D mannose it really works as a preventative medication

    My friends take 2 after sex and say it helps prevent uti

    I take it daily 1 -3 a day depending on my symptoms

    I was antibiotics free for 1 year
