How often do you get UTI's from sex?

Never, occasionally, always? What's your deal with urinary tract infections? Some women get them from sex by itself. Others get them from not bathing/urinating after sex, or using lubricant. I'm just curious to know.

I have never hard one in my life. Never any issues down there.

I've never had one..I heard tho if you don't urinate after sex you get them but I'm a clean freak and shower shortly after sex anyways so maybe thats why I don't get them.

I've only ever had two UTI's in my whole life. One of them was before I was having sex, and the other one was after I became sexually active, but I don't know if they were connected.

I did have a friend who would get them constantly though. I felt so bad for her, they aren't any fun, and having them all the time can't be fun either.

The wife had one about 20 years ago. She learned that going pee after sex helps to prevent them. She hasn't had one since, I have never had one.

If I don't pee after sex I'm sure to get one in a few days. If my husband cums a lot I also rinse off just to be extra sure. I still manage to get them every four months or so usually following sex.

In the last 22 years I'd say that I've gotten 2-3, mostly from having sex after a very exhausting cycling or hiking endeavor - which suppressed my immune system. Cipro works great!

I did pretty frequently when I was a teenager and in my early twenties... maybe one every other month? So about one out of 100 sex sessions?

Until I got an IUD and was able to have sex without condoms. That helped a lot, and I went from a ~5/6 a year to one or two a year. I also made the correlation, and when I had sex with non-fluid bonded partners, I started paying attention and only getting non-lubricated condoms. That helped a lot too.

Also, learning to squirt has completely cleared it up altogether.

I've only had one. It was after having sex with a friend (that I only slept with once). I've never gotten one with my long-term partner, and I'm not sure what my friend and I did differently that might have caused it, or if there's even a correlation.
