Will a urinary tract infection affect my menstrual period?

If the urinary tract infection is mild, it generally will not affect menstruation. If the condition is severe, it may affect menstruation.

Urinary tract infection is mainly caused by bacterial infection. If the patient's condition is mild, the inflammation will generally not affect the vagina or gynecological diseases, so it will not affect menstruation. If the symptoms of urinary tract infection are more serious, causing the patient to have obvious discomfort symptoms such as frequent urination, painful urination, hematuria, etc., if not treated in time, the patient may not be able to rest normally, and may even have adverse effects on the mental and psychological state, which may cause endocrine disorders and affect menstruation.

Patients with urinary tract infection should receive timely treatment regardless of whether their condition is mild or severe. They can use drugs such as ciprofloxacin hydrochloride tablets, norfloxacin tablets, and levofloxacin hydrochloride tablets under the guidance of a doctor. At the same time, they should drink more water and increase urination, which is conducive to promoting the disappearance of inflammation. If menstruation is affected, you can take drugs such as Yi Mu Cao Granules, Wu Ji Bai Feng Pills, and Jia Wei Xiao Yao Pills according to the doctor's advice to improve it.

Usually, you should pay attention to the cleanliness of the genital area, avoid wearing tight and poorly breathable underwear for a long time, avoid unclean sexual life, and ensure adequate water intake every day.
