Urethritis + 5 Natural Ways to Relieve Urethritis Symptoms

Signs and symptoms of urethritis are different for men and women. The most common symptom for both is pain while peeing and feeling an increased urge to pee. However, some people have no symptoms at all. It is most common in women. This is called asymptomatic urethritis. Still others have symptoms that are actually caused by a different condition, such as a urinary tract infection, urethral diverticulum, urethral prolapse or urethral caruncle.

Sexual activity that puts you at increased risk of a sexually transmitted infection. These include:
Having numerous sexual partners
Having sex without a condom
A history of sexually transmitted disease

Diagnosis of urethritis involves a physical exam to check for pain, swelling, discharge or tenderness. The health care provider may also order blood or urine tests to check for bacteria, viruses and other problems. You may be tested for HIV and syphilis. In women, a pregnancy test or pelvic ultrasound may also be done. Once the cause of inflammation is known, conventional treatment will be determined. Treatment varies by the cause of the condition and typically includes the following: (2, 4, 5, 6)

For bacterial urethritis: You can expect a prescription for antibiotics and possibly a pain reliever. This helps ease pain, fight the infection and reduce your risk of passing the infection along to others.
These antibiotics include azithromycin, doxycycline, levofloxacin, ofloxacin and erythromycin. Most of these are seven-day courses of treatment, but azithromycin is a single dose.
If you have infectious urethritis, your partner should go in for testing and treatment as well.
While you are being treated, and for at least one week after, you should avoid sex or use condoms to avoid passing the infection to others.
Always take the full course of antibiotics, even if you start to feel better after a few days.
If your infection doesn’t clear up after taking antibiotics, you may be prescribed different antibiotics. Alternatively, the health care provider may search for other causes, such as a virus, trauma or topical problem.
For temporary or mild urethritis caused by spermicide, soap, etc.: No treatment may be needed as symptoms may go away on their own, particularly once you stop using the product. However, if the pain or symptoms continue more than a day or two, or if they are joined by symptoms such as a fever or pain in the belly or back, nausea, or vomiting, seek care immediately.
You may be advised to stop using spermicides or other topical contraceptives.
It may be suggested that you avoid or limit vigorous sexual activity.
You may be told to increase the amount of water you drink.
If you use scented body products or soaps, you may be advised to switch to gentle, unscented products.
For urethritis caused by injury or trauma: Depending on the cause of injury, you may require antibiotics to prevent or treat infection. If you have an item lodged in your penis, you may need both medication and professional medical assistance in removing it. In some cases, a health care professional may decide you do not need treatment for infection and may be able to wait for the inflammation to go away on its own.

Untreated urethritis can lead to infections in other organs, with serious complications. Once it spreads, infection can be much harder to treat and symptoms may be much more painful or severe. Urethritis can also cause scarring in the urethra (called urethral stricture) or pelvis (causing pelvic inflammatory disease), which can lead to fertility problems. If the infection spreads to the blood and causes sepsis, it can be deadly. If your case is caused by a sexually transmitted infection, you are also at greater risk for urethral cancer.

A publication by American Family Physician recommends that people with urethritis should drink plenty of water during and after treatment. (8) Drinking a generous amount of water each day helps flush bacteria out of the urethra, reduces the concentration of bacteria in the bladder and urine, and can reduce your chances of future infections. This is particularly important for women, who have a shorter urethra than men. (9)

The standard recommendation of about eight glasses of water per day is usually enough. Another option for calculating your minimum need is drinking a quart for every 50 pounds of body weight. You may need to drink more in hot weather or if you exercise. Spread your drinking out during the day, with the goal of urinating about once every 90 minutes. This means you’re regularly emptying your bladder and flushing out the urethra. (10)

The American Academy of Family Physicians suggests that even though dietary changes aren’t confirmed as impacting urethritis, they may help some people. There is also evidence that diet impacts people with similar conditions affecting the urinary tract, such as interstitial cystitis. You can try adjusting what you eat and drink to see if it eases the pain in your urethra. Options include: (7, 12)

Natural remedies have long been used to treat irritation and infection in the urinary tract. Since most cases of urethritis are caused by sexually transmitted infections, you should see a health care provider for evaluation and medication if needed. If you are interested in trying herbal remedies or supplements to see if they help your symptoms, discuss them with your health care provider first. Some herbs and supplements can interact with medications or cause health problems in some people.

Agathosma betulina leaves (Buchu) or Arctostaphylos uva-ursi leaves (Bearberry). Both of these are reportedly effective for fighting infection in the urinary system. “The Complete Medicinal Herbal: A Practical Guide to the Healing Properties of Herbs” recommends combining Buchu with couchgrass and yarrow for infusions or capsules. It also recommends adding corn silk to the concoction to ease burning. (13)
Hydrastis canadensis (goldenseal), Echineceae purpura (echinacea) and Equisetum arvense (horsetail) may also be useful. Some natural medicine research and traditional medical practice has found these and most of the herbs listed above to be at least somewhat effective at reducing inflammation, fighting infection, boosting the immune system or helping the body flush bacteria from the urinary system. (15)

If your case of urethritis is caused by a sexually transmitted infection, such as gonorrhea or chlamydia, the diagnosis will be tracked by public health departments and you will be asked to provide the names or contact information for all of your recent sexual partners. Providing this information honestly and accurately is critical to protecting the health of these people.

Urethritis or inflammation of the urethra (the tube leading from the bladder to the outside of the body) is a very common condition. Physicians treat more than three million cases each year, typically with antibiotics. While antibiotics are often successful in eliminating symptoms, the patient is frequently left with a disruption of the intestinal flora leading to digestive disturbances, a susceptibility to repeated infections, or an infection that is driven into deeper organs of the body such as prostate and kidneys.

The male urethra is approximately 15 to 20 centimeters long, originating in the urinary bladder and ending at the meatal opening of the penis. It can be broken down into 3 distinct parts, the prostatic urethra, membranous urethra and spongy urethra. Each has its own characteristics, and from a symptom standpoint, knowledge of each region’s function can help lead the physician to the source of the problem. These areas are also noted in the homeopathic repertory as bladder neck, fossa navicularis, and urethral meatus respectively. In addition, the types of pain and discharge experienced can often help the clinician pinpoint the site and degree of inflammation. While in conventional medicine this isn’t as important, to the homeopathic clinician, their notation can often help with remedy selection.

In men, part of the urethra runs through the prostate gland and with inflammation, it may be difficult to distinguish between urethritis and prostatitis. Therefore, many physicians will perform a 3-glass urinalysis to determine the location of the infection. This type of procedure requires that the patient collect 3 different urine samples before and after prostatic massage that are analyzed for mucus, RBC’s and WBC’S.

The female urethra is a shorter muscular tube 2 to 6 centimeters in length and lined by a mucus membrane. The mucus membranes size changes during a woman’s monthly cycle as it is affected by estrogen-progesterone fluctuations. Men do not experience this and thus their urethral mucosa is much thinner. Consequently, men are more susceptible to infections and know much sooner when they have an inflammation of the urethra than women do. Women may have a low-level urethritis and not be fully aware of it or think that they have a bladder infection or are just suffering from urge incontinence. Women present more often with chronic urethritis while in men chronic prostatitis is commonly seen. The shorter urethra in women also makes them much more susceptible to bladder infections.

Individual susceptibility and causative agents
While urethritis is almost always acquired from intercourse, not every person exposed to organisms such as Neisseria gonorrhea or Chlamydia trachomatis will contact the disease. It depends upon the individual’s susceptibility. Both the male and female genital-urinary system possesses defense mechanisms designed to fend off infection. In women it is the secretion of the periurethral glands of Skene and monthly menstrual cycles that allow for a cleaning and protecting of the urethra and bladder. In men it is the prostate gland which acts as the first line of defense against genital-urinary tract infection. In conjunction with the bulbourethral glands, the prostate secretes a thin milky substance, high in Vitamin C and zinc, prior to and following ejaculation to clean the male urethra.

There are about 1 million new cases of gonococcal urethritis (GU) (i.e. caused by gonorrhea) and 2 million cases of non-gonococcal urethritis (NGU) every year. The discharges of each type are fairly characteristic of the respective infections. Careful observation of the discharge coupled with subjective symptoms can lead the clinician to the correct homeopathic medicine. Because of the considerable variation in the type of discharge seen with NGU or non-specific urethritis, the clinician or patient can often miss them. They are usually of a clear to whitish mucus discharge and will be present in varying amounts depending upon the time of day and severity of the infection. Symptoms of gonococcal urethritis in men are usually much more noticeable and present as a purulent yellow to greenish discharge and can be very painful. The severity of symptoms may range from severe to mild to totally asymptomatic. Here, too, the severity of the symptoms are more a function of the individual’s susceptibility, constitutional and miasmic make ups that predispose them to developing the disease. Symptom severity, past medical history and concomitant mental-emotional symptoms can help the clinician determine the probable miasm which helps with remedy selection.

Complications from untreated infections can range from very few to further infection of the genito-urinary tract such as epididymitis, orchitis (inflammation of the testis), disseminated gonococcal infection, periuretheral abscess, prostatitis, stricture (narrowing of the urethra), and lymphangitis (inflammation of the lymph glands) in men. Salpingitis (inflammation of the fallopian tubes), cervicitis (inflammation of the cervix), vaginitis or ovaritis is seen in women. Both sexes can become permanently sterile from chronic or repeated infections.

Conventional treatment
Most patients receive one or several courses of antibiotics. Even if the correct antibiotic is prescribed, and the “organism” is eradicated, however, the body’s healing process is often disrupted so that the infection either reoccurs, or goes deeper into the body, with patients developing chronic urethritis, cervicitis or prostatitis. Homeopaths view this driving of the illness into deeper areas of the body as “suppression” of an illness.

Homeopathic treatment
Homeopaths often see these patients many years after the initial infection, when they come in for treatment of chronic disease. Patients frequently report that they have never been well since the original urethritis and antibiotic treatment. In my experience, careful homeopathic treatment is very effective in treating these patients and can fully eradicate the disease. As homeopathic treatment progresses, the patients will typically re-experience some of their disease symptoms, according to Herring’s Law of Cure. As every disease has a beginning, middle, end and recovery period, so healing will occur in a reverse process, according to the Law of Cure. Homeopathic medicine allows for this process to complete itself and is the reason why it is so effective in treating chronic disease.

Case I. 10/15/98
A 24-year-old male presents complaining of a persistent urethral discharge which is < in the morning. The opening to the urethra is stuck shut and is dislodged with urination. He awakes with some of the discharge on his shorts. He experiences a spasmodic feeling in the urethra with first urinating in the AM but not at other times (2). The discharge is white, thick and there is no burning or discomfort. Occasionally the discharge is more fluid. There is no perineal, hip or inguinal pain. His sexual function is fine except that he is abstaining until this clears. Three regimens of antibiotics have not cleared the condition. He denies any history of venereal disease except that he has herpes. There is no eruption at this time. Social history and mental-emotional symptoms are unremarkable except that he has a very high libido, frequent erections, and uses marijuana daily.

Follow up 10 days later
The patient reported that his symptoms cleared quickly within 24 hours. There had been no spasm with urinating in the morning and he has had no discharge for the past 8 days. He feels better mentally-emotionally as well but doesn’t know why. He wanted to know why I needed to see him back so soon as his other doctors didn’t want to see him at all. A repeat urinalysis following prostate massage showed 0-8 WBC’s/hpf, 1+ mucus, and no bacteria.

He was clearly responding to the treatment plan and that remedy 30c was acting. The few WBC’s present is a normal finding at this stage of the healing process. It is easy to tell when the remedy is working if you are also using a botanical medicine, as the symptom pattern will clear much quicker from the remedy than from the botanical medicine. The patient was advised to continue the treatment plan for the next 2 weeks in order to allow the body to complete its healing process.

Acute urethritis is a condition very amenable to homeopathic treatment, and in my experience, works faster and more completely than antibiotics. This includes gonococcal urethritis as well. As homeopathic practitioners we tend to see more chronic cases however, and often the initial prescription will require a follow up remedy once the initial layer has been removed. This helps to decrease the patient’s susceptibility to reinfection.

You should be drinking plenty of water anyway, but if you aren’t always great about remembering to fill up your water bottle in the middle of the day, it’s important to make an effort to increase your water intake if you’ve been diagnosed with (or suspect you have) a urinary tract infection. The more water you drink, the more you’ll have to pee; the more you pee, the more bacteria will be flushed out of your urethra every time you use the bathroom.

Upping your h30 consumption may also help prevent UTIs in the future, according to a 2017 study of 140 premenopausal women dealing with recurring infections. Study participants were divided into two groups; one group stuck to their usual water-drinking habits over the course of a year, while the other group drank an additional 1.5 liters of water a day (on top of their usual fluid intake). By the end of the study, the group drinking extra water saw a “significant” decrease in the mean number of infections compared to the control.

However, it should be noted that research is mixed on the subject—most recently, a 2017 review found that “limited evidence exists for cranberries in reducing the risk of [recurrent UTIs],” and that “evidence for cranberry juice in preventing UTIs was less than previously thought,” although it noted that there aren’t any known downsides to drinking the stuff, either. (And some experts still recommend drinking cranberry juice as a preventative measure.)

In addition to its overall immunity-boosting properties, vitamin C may help reduce the risk of urinary tract infections by making urine more acidic, thereby limiting bacteria growth. The authors of the metastudy mentioned above also say that vitamin C plays quite nicely with methenamine hippurate (MH), an antibiotic commonly used to treat urinary tract infections. MH reacts with acid in the urine to create formaldehyde, which is deadly to E. coli and other bacteria. So basically vitamin C could help your antibiotics work even better.

You may pride yourself on your ability to sit through marathon meetings without taking a bathroom break, but don’t sacrifice your bladder just because you don’t want to miss a minute of your boss’s riveting quarterly sales projections. If you habitually hold in your pee, research suggests you could be putting yourself at risk for a UTI. The longer urine sits in your bladder, the more time bacteria that has entered your urethra has to settle in and multiply.

A 2009 study of male rats showed a “statistically significant” drop in bacterial growth and inflammation when the rats were given garlic, while the author of a 2010 study found that garlic extract had an antimicrobial effect even on some antibiotic-resistant strains of S. aureus and E. coli. And in a small study of 57 women suffering from recurring UTIs, the group who supplemented with bearberry leaf (a.k.a. uva-ursi) saw a significant decrease in the number of recurring infections compared to the control group over the course of the year-long study.

See your doctor if you have an infection so he can prescribe antibiotics. Although untreated urethritis may eventually go away on its own, it can leave you with a worse problem — a urethral stricture or blockage. An injury or untreated infection can cause scar tissue to build up in the urethra. A urethral stricture occurs when this scar tissue shrinks, causing the urethra to narrow and sometimes even become shorter. This makes it difficult and painful to urinate or ejaculate. There is no natural remedy for a urethral stricture.

How to Treat a UTI at Home With 4 Natural Remedies
To treat a UTI at home, it’s important to drink lots of water, and consume cranberries and Vitamin C.
Often, you will need antibiotics to effectively treat a UTI, and you should check in with your doctor first to determine if you’re able to treat one at home.
Antibiotics will likely be more effective at treating a UTI after it’s occurred, but with these natural remedies, you can help reduce your risk and prevent future UTIs.
This article was medically reviewed by S. Adam Ramin, MD, urologic surgeon and medical director of Urology Cancer Specialists in Los Angeles.
Visit Insider’s Health Reference library for more advice.
One of the most common bacterial infections is a urinary tract infection, or UTI. If left untreated, a UTI can develop into serious health problems, such as a kidney infection.
To treat the UTI, your doctor may prescribe an antibiotic, including:
Bactrim (trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole)
Keflex (cephalexin)
Monurol (fosfomycin)
However, antibiotics can also increase bacterial resistance, and in some cases, your doctor may recommend that you can safely and effectively treat a UTI at home, without antibiotics.
Here’s how to tell if you have a UTI and when it’s OK to treat one at home.
UTI symptoms
This painful infection occurs when bacteria, usually Escherichia coli (E. coli), enter the urinary tract through the urethra, the tube that carries urine out of your body.
These are some of the common symptoms of a UTI:
A constant urge to urinate
Pain or a burning sensation while urinating
Only being able to urinate small amounts
Cloudy or strong-smelling urine
Pressure in your pelvic area
It’s important to see a doctor if your symptoms persist for more than 48 hours, or if you have a fever, back pain, or blood in your urine.
Both men and women can get a UTI. However, it’s more common in women because they have shorter urethras, making it easier for bacteria to reach their bladders. In fact, almost half of all women will have at least one UTI in their lifetime.
Can you treat a UTI without antibiotics?
If you’re experiencing the symptoms of a UTI, you should always check in with your doctor first.
Because they’re at higher risk for complications, men and pregnant women should never try to treat a UTI at home, according to Rena Malik, M. D., a urologist and director of female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery at the University of Maryland School of Medicine.
But for some women with no other serious health problems, it can be possible to treat a UTI at home, without antibiotics. For instance, mild or uncomplicated UTIs may clear out of the bladder naturally, as a strong immune system can help resolve these infections.
To boost your immune system and help reduce your risk of severe UTIs, it’s important to stay well-hydrated and incorporate essential vitamins and nutrients into your diet. And while these methods won’t treat your UTI as effectively as antibiotics after it’s occured, they can help prevent future ones from occurring.
Drink lots of water
Drinking water and staying hydrated can help prevent and treat a UTI. This dilutes your urine so you’ll pee more frequently, helping to flush out the bacteria that’s causing your infection.
“We recommend that all our patients who have recurrent UTIs drink about 2 to 3 liters of fluid per day,” Malik says. “This can include water, flavored water, and non-caffeinated beverages.”
For example, a study of 141 girls from three to 18 years old showed that inadequate fluid intake and infrequent urination were linked to recurrent UTIs.
You should also avoid drinking fluids that could irritate your bladder and worsen symptoms, such as alcohol and caffeinated beverages.
Consume cranberries
There is some evidence that cranberries may help prevent UTIs. That’s because they contain proanthocyanidins (PACs), which may stop bacteria from sticking to your urinary tract lining.
One study found that it’s most effective to consume 36mg of cranberry PAC daily to help prevent a UTI.
“You can drink a very concentrated juice that’s 100% cranberry with no sugar added, or you can take a capsule or tablet that has that dosing in it,” Malik says.
However, she warns that many cranberry juices contain a lot of sugar but not enough PAC, and many cranberry supplements don’t contain enough PAC to be effective — so make sure you know what kind of cranberry products you’re consuming.
For reference, an 8-ounce (240-milliliter) serving of an Ocean Spray cranberry juice drink has about 33 to 36mg of PACs, according to a 2017 article in the EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) Journal.
Get vitamin C
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) may increase the acidity of your urine, which can help kill the bacteria causing your UTI. There have been few studies, with mixed results, on whether vitamin C is effective for preventing UTIs.
In one study, pregnant women who took 100mg of vitamin C daily for three months had significantly fewer UTIs than pregnant women who didn’t take vitamin C. However, in another study, participants with spinal cord injuries who took 2,000mg of vitamin C daily did not have fewer UTIs than participants who didn’t increase their vitamin C intake.
“[Vitamin C] certainly won’t hurt you in a short period of time, but if you’re taking it over a long period of time, you should discuss that with your doctor,” Malik says.
Fruits and vegetables especially high in vitamin C include oranges, grapefruit, and red bell peppers. You can also take a vitamin C supplement.
Try probiotics
Probiotics are microorganisms that help balance the “bad” bacteria that can cause infections in your body, such as E. coli, with the “good” bacteria that assist in digesting food properly.
In addition, the probiotic strain lactobacillus may help prevent UTIs by stopping the bad bacteria from adhering to your urinary tract. That’s because lactobacillus produces antibacterial hydrogen peroxide, which makes it difficult for certain bacteria to survive.
Lactobacillus is available in supplements. It’s also found in yogurt and fermented foods such as kimchi, miso, and sauerkraut.
In one small study, lactobacillus was found to be effective in preventing UTIs in premenopausal women. But another review didn’t find enough evidence to recommend its use.
Malik says “the jury is still out” on how effective probiotics are for preventing UTIs, and you should talk with your doctor to see if using them could be right for you.
The bottom line
These at-home remedies may help prevent or treat a UTI, as long as your doctor deems them safe for you.
Additionally, there are a few general lifestyle behaviors you can practice to help prevent UTIs before they occur, including:
When you feel like you have to urinate, go — don’t hold it.
After urinating and especially after a bowel movement, wipe from front to back to prevent bacteria from entering your urethra.
Urinate before and after having sex.
Avoid using scented soaps, bubble baths, or douches.
Don’t wear tight pants.
If you do experience the symptoms of a UTI, it’s important to check in with your doctor before attempting to treat it yourself. Together, you can determine whether you’ll need antibiotics, or if you can treat your UTI at home.

Urology | Urethritis Causes & Symptoms
Urethritis is swelling and irritation or inflammation of the urethra. Urethritis is most commonly caused by bacteria or a virus, but can also result from physical injury or sensitivity to some chemicals in spermicides and contraceptive foams and jellies.
The bacteria responsible for urethritis include:
E. coli: Present in stool, it’s the same bacteria that causes urinary tract infections (UTIs)
Gonococcus: Sexually transmitted and causes gonorrhea
Chlamydia trachomatis: Sexually transmitted and causes chlamydia
Virues that are commonly responsible for urethritis include:
Herpes simplex (HSV-1 and HSV-2)
Trichomonas: A single-celled sexually-transmitted organism
Who’s At Risk?

The primary causes of urethritis are linked to behaviors, like inadequate hygiene or risky sexual behaviors. Behaviors that put people at the most risk for developing urethritis include:
multiple sexual partners
high-risk sexual behavior, such as anal sex without a condom
a history of sexually transmitted diseases
Symptoms of Urethritis

The primary symptoms of urethritis are urethral inflammation and painful urination. In addition, urethritis symptoms include:
frequent or urgent need to urinate
difficulty starting urination
itching, pain or discomfort when not urinating
pain during sex
vaginal or urethral discharge
abdominal and pelvic pain
fever and chills
Diagnosing Urethritis

If you are experiencing painful urination or vaginal or urethral discharge, your doctor may assume an infection is present and may prescribe antibiotics immediately while awaiting test results. Tests can help confirm the diagnosis of urethritis and its cause and can include:
physical examination of the genitals, abdomen and rectum to check for discharge and tenderness
urine tests for gonorrhea, chlamydia or other bacteria
examination of any discharge under a microscope
Blood tests are sometimes performed, but are not often necessary for an accurate diagnosis.
Treating Urethritis

The goal of any treatment for urethritis is to eliminate the cause of infection, prevent the spread of infection and improve your symptoms. There are different treatment options depending on the cause and severity of infection. Pain relievers may also be used in conjunction with other medications to lessen painful symptoms of urethritis .
People with urethritis who are being treated should avoid sex or use condoms during intercourse. If an infection is the cause of the inflammation, your sexual partner must also be treated.
Treating urethritis caused by bacteria

Antibiotics can successfully cure urethritis caused by bacteria. Many different antibiotics can treat urethritis, but some of the most commonly prescribed include:
Doxycycline (Adoxa, Monodox, Oracea, Vibramycin)
Ceftriaxone (Rocephin)
Azithromycin (Zithromax, Zmax)
Urethritis due to trichomonas infection (called trichomoniasis) is usually treated with an antibiotic called Flagyl (metronidazole). Tindamax (tinidazole) is another antibiotic that can treat trichomoniasis. Urethritis that does not clear up after antibiotic treatment and lasts for at least six weeks is called chronic urethritis. Different antibiotics may be used to treat this problem.
Treating urethritis caused by a virus

Urethritis due to the herpes simplex virus can be treated with a number of medications, including:
Famciclovir (Famvir)
Valacyclovir (Valtrex)
Acyclovir (Zovirax)
Preventing Urethritis

Urethritis can be prevented with good personal hygiene and by practicing safer sexual behaviors such as monogamy (one sexual partner only) and using condoms.
Urethritis is preventable and curable, but can lead to permanent damage to the urethra as well as other organs in women. Common complications from urethritis include:

Urethritis is a disease characterized by an inflammatory process in the walls of the urethra.
Sometimes urethritis is asymptomatic, and the patient does not realize that he is sick. However, as a rule, the symptoms of the disease are as follows:
itching and burning during urination,
painful sensations during urination,
purulent discharge from the urethra,
adhesion of the external opening of the urethra,
redness of the external opening of the urethra.
The disease occurs quite often in both men and women. Distinguish between specific and nonspecific urethritis.
Specific urethritis is caused by various sexually transmitted infections:
herpes virus,
gonococcus,
chlamydia,
Trichomonas,
microplasmas and other viruses.
Nonspecific urethritis can be caused by the following factors:
narrowing of the urethra,
injury to the urethra,
allergic reaction to food and drug components,
metabolic disorders,
urolithiasis,
ingestion of too spicy food.
Should urethritis be treated at home?
Home treatment of urethritis is generally possible but not recommended. Improperly selected medications can adversely affect the course of the disease and cause complications. If you experience any symptoms of urethritis, be sure to see a qualified professional. Only an experienced doctor can quickly and accurately establish a diagnosis and choose an effective treatment, taking into account all the characteristics of your body and contraindications of pharmacological drugs.The doctor will give you the necessary recommendations on how to treat urethritis, what procedures to carry out and in what doses to take medications.
As a rule, the treatment of urethritis consists in taking broad-spectrum antibiotics, as well as immunomodulatory agents.
Of the proven folk remedies for the treatment of urethritis, one can single out:
cranberry juice,
decoction of black currant leaves (drink several times a day),
black currant fruits (it is useful to drink decoctions, make infusions and eat fresh berries),
parsley and celery roots,
linden decoction (drink a glass before going to bed).
Comprehensive treatment of urethritis in consultation with your doctor will help you quickly and effectively cope with the disease.

Treatment of urethritis in men with folk remedies: TOP-12 recipes
Urethritis is an inflammation of the walls of the urethra. The disease is characterized by a complex course, severe discomfort and extremely painful sensations. In the absence of adequate therapy, an unpleasant disease will inevitably turn into a chronic form, therefore, it is necessary to start treatment of urethritis in men with folk remedies in a timely manner, but always in combination with the methods of official medicine. This approach is a guarantee of successful disposal of urethritis. However, the use of any folk recipes is impossible without the approval of the attending physician.
Features of home treatment of urethritis
Non-drug alternative treatment should complement, not replace, conventional therapy.For it to be successful, the patient needs to undergo an examination and identify the cause of urethritis. Taking antibacterial drugs is the most important part of treatment, and folk remedies are only auxiliary.
In order for the plants to bring relief, but not to become provocateurs of an allergic reaction, it is necessary to adhere to dosages and strict adherence to recipes.
In addition to the internal intake of additional folk compositions, local treatment is also indicated for urethritis – the use of decoctions, infusions.
The most effective methods of treatment

90,000 symptoms and home treatment
One of the most unpleasant diseases for men is urethritis. This ailment is associated with inflammation of the urethra, which connects the bladder and urinary opening on the head of the penis. Symptoms of the disease in men are pronounced, since pathological microorganisms make it impossible for normal urination.
Types of urethritis
There are several classifications for urethritis. One of them is based on the origin of the disease – according to this classification, urethritis is infectious and non-infectious.
Also, the disease is considered from the position of the order of occurrence. Distinguish between primary urethritis, which occurs as an independent disease, and secondary urethritis, the symptoms of which appear against the background of the patient’s pathological process. Primary urethritis is most often the result of unprotected intercourse with an infected partner. Secondary disease occurs as a complication of prostatitis, cystitis and other suppurative processes in the pelvic zone.
In addition, urethritis is distinguished depending on the type of causative agent of the disease:
gonorrheal urethritis – usually sexually transmitted, the causative agent of the disease is gonococcus.In some cases, you can get infected through the use of common personal hygiene items;
bacterial urethritis is a consequence of the penetration of pathological microorganisms into the urethra. Bacterial urethritis occurs during medical procedures, during endoscopy, etc.;
chlamydial urethritis occurs due to the ingestion of chlamydia. Usually, the infection does not rise higher, affecting only the urethra;
Trichomonas urethritis – a disease in which the pathological process is triggered by the penetration of Trichomonas into the body;
candidal urethritis – the pathogen is introduced into the body when the mucous membrane of the urethra is damaged.Quite often, candidal urethritis can be a consequence of the use of antibiotics.

infectious process in response to irritation of the urethra with chemicals – intimate hygiene gels, lotions. Also, irritation can occur when using condoms, to which the patient is allergic to spermicide;
careless medical manipulations that entail mechanical damage to the mucous membrane of the urethra can also cause urethritis in the patient;
wearing tight synthetic underwear;
narrowing of the urethra;
hypothermia;
congestion in the small pelvis;
decreased immunity (this is how candidal urethritis most often occurs).

increased urge to urinate;
inability to urinate to the end;

Miramistin solution, potassium permanganate, protargol are locally prescribed – they treat candidal urethritis and its other types well.
The patient undergoes a course of therapy at home, hospitalization is practically not used. Parallel treatment with folk remedies has a good effect.

[stextbox id = “alert”] In some cases, the disease manifests itself due to defloration, radiation therapy. Such factors are also desirable to take into account when contacting a doctor. [/ Stextbox]
Infectious agents often negatively affect the condition of the urethra. The pathogenic flora is specific and often the bacteria are sexually transmitted.The following pathogenic microorganisms lead to the development of urethritis:
gonococci;
Trichomonas;
chlamydia;
mycoplasma;
herpes viruses;
genital warts.
The above pathogenic microorganisms negatively affect the state of the urethra in women.

In any case, you will initially need to conduct an examination and pass all tests to determine the nature of urethritis, therefore it is recommended to initially contact a therapist and listen to his recommendations.
[stextbox id = “warning”] Doctors note that staphylococci, streptococci, Escherichia coli, Candida fungi are conditionally pathogenic microorganisms, since they are constantly present in the body.However, additional unfavorable factors activate the flora, as a result of which the urethra becomes inflamed and a mandatory visit to a doctor is required. [/ Stextbox]
The following factors can also lead to the development of urethritis in women:
hypothermia of the female body;
potential female genital trauma;
significant weakening of the immune system after stress or severe illness;
severe dietary restrictions and lack of nutrients, vitamins;
craving for alcohol;
chronic inflammatory processes;
diseases of the urinary system;
pregnancy and menopause;
violation of the rules of intimate hygiene.
As you can imagine, urethritis is often preventable. However, when the first symptoms appear, you still need to see a doctor and try to determine the cause of the problems.
Symptoms of urethritis
Women are often faced with a blurred manifestation of urethritis. Men are forced to face pronounced signs. This is due to the different structure of the genitourinary system. The fact is that men have long and narrow urethra, as a result of which some inflammations develop more actively and sharply.
The main symptoms of urethritis in women:
discomfort when urinating;
visual redness of the intimate organs;
discharge with pus;
itching during menstruation in the genital area.
These symptoms are most severe. In this case, chronic urethritis in women may even bother at a time when the disease does not manifest itself in an acute form. The main symptom is mild pain in the lower abdomen, which manifests itself during intimacy and menstruation.
Severe pain with urethritis
Often, female urethritis is characterized by the absence of external manifestations. For this reason, the diagnosis becomes more difficult.
The chronic form of the disease is usually caused by untimely and incorrect treatment or lack of a treatment course. 20 days after the onset of the inflammatory process, urethritis, which could not be treated, becomes chronic. The main symptoms of the disease completely disappear, but with intimate contacts, strong emotional arousal, hypothermia or alcohol abuse they reappear.

general examination of urine and blood;
extended urine test according to the Nichiporenko method;
urine test for the presence or absence of potentially dangerous bacteria to determine the pathogen;
test for the sensitivity of bacteria to antibiotics;
PCR for the study of biological material;
urine analysis for mycobacterium tuberculosis, but in this case the result can be obtained only after 10-12 weeks.
The above survey methods are the most important.
Examination by a gynecologist
In some cases, ureteroscopy is performed, which is an effective instrumental method. The main task is an endoscopic examination of the urethral mucosa. During the examination, you can take a biopsy, eliminate scars and strictures. As a result, it is possible to obtain accurate information about a woman’s health status.
