I've been taking antibiotics specifically nitrofurantoin but I got my period in between the medication and now I feel like the symptoms are coming back. Specifically the dysuria and the irritating feeling. Is this a serious thing?
Thanks for your comment Smru! It’s possible that the antibiotic may have only partially treated your previous infection depending on whether or not the bacteria growing was resistant to the antibiotic used or not. Sometimes, it’s also possible to get a reinfection after completing antibiotics as well. I would recommend that if your symptoms get worse despite conservative measures - always see a healthcare provider so they can check your urine and re-assess/examine you!
Loving how informational your videos so far have been! Keep them coming!
