Patient's question:
After each sexual intercourse, I easily experience frequent urination and urgency. After taking some medication at the hospital, it improved, but it recurred after a while. What could be the reason? Thank you.Doctor's answer:
Hello! Experiencing frequent and urgent urination after sexual intercourse suggests a urinary tract infection with inflammation, which has led to bladder irritation. Urinary tract infections can cause inflammation. During sexual activity, the male penis can easily introduce bacteria into the female vagina, and over time, this can lead to a urinary tract infection, creating the sensation of frequent urination. Therefore, both partners should thoroughly clean their bodies before sexual activity. If the male has conditions such as balanitis (penile), it is best to avoid sexual intercourse. Additionally, after each sexual encounter, the female should actively urinate and clean the vaginal area. It is recommended that both individuals undergo a thorough examination at a reputable hospital.
