The Pee Spot

The Pee Spot

This is a bit of a personal post but I felt it to be an important one to share. Recently I went and had a sexual health check up just to make sure I was ok down there, and thank goodness it was all in working order and infection free! But during the check up I did learn a very interesting tip which I wanted to share with you all.

Did you know that urinating before and after sexual intercouse can help to reduce the possibility of contracting a urinary tract infection (UTI). It doesn't help prevent other sexually transmitted infections (STI) but it's a good way to try to clean the tubes out after sex!

Obviously condoms are the ONLY way to fully protect yourself from infection but keeping this little tip in mind could mean avoiding a possible urine infection. I'm sure most of you know that lots of infections have no symptoms so it really is important for you to get regualr check ups. I know so many people who are too scared to go get checked out but surely it's far more devastating to find out years later that you are infertile becasue of an untreated infection? My dear mother sees people like this all the time and it is absolutely devasting. So if you haven't already, go get yourselves checked out and take it from me it's not scary and it doesn't hurt it just puts your mind at rest and allows you to sleep soundly at night, or not as the case may be if you're enjoying a happy and healthy sex life!

A big thanks to my buddy Natalie for perfectly drawing the vital parts and not being embarrassed when people walked past her screen!
