So I am in peri.... when I first started noticing changes my periods were every two weeks coming from being every 28 days like clockwork, so of course I had changed several times then I started having my period every 23 days or round abouts...that has happened for about a year but it would be 2 days of heavy and one day light, so thought I was heading out of my period slowly. This last period I had came on day 30, first day was very light then very heavy for two days, and then two days of a light period... my urine started to smell funny and now I have an UTI. I never get UTI's.... can anyone share with me their experiences with this. I haven't got to a doctor. I am keeping my fluids up and using URAL although its not really agreeing with my stomach. Why on earth does this happen to us?
i just got over a UTI a few weeks ago ive had three since entering this stage of life from my understanding when we lose our estrogen we are more prone to UTI and yeast infections. i tried to wait mine out but it got bad had to have an antibiotic dont wait too long can get worse fast
thank you…I am thinking if its no better by morning, I will head to the doctor. I don’t tolerate antibiotics too well… but have to do something. Will go to one of those services where you sit there and wait hours. I have had worse ones when I was young but am aware that I am older and it is riskier.
I had never had UTI up until peri. I suggest definitely see your gp. You might need an antibiotics. There was a phase i kept getting it. It settled a bit now. All the best.
