Here Are the Top Home Remedies to Fight Against Frequent UTIs


Frequent UTIs are a problem for many women. Even if you’ve only had one UTI in your life, you probably shudder at the thought of getting another one. Prevention can be worth a pound of cure, in this case a round of antibiotics. UTIs are caused by bacteria in the urinary tract. Once you have a UTI, you will most likely have to make an appointment with your doctor to get medication to get rid of it. However, being proactive can prevent a UTI.

What You Can Do at Home to Prevent UTIs

The best way to prevent UTIs is to flush out the bladder often. Take a two-pronged approach. First, stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Second, when you do have to go to the bathroom, don’t hold it in. The longer you wait between bathroom breaks, the more time bacteria has to grow.

Prevent bacteria in your urinary tract with these remedies:

·         Wear cotton underwear for breathability. Don’t wear tight pants or nylons for long periods of time.
·         A UTI after sex is common. Urinate after sex to flush bacteria out of your urinary tract.
·         Don’t use feminine products that have scents or chemicals. Avoid douching, which upsets the natural balance of bacteria in your system.
·         Take a daily UTI prevention supplement.
·         Avoid baths and hot tubs. Take showers instead.
·         Talk to your doctor about your birth control and how it might be contributing to your UTIs. Diaphragms, spermicides and lubricated condoms can increase the chance of bacteria getting into your urinary system.
·         Wipe from front to back when you use the bathroom.
·         Hormonal imbalances, such as those during pregnancy or menopause, can make a woman more prone to UTIs. Talk to your doctor if you’re experiencing UTIs and think it could be related.

Three Hours City Tour At Ensenada, Mexico

A THREE HOURS CITY TOUR when we embarked in Mexico on the second morning.   My sister booked the three hours city tour in Ensenada, Mexico, a van came to pick us up from the port.  Ensenada is the border of Mexico and it reminds me of Hatyai, a border town too between Malaysia and Thailand.  We were taken to a shopping area where we must haggle for the goods.  LOL.. Yes, something common in my own country... Anyway, we did not buy anything for ourselves... just a wooden handmade truck for my grandson which cost $8usd.   Nothing much to shout about on this three hours excursion, I was so sleepy on the way back to the ship that I dozed off and only awaken when we were driven through the town.  All in all, I just wanted to step onto Mexican soil and I would give this a miss if I were to go on this Mexico cruise again.  LOL... At the open area shopping walking towards the Blowhole... This is La Bufadora Blowhole, an amazing natural marine geyser that is capable of shooting water over 60 fe

Exploring The Sea Cruise Royal Caribbean

CRUISING ALONG.... Once we deposited our bags in our cabins, we had our buffet meal at the Hammerjack restaurant and exactly at 4pm, we heard a loud Horn signal...  ITS TIME TO SAIL ALONG THE PACIFIC OCEAN! And while the ship started to sail, we humans started to walk and explore.... to familarize ourselves inside the ship....  Elevators on each side of the ship....  Making my mark....  On another side....  We walked along to check out our food outlets... This Promenade Cafe  had became our regular joint .... We like to sit there enjoying our hot drinks and desserts... Free flow of food day and night.... Passing through the bars to the casino... The casino will open only when the ship is in international waters...  At one of the jackpot machines... I wonder if they are real?? But they are only $1 bundles... Then we went up to the highest floor.... The swimming deck.... Taken against the sun.... Nice sunset in the evening.... The Happy Trio!

First Day In The Royal Caribbean Cruise To Mexico

ROW ROW ROW YOUR BOAT.... gently down the sea....  Royal Caribbean, it is my second time following this giant vessel, the first time was from Singapore to Phuket, that was a very nice cruise.  So when my son mentioned that he found a good deal online, this time to Mexico, I agreed without hesitation.  Let's Go! A three nights stay with food and lodging only cost around $250 per person with at least one senior in per room.  Meals were either buffet style or fine dining, we can choose and cafes were opened 24 hours for us to rest and relax.  How not to resist... LOL...  And so here we are... just one week after landing in US, I was on the sea....  Looks small from afar...  It was a giant vessel with at least 14 floors.... On the way to embarking after Custom Clearance...  Our room for the next three nights....  Small and cosy.... And adjoining to my son's family room through a door...  The one with balcony cost a bit more...  A short briefing about safety after we checked in....
