  2. Holy shit. LITERALLY JUST BELIEVE WOMEN AND AFAB PEOPLE WHAT THE FUCK

    (More generally believe femmes too, but I'm not sure how to word this in a way that doesn't overly emphasise length of urethra, although AFAIK that is the main factor for the infections, but not the societal stigma.)

  3. It is so hard to manage infections when the anatomy is not intact

    Here in infants with Vesicoureteric Reflux. Give antibiotic prophylaxis:
    👉 less UTIs
    👉 more antibiotic resistance

    Not a straightforward trade-off given the many courses of antibiotic ahead of these young people's lives...

  4. We commonly use #nitrofurantoin to treat #UTI and even sometimes as prophylaxis for recurrent infections.

    Super safe #antibiotic but a reminder that rarely it can cause serious complications #lung #fibrosis

  5. CW: NSFW: Health Facts

    Reminder that #masturbation is good for your #health!

    #SelfPleasuring has been shown to have clear #psychological benefits, for #SelfEsteem, self #empowerment, #BodyPositivity, and for the relaxation and primal pleasure it brings.

    #Orgasms release chemicals which are good for your body and brain, and move your blood and muscles in a health-promoting way: orgasms promote #heart function and #BloodFlow and #BloodPressure!

    #Ejaculation, male and female, releases substances being stored in the body long-term, keeping seminal and vaginal fluids fresh and flowing, flushing out stale stuff and toxins, preventing everything from overgrowths and #UTI to #ProstateCancer!

    MASTURBATION IS GOOD FOR YOU! Don't let people lie and tell you otherwise! Remember that #NoFap is an #AntiScience cult!

    Please, for your own good, masturbate: your body literally evolved to have regular release!

  6. Inclusion of fosfomycin in prophylaxis guideline (single centre data), big reduction in total antibiotic use
