  1. Tips to Avoid Urinary Tract Infection during Pregnancy wwww.kcurology.com

  2. Did you know? The incidence of urinary tract infection increases for women during pregnancy. Also, a recent research in this suggested an association between UTI’s and serious problems such as preterm birth and smaller than normal gestational age infants. wwww.kcurology.com

  3. Urinary tract infection is common during pregnancy and if left untreated, some urine infections may progress to cause serious kidney infection. Pregnant women are particularly prone to these often painful infections during weeks 6-24 of their pregnancies. wwww.kcurology.com

  4. Practice Good Hygiene Always keep your genital area clean and avoid using strong soap, cream, douches, powders and sprays. Go to bathroom as soon as you feel the urge to urinate because holding urine for a long time keeps bacteria in your bladder to stay longer. wwww.kcurology.com

  5. Stay Hydrated Drink plenty of water because it can help flush bacteria from your body and prevents the development of new infections. Try to drink about eight 8-ounce servings of water a day and consider adding lemon to your water to increase the acidity of your urine and fight bacterial growth. wwww.kcurology.com

  6. Contact Your Health Care Professional By performing various physical examination and other urinary tests, your health care professional can determine if you have a urinary tract infection. To clear up the infection, your health care professional will suggest a suitable antibiotic to protect the health of you and your child. wwww.kcurology.com
