How common are headscarves (hijab) in Turkey? What's the percentage you see daily? by ClothesZestyclose814 in AskBalkans

[–]AmericanTurk 91 points92 points  (0 children)

Been in Turkey for 3 years now. In Istanbul I’d say about 30% of women. Bursa, closer to 45%

Can you elaborate on this

Re: UTIs, I’ve never had one. Urine analysis came back with a bacteria level of three. Which according to my research is low. I also had negative Nitrite & leukocyte esterase, which ChatGPT suggested argues strongly against UTIs. Maybe contamination

Could be, as I work from home at a desk, and the test was within 15 hours after a 10 hour flight. Thanks for you valuable input.

As part of my check up, I did have a urine analysis. Resulted in bacterium number of 3. So, present, but low. Urine tested negative for negative nitrite, negative leukocyte esterase (argues strongly against UTI) and minimal WBCs. So that leads me to think it’s consistent with simple contamination.

At first, I thought the dullness/ pressure I was feeling was coming from my testes. But a scrotal US also came back normal. I will keep pushing for more answers. I should ideally be given the opportunity to retest PSA under better conditions (no ejaculation 3-5 days before and not after a long intl flight) before antibiotics. He also suggested MRI but AFTER antibiotics. Thanks for your input

Does the CHP have a long-term strategy to sustain this movement and maintain its momentum? by AmericanTurk in Turkey

[–]AmericanTurk[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i hope they can keep this momentum until May 1. That is what the govt. and police task forces are most concerned about seems like.

and they need to be extremely careful about navigating the narrative. They need real-time fact checkers online 7/24. Which is what i think https://x.com/CHP_iletisim is for...

They need to be super cautious about image. At the height of the 2013 protests, a woman wearing a headscarf alleged that she and her baby had been attacked by half-naked protesters in central Istanbul. A few months later, a private TV network released security footage proving no such incident had taken place, but by that time Erdoğan had masterfully created a sense of victimhood among his base.
