If it burns when you pee but you want to get intimate, you may be wondering, "Can you have sex with a UTI?" Here's what doctors recommend. (Plus, the truth about cranberry juice.)

The article from MSN discusses whether it's safe to have sex when suffering from a urinary tract infection (UTI). According to women's health doctors, having sex with a UTI is generally not recommended because it can exacerbate symptoms and potentially lead to complications. Sexual activity can introduce more bacteria into the urinary tract, worsening the infection. Doctors advise waiting until the UTI is fully treated with antibiotics, as sex can cause discomfort, increase the risk of kidney infection, and might even lead to the spread of bacteria to a partner. However, if one must engage in sexual activity, using protection like condoms and ensuring good hygiene practices can help minimize risks. The article also emphasizes the importance of hydration, urinating before and after sex, and seeking medical treatment promptly to manage and prevent UTIs.
