cystitis from sex

Two months ago I started seeing a lovely new man. The sex is fantastic! However, I'm paying for it BIG TIME. Currently I'm holding off my FOURTH round of UTI in about 6 weeks. I'm determined this time to not have to get antibiotics! I'm experiencing no pain, but just constant pressure. I'm taking close to 200g of cranberry extract tablets a day, Ural, water water and MORE water! I dont know what else to do. My doctor has told me about going to the bathroom straight after - it seems to work, but I have to literally LEAP off the bed the minute we've finished having sex. This round I'm SURE has come around because I didn't get up for about 15 minutes afterwards. I haven't taken antibiotics for YEARS and am a little bit appalled that in the last month I've had 3 different courses! And I haven't even STARTED on the thrush that came to visit as a result of all the antibiotics. There has to be a better way! I really like this guy, and am willing to consider any ongoing natural remedies in order to teach my body how to fight this on it's own - any advice? Any ladies in long term relationships that have had to deal with this with their partners?

    Only have a bout of Cystitis after having sex with my partner of 20yrs, dont know why it started, Dont think it was even after sex the first time, prescribed antibiotics which gave me thrush {cleared with yogurt} live abroad now and can buy 'Ciprofloxacin' an antibiotic over the counter which gives instant relief, could the original infection be passed back to me by my partner? looked on net for male cystitis, surely he could still be passing it back to me :oops:
