How Can Cystitis And Bladder Infection Be Treated?

i have been told i have cystitis . I have thought the pain meant a bladder infection but they said my urine was clear. i have been having these symptoms over the past many months and it is getting worse. How do i get rid of it? They said when you loose estrogen that it causes this. i am 52 and still having a cycle. i need to get rid of this. How can i do it? Take estrogen? They gave me URO-MP for symptoms but will this cure it? Please help!

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.

Estrogen should not be related to urinary infections including cystitis so you should evaluate cistitis sepparately. These symptoms are suggestive of uroinfection and this is common in your age and usually is manifested with pain during urination, fever and changes in urination frequency.

Also, blood traces may be present in urine which can have odour or colour change. Other common cause are urinary stones. Diagnosis is established by doing urine analysis and if this was negative then you need to do urinoculture and after this antibiotic treatment may be started if necessary.

If there is negative urine analysis then you should do ultrasound of kidneys to check for stones. You should drink plenty of fluids and take raspberry tea or juice to promote urination.
Estrogen may not have any effect on your symptoms unless these are caused by ovarian issues which I doubt.

I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
