Toilet question

Former Member

On saturday i thought i had cystitis, even though ive not had it before. But now im not so sure, because i dont need to go that much more often, and the stinging sensations comes afterwards followed by a very small amount of bright red blood.

That sound like cystitis??

Former Member

IIRC blood doesn't go with cysitis, and they say the first time you should see a doctor anyway. Be prepared to do a urine sample when you go.

Former Member

Any sign of blood i would be straight to the doc.

Former Member

bugger.

hmm only other thing i can think is that it might be caused by sex??
Iv only been with my boyfriend for 2 months and, it doesnt hurt, but sometimes certain positions are a little uncomfortable. Is it possible that sort of thing could cause any problems?
But then surely i would bleed at any time and not just after having a wee?

Former Member

Wheres the blood coming from? As that would tell you if its from peeing or something else.
Either way, i think you should go see a doctor.

Former Member

think its from peeing, but its strange coz its not actually in it, its just afterwards.
thanks. ill try get an appointment

Former Member

hm, i had something similar a few months ago. It stung to pee but i wasn't going more often. I didn't have the blood. But mine came 2 weeks after i first had sex. If it was related or not i don't know. But if theres blood then get checked.

cystitis is an bacterial infection most commonly from having unprotected anal sex then unprotected vaginal sex. Have you done that?

erm no hun, its not, there is a possibilty you could get it from there, but its not most commonly!
It can be many things, excess cleaning yourself with perfumed products, or on the other hand I had it and worked out it was having lots of sex
It can even be when you need a wee, but 'hold on' instead.
But sikorah, I dont think it is cystitis so id pop to the doctors and get it checked.
I did go through a phase though of bleeding after sex, so it could just be that, but go to the drs anyway.

Former Member

You can get bleeding with cystitus but with any blood in urine you need to get checked out by a doctor as it can have any number of causes.

Hope you feel better soon

source?

Former Member

thanks everyone.

Its certainly nothing to do with anal sex, whether that info is true or not.

ill go docs tomorrow i think.

Former Member

Just for anyones future reference it is a urinary tract infection.

Former Member

Similar symptons but not quite the same then.

Hope it clears up soon.
