I keep getting bladder infections...does anyone know what could be causing this? I use spermicide...could that cause a bladder infection? Any advice would be really appreciated, i'm so tired of having these infections, it gets to the point where I feel like screaming when I go pee. This is my third in like 4 months.

they say yes it can.might try something differant.also they say dont use soap down there,aslo ive heard there is a antibotic you take after sex.i guess a one time treatment.however maybe so many antibotics your getting a build up of them.

Now i'm starting to get a stabbing pain in my lower back on the right side. Could that bladder infection have spread to my kidney? I can't go into the doctor because my insurance is not covered right now, i'm in the process of filing for new state health insurance. I dont' know what to do,..I know I need antibiotics. Does anyone have any advice? please

You can not let this go untreated.hopstial ERS have to treat you money or not.also some have a plan that will not make you pay as much and on payments.

I was thinking of calling my doctor and seeing if she'll just prescribe me some antibiotics being as though I'm certain its a bladder infection and then I could just pay for them. I don't know if she'll do that though without first having a culture done. But if I go into the doctors and get a culture without insurance it probably will cost me a bit right? and I don't have much money.
