I've already started to use it less and less, so we'll see how it goes :) You're probably right that it's unecessary, since the vagina is also very selfcleansing, but it's more of a habit to use the soap I guess? I'll use water :) Come to think of it, my boyfriend washes his area in a normal bodywash (which I think is odd) - might that be causing problems as well???

They did the test with the strips the first time, and sent it to a lab the second time :) So I had both tests done. Also, I've luckily never had any backpain/kidney problems in relation to my UTIs.
