Urethritis

Inflammation of the urethra (the tube leading from the bladder to exit from the body) is called urethritis. In women, the infection usually due to contusions (without infection) sustained during sexual intercourse. In men, urethritis is generally a result of infection caused by a disease that is transmitted by sexual contact.

Chronic urethritis

Chronic urethritis is frequent and common inflammation of the urethra. Inflammation is often a consequence of urethritis concussion during intercourse, especially if you are not relaxed. In rare cases, the cause of the infection.

The symptoms of chronic urethritis are similar to the symptoms of cystitis in women, except that only last a day or two after intercourse. Given the great similarity of symptoms of chronic cystitis and urethritis, as well as the inflammation of the urethra often occurs in women who have just started to have sexual intercourse, chronic urethritis is sometimes referred to as "honeymoon cystitis".

What to do?

Adopt the following self-help measures on each occasion of intercourse: a glass of water before intercourse, apply a lubricant for the vagina, relax, soon after intercourse completely empty the bladder.

Treatment of chronic urethritis

You'd have to go to the doctor and give a urine sample for analysis. Any infection can be treated with antibiotics. If chronic urethritis persists, your doctor may advise surgery - stretching urethra or vagina.

Non-specific urethritis

Non-specific urethritis is an infection of the urinary tube (urethra), which channels urine from the bladder out of the body. The disease is transmitted sexual intercourse, although many years the cause of the disease was not known due to technical difficulties in isolating and identifying microorganisms (hence the name of the disease). According to modern laboratory tests, about 45% of cases of nonspecific urethritis caused by bacteria called Chlamydia trachomatis, although probably there are other causes of this disease.

Symptoms of non-specific urethritis

In men, symptoms are nonspecific urethritis occur 7 to 35 days (incubation period) after infection.The first notable symptom is mild burning at the top of the limb, which sometimes feels only the first morning urine. Baking can be accompanied by a rare, clear discharge, also (sometimes) only in the morning. If the infection is left untreated, can worsen the discomfort and discharge become slightly thicker and thicker. Eventually the symptoms disappear, but the infection can lie low and, if untreated, transferred to another person sexually. In women, non-specific urethritis usually causes no symptoms.Sometimes it is possible to slightly more abundant vaginal discharge.

The incidence of nonspecific urethritis

According to statistics, medical clinics specializing in sexually transmitted diseases each year from non-specific urethritis diagnosed in 1 in 500 people and 80% were men. NSU is therefore the most common venereal disease (ie, a disease that is transmitted through sexual contact).
What to do?

If you notice the symptoms described above, go to the doctor or medical facility specializing in venereal diseases. Refrain from sexual intercourse until the disease is not diagnosed, or until the end of treatment. The doctor will examine you and take a sample of discharge from the urethra for laboratory analysis. If the results confirm that this is a non-specific urethritis, treatment is relatively simple: antibiotics cure that will solve the disease by following the instructions and abstain from sexual intercourse until recovery. Women - sexual partners of men with non-specific urethritis also had to go to the examination, so even though their symptoms may not be usually prescribed medications.
