Female urethritis
Urethritis is essentially a urethral infection. Bacteria cause urethritis in the urethra. Our common bacterial infections are E. coli and gastrointestinal bacteria. Due to the special physiological structure of women, the positions of the urethra, vagina, and anus are very close, which can easily cause cross infection of bacteria. Viral and bacterial infections are the most common causes of urethritis. In addition, early recovery from a major illness, postpartum delivery, and other severe inflammations in the body can also cause urethritis.
What are the main symptoms of female urethritis
Women suffering from urethritis have symptoms of frequent urination, always wanting to urinate, and can only urinate each time. When urinating, they may feel tingling and burning, and in severe cases, hematuria. Moreover, slight pain can also be felt near the pubic bone and bladder.

After suffering from urethritis, women do not need to be too nervous and irritable. It is not difficult to cure urethritis, and the main thing is to find the cause. General urethritis is mainly caused by bacterial infection, and doctors will recommend the use of appropriate antibiotics for treatment. Generally, it can be cured within two weeks, while patients with severe urethritis may require one or two months of actual treatment. The specific treatment needs to be determined based on the patient's own resistance and the degree of bacterial infection. When treating urethritis, patients need a light diet and avoid sexual activity.
If a woman suffers from urethritis due to other reasons, it is necessary to cure the root cause. Once the root cause is cured, urethritis will gradually improve.
