Answers:
The primary cause is bacteria getting into your urethra and into your bladder. Besure to wipe from front to back and post intercourse wash to ensure any remaining seamen is washed away from your urethra. Otherwise, see your DR and explain what's going on they may want to check the position of your IUDHealth Question & Answer
