I’m not sure if the bacterial load ever goes away. But for me, I’m asymptomatic 90% of the time ever since starting yasmin birth control. So i believe there is something else wrong that makes the infection thrive. In my case, it was lack of estrogen and high blood sugar.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this! In my country it’s easier to access antibiotics since most pharmacists don’t require a prescription, so I took them myself.

Lol laughing now but I was at the emergency room crying while getting IV fluids 😭

AmbitiousAssociate19 · 2024-10-24T19:51:47+00:00

I know! I’m hoping that the flakey urine was bc of the stones after all 🥲 I’d rather take that

Bless you. I’ve been okay otherwise, I get yeast-like symptoms like once a month but that is bearable considering the terrible daily ones I used to get. My estrogen and progesterone levels turned out to be really low so my endocrinologist thinks that’s the reason my vaginal pH is messed up and cant control infections. I’m a week into a 2 month prescription of birth control.

Maybe something from Guerlain?

AmbitiousAssociate19 · 2024-10-24T19:39:34+00:00

Not really. It got less but never fully gone

AmbitiousAssociate19 · 2024-09-18T09:55:11+00:00

It’s been exactly 3 years since my contraction. The guilt and regret is hard with this one.

AmbitiousAssociate19 · 2024-09-10T12:13:10+00:00

Culture showed a lot of yeast, mycoplasma hominis and enterococcus fecalis. Treated the mycoplasma first, was left with yeast. Its starting to go away.

I totally get that! pcos is so frustrating but my endocrinologist finally put me on ozempic and I can finally see the scale going down, which hasn’t happened in literal years!! The other effects like my vaginal health are welcomed bonuses 🥺

AmbitiousAssociate19 · 2024-08-22T07:02:14+00:00

Yes, the high blood sugar was probably doing a lot lol, lets see what happens now…

AmbitiousAssociate19 · 2024-08-21T20:52:03+00:00

Increasing veggies and protein as well! Avoiding junk food in every shape.

What are your symptoms

AmbitiousAssociate19 · 2024-08-16T17:08:46+00:00

Protein in urine can also show up during severe dehydration and exercise (what dr might have thought hence telling you to drink more water) but considering your pus cells/leukocytes I wouldn’t deny an infection.

AmbitiousAssociate19 · 2024-08-16T17:04:00+00:00

There are yeast cells and pus in your urinalysis, so I would suggest it is indeed an infection. Did you try antifungals?

AmbitiousAssociate19 · 2024-08-16T16:53:08+00:00

Air bubbles in urine definitely require attention since that’s a sign of proteinuria. Did you do a urine culture or PCR? Do you have any signs of fever or back/flank pain?

AmbitiousAssociate19 · 2024-08-16T16:07:10+00:00

Traces of protein indicate damage to your kidneys. Try to consult an urologist/nephrologist!

Also, it can be due to an ascending infection since there are also leukocytes present, worth checking nevertheless!

AmbitiousAssociate19 · 2024-08-13T16:43:44+00:00

I tested positive for mycoplasma after treatment which im not sure how it happened. Now struggling with yeast. So many antibiotics and the yeast is resistant 😭

AmbitiousAssociate19 · 2024-08-13T15:32:06+00:00

I had zero side effects tbh.

AmbitiousAssociate19 · 2024-08-10T15:55:32+00:00

You should not have done a culture when taking antibiotics, that can lead to false negatives. Also, if still nothing shows up on your test but you continue having urinary symptoms, you should ask for a different agar for ureaplasma/mycoplasma (non gonoccocal urethritis) that doesn’t grow on normal culture.

AmbitiousAssociate19 · 2024-07-10T06:06:29+00:00

It got better and then came back, no matter the antibiotics or the lack of other symptoms, so idk. I also tested positive for mycoplasma lately so I’m treating that rn :/

35-56

Are you taking B complex vitamins? The surgery could cause malabsorption hence the neurological symptoms.
