Driving cystitis treatment depends on the cause of the disease. The most common form of cystitis - cystitis caused by a bacterial infection - is treated with antibiotics, and the scheme of treatment of noninfectious cystitis is selected depending on its cause.

The scheme treatment of bacterial cystitis

The first phase of the treatment of cystitis, provoked by bacteria - perform urinalysis to determine the pathogen and the administration of appropriate antimicrobials in view of possible bacterial resistance to certain types of antibiotics. From the test results depends not only on the choice of antibiotics and duration of treatment, usually from three to seven days.

Typically, the symptoms of cystitis Cystitis - symptoms: spasms, cramps and discomfort   significantly improved within one to two days after the start of drug treatment of infection, however, depending on the degree of neglect of the disease must take antibiotics for three to seven days without breaks and stops. Whatever the total duration of treatment, a course of antibiotics should be completed in order to prevent re-return of the symptoms and reduce the risk of chronic cystitis.

For the treatment of chronic cystitis Treatment of chronic cystitis: a double blow   require a longer course of antibiotics, or if symptoms of cystitis are aggravated after sexual intercourse, receiving special postcoital antibiotics for two hours after intercourse.

Particularly challenging is becoming the treatment of bacterial infections in case when infection occurred in hospital - as a rule, in such cases, there is a resistance caused cystitis Cystitis: urgently take action   bacteria to most types of antibiotics the most common and thus require treatment with other drugs.

The scheme treatment of interstitial cystitis

In the case of interstitial cystitis exact cause of inflammation of the bladder, causing the characteristic symptoms of cystitis is unknown, and therefore a specific regimen of cystitis, versatile and efficient in all cases, does not exist. Interstitial cystitis treatment becomes the primary objective suppression of disease symptoms and signs. The main treatments for interstitial cystitis Interstitial cystitis - treatment: how to get rid of pain   are:

• Drugs used orally or introducing directly into the bladder
• Specific procedures for the suppression of inflammatory processes of bladder and relief of symptoms - such as the expansion of the bladder or surgery
• Stimulation of nerve endings, the estimated impact on the nerve endings of the weak electric discharge to reduce pain and reduce the frequency of urination

Treatment of other forms of cystitis

If a hypersensitivity to certain chemicals in cosmetics and personal hygiene products - such as gels for intimate hygiene, spermicidal lubricant - prevent cystitis and relieve the symptoms of the disease can be, giving up such products.

Treatment of cystitis, which developed as a complication of chemotherapy or radiation therapy aimed at the suppression of pain - usually with the help of painkillers and irrigation of the bladder, stimulating "washout" from the bladder irritants. In most cases, cystitis caused by radiotherapy or chemotherapy, alone passes after completion of treatment.

There is this kind of cystitis. Sometimes this disease sex life becomes a real torture. But if at the time when the first occurrence of the disease it has been properly treated, the woman for him would have been long forgotten. The truth is on one condition: if it complied with all the rules of personal hygiene.

Why cystitis begins after sex

Cystitis after sex - is a disease of women, as they have short and wide urethra and infection from the rectum or external genitalia may fall along the urethra into the bladder. This path is called an ascending infection. The risk of infection increases with rising anomalies location opening of the urethra (the hole located very low or even in the wall of the vagina). In men, the infection rising through the bladder does not get, because they have a long, narrow and winding the urethra (urethritis).

In most cases, cystitis Cystitis: urgently take action   after sex is a consequence of non-compliance with hygiene rules. Most often, the infection is introduced during the first sexual intercourse and the woman begins cystitis. If cystitis occurs with severe symptoms, the woman turns to the doctor if the symptoms erased, then, she is just not pay attention to the infection for a long time "settled" in the bladder.

Infectious agents in this disease is often Escherichia coli, streptococci, staphylococci, and other organisms that live in the intestines and are part of both opportunistic and normal intestinal microflora. For example, some types of E. coli in the intestine to help digest food. In the bladder, the same E. coli multiplies rapidly adheres to the mucosal cells of the bladder, it is being implemented and causes inflammation.

The culprit cystitis after sex may be a violation of the normal vaginal flora The microflora of the vagina: purity   - Dysbiosis or bacterial vaginosis. At the same time the vagina multiplies pathogenic microflora (for example, gardnerelly), which at any time can cause inflammation in the area. Bacterial vaginosis during intercourse pathogenic microflora can get into the bladder with sperm.

Finally, agents cystitis after sex can be sexually transmitted infections (STIs). If that does not treat cystitis time, then eventually it becomes chronic cystitis and replaced STI pathogens comes ordinary (non-specific) infection.

How is cystitis after sex

Cystitis after sex is different from the usual cystitis fact that its aggravation are clearly related to sex. This is due to the trauma of the urethra, against the background of rapid sexual intercourse, or just a regular sex life.

Aggravation begins in a few hours (sometimes a day) after sexual intercourse. Women have frequent painful urination, sometimes up to several tens of hours. At the end of urination may occur one - two drops of blood. All of this takes place in a few days and resumed after the new sex.

Constant communication with the exacerbation of cystitis sexual life makes family relationships sometimes almost impossible, and the majority of women suffering from this form of cystitis causes neurosis Neurosis - reaction to the nervous shock . And yet, many continue to treat cystitis independently folk remedies or antibiotics without prescription, and laboratory testing. This can only make the problem worse, since cause intestinal and vaginal bacteria overgrowth.

Diagnosis and treatment of cystitis after sex

First of all, you should consult a urologist. Already on the basis of the examination he could identify the cause of the phenomenon (the wrong location meatus).

In addition, the urologist necessarily prescribe blood tests and urine tests, urine culture to culture media for the detection of the infectious agent and its sensitivity to antibiotics. A must view the survey in chronic cystitis is a cystoscopy - Inspect the inside surface of the bladder with an optical instrument - a cystoscope. This examination reveals how to develop an inflammatory process and the condition of the bladder wall. If necessary, carry out ultrasound and X-ray examination of the bladder, as well as determine how its function is reduced.

Treatment is carried out under laboratory control. Prescribe antibiotics (both internally and topically), plentiful drink, tools to improve blood circulation in this area, strengthen the immune system, thermal, and physical therapy. The complex treatment includes special physiotherapy for strengthening the pelvic floor muscles.

If the cause of cystitis after sex is an abnormal location of meatus, the operations are carried out for raising this opening up of 1-2 cm.

Cystitis after sex - a chronic cystitis Chronic cystitis: a correct diagnosis - the main , Based on anatomical changes are often so alone it is almost impossible to cure.
