| Catalina, I take cranberry pills everyday and then I use the Ural sachets when I have bad symptoms. Usually clears within a day or two |

| yeah, I was like "...excuse me??? are you fr??" because. how??? I guess there's just that much open space in your body cavity, *I guess*! O_o |

| Omg Gladius that's terrible! My first one they said was golf ball size. I can't imagine any bigger! |

| Question for people who get UTIs often, what do you do to prevent? Or are you still figuring that out? |

| That’s great to hear Dimmy :) I’ve been thinking of getting one but I’ve been too scared. |

| I once had a tennis ball sized cyst, according to the doc who imaged it... woke up to go to work, staggered to the floor because it felt like I was literally being stabbed. hubby had to call the nurse line and take me to the ER |

| Mellow, yucky, kidney infections are no fun. But yeah it’s worth investigating, especially if you’re getting chronic uti symptoms. Utis are the worst tho |

| I remember when my mom took me to the ER for it ππ my ovary wasn't twisted or hurting anymore and she was all "you better not be faking this or I'm going to be pissed" lol. Nope, wasn't faking π |

| I had the IUD for 3? Years. It stopped all periods and cysts. I had another one put in after having my first baby, and had it taken out to transfer this current baby lol but yes the IUD helped a lot |
| Dimmed |
| My very first cyst I remember feeling dropped me to the floor crying because it would cause my ovary to twist a bit. It wasn't constant, but I usually knew when I had a big one because if I did anything it would hurt. During my fertility treatments it was insane seeing all the big cystic follicles in my ovaries lol |

| dimmy, no i dont have a reg OB, took over a year just to get an apt with the first and only one ive ever seen to talk about sterilization and she was awful, im on a wait list to see another but its been a while lol and no i havent heard of it red! but will look into it! they were all confirmed UTIs, other then 3 years ago i got a UTI and double kidney infection , and then my last one that i was sure was the same (something with kidneys or UTI) ended up being negative but no tests were done to see what it actually was |
| Red Hill Hollow |
| Omg dimmy I could not imagine that. I was super lucky with my periods until I got a 5cm cyst. I’ve got another one now, albeit a bit smaller. The only birth control I’ve been on other than the pills is the bar. It literally made me bald π₯² I hope you’re in a better situation now tho <3 has the IUD helped with those symptoms? |
| Dimmed |
| My meds threw me because it's not what my body needed I think. They were treating the wrong thing |

| dimmy - oh that gets me aaaaangry. those are no freakin' joke and everyone shows symptoms differently |
| Red Hill Hollow |
| Have you heard of interstitial cystitis mellow? Would it be worth to look into that. Or is it like a confirmed uti each time? |
| Dimmed |
| Do you have a regular OB? When I was 18? I told my normal doctor that I want to be checked for it and she absolutely refused. Because "if you had PCOS you would have facial hair". Meanwhile I was bleeding for 1-3 months straight with 1-2 months between each "period". I had been on BC pills starting around 11 when they found a big cyst on my ovary. Yet that wasn't good enough lol |
