    Preventing cystitis is one of the things you promise yourself to do immediately after coming out of an episode of sudden and painful cystitis. Or maybe you never did.
    \nPreventing cystitis should become a daily habit, especially if you suffer from it often or if, in the past, you have developed one cystitis after another.I know having to think about cystitis and its prevention when you’re feeling alright makes it even more of a nightmare!<\/strong>
    \nAnd so, perhaps out of superstition, you prefer not to think about it and use your energy for something else.<\/p>\n


    \n“As long as the boat’s going, let her go” is what the song says, does it?<\/em><\/p>\n

    But, have you ever thought about the price of having to stop suddenly when you least expect it?
    \nHave you ever thought about how many benefits you’re not considering?<\/p>\n

    Starting to prevent cystitis when you’re well can give you complete benefits.
    \nWhen I say complete, I it is not just your bladder that will thank you, but your whole body.Don’t you believe it?<\/strong>
    \nI’ll give you some pointers right now!<\/em><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    The nine crucial reasons to prevent cystitis today<\/h2>\n

    Try to think beyond the symptoms and annoyances of cystitis. The positive consequences of constant prevention embrace your all-round well-being:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Prevention means getting there early. Getting there before bacteria (or other inflammatory agents) means avoiding new rounds of antibiotics.<\/strong><\/li>\n
    2. Cystitis has a cost: with the prevention, you will save a lot <\/strong>of money (among medical visits, various examinations, medicines, and…stress).<\/li>\n
    3. No bouts of cystitis = no more endless queues in waiting rooms.<\/strong><\/li>\n
    4. Your immune system<\/strong> won’t be exposed to the risk of long-term problems such as, for example, bacterial flora imbalance.<\/li>\n
    5. The benefits of prevention go beyond just the concept of cystitis. If you prevent cystitis, you prevent Candida and other intimate problems.<\/strong><\/li>\n
    6. Sexual intercourse<\/strong> will once again become an enjoyable time.<\/li>\n
    7. You won’t have to take time off work<\/strong> for sudden bouts of cystitis.<\/li>\n
    8. You’ll be able to travel peacefully.<\/strong><\/li>\n
    9. Anxiety<\/strong> about new attacks will disappear<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Preventing cystitis is not only easier and cheaper than treating it with every attack. Preventing cystitis is a release from a condition that continually threatens your physical and mental health.<\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

      Preventing cystitis: Where to start?<\/h2>\n

      Cystitis is the most common lower urinary tract infection and a major cause of antibiotic prescription. Usually, it is generated as a result of bacterial contamination of the bladder.<\/p>\n

      The lifetime risk of developing cystitis episodes is estimated to be around 50% in women, with at least a third of episodes occurring before 24.<\/strong>
      \nApproximately 5% of women develop chronic cystitis after their first cystitis, while 25-30% of the entire female population will develop recurrences during their lifetime.<\/strong><\/p>\n

      How would this data change if you just rethink the way you deal with cystitis?<\/em><\/p>\n

      While some aspects, such as female anatomy, cannot be worked on, there are many other things you can work on.<\/p>\n

      I’m not going to give you any magic formula, but I will try to summarize some actions and habits you can put into practice to get going.<\/p>\n

      It doesn’t matter how motivated you are to prevent cystitis: it’s much more vital to get started. <\/em>
      \nMotivation will come by doing and seeing the first results.<\/em><\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

      \ud83d\udc9aPrevent every time you pee.<\/h3>\n

      Peeing doesn’t have to be a hasty action.<\/p>\n

      You need to make sure you’ve emptied your bladder properly.
      \nTake your time and contract your bladder with the help of your abdominal muscles. When you’re done, take a 10-second break before you put your clothes back on to see if you’ve really emptied your bladder<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

      \ud83d\udc9aPee more often<\/h3>\n

      There is a limit beyond which holding your pee can become detrimental to your health.
      \nDon’t hold back! When you feel the urge, look for a bathroom.<\/strong><\/p>\n

      Make sure you drink enough so that the urge to pee comes back about every three hours.
      \nObserve the color of your urine: if it is too dark, your urine is too concentrated, and you will need to drink more.<\/p>\n

      Avoid, at all costs, risking being dehydrated. Even when you’re not home, carry water with you at all times.
      \nIn short, make sure that whatever activity you do, drinking water regularly is always in your plans.<\/strong><\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

      \ud83d\udc9aUnderstand what triggers your cystitis<\/h3>\n

      The causes of cystitis<\/a> are not the same for everyone.
      \nTo understand what causes are related to your cystitis, experiment.<\/p>\n

      Try to make small, lasting changes:<\/strong><\/p>\n
