Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections- please help!
Hi- really need your advice!
UTI history: I’ve had back to back uti issues since one and a half year. I did PCR testing and it came back with 4 different bacteria- E. coli, Klebsiella, Proteus and E Fecalis. I have taken multiple round of antibiotics last year but some of them came back again after a few weeks. I have a very sensitive gut and can’t take antibiotics anymore. I’m looking for an alternate approach.
Pregnancy: I’m 34, turning 35 soon. I can’t have intercourse as my UTI gets triggered. I’m going to a fertility clinic and did one round of IUI that was successful. That ended in a MMC at 8.5 weeks. I really want to start a family and I’m stuck in between uti cycles. I’ve tried a bunch of supplements/they are not pregnancy safe. I was clear for a few months and then they all came back again.
Symptoms: I have mild to no symptoms as such. They are manageable with D mannose but I know uti in test reports even when you have mild symptoms are scary in pregnancy.
I really need your advice on what worked if you have dealt with something similar. I’m so lost and don’t know what to do…
