Hello, It's an infection caused by bacteria. There's painful burning during urination. Some people say that drinking lots of cranberry juice or eating blueberries will help. Someone told me it can be cause by dirty toilet paper, not changing your pad enough, not keeping that area clean, too many bubble baths, etc.

uti's are also commonly caused by sex. you always should try to use the bathroom before and after sex just to clean it all out
