    I made a lot of changes since last April and haven't had a uti since. I think what helped me the most was having a lab test done at the time to find out exactly which bacteria was the culprit, and taking the right antibiotic proven effective against it. I think I keep it away by regularly taking probiotics( for colon and vagina), staying away from spicy food (which irritates my bladder), using a hand held bidet, and basically boiling my underwear.

    Keep experimenting.

    Someone on another site said when she stopped using bleached tp and fem products, she stopped getting uti's. 

    Uti's are so frustrating and painful!
