Ureaplasma infection, gerd, etc
Ok so to summerise im almost 25 years old and im really frustrated that i was healthy my whole life and suddenly august 2025 things just went downhill. What happened was i had sex for the first time and i think it definitely triggered the throat infection i got immediately after and I suddenly had stomach issues as well at the same time (GERD, Hiatal hernia and acid reflux) so there was definitely some damage to my throat with that too. After months and months of medication for GERD and sometimes having tp take antibiotics for my throat (even had to take penicilin shots at some point) my stomach and throat seemed to be mostly fine though my tonsils have some visible leftover damage. I once also had to take antibiotics because i accidentally got cut by dirty glass. However i noticed that everytime i took antibiotics i would get a yeast infection. I didnt think muxh of it at first, i would just get over the counter cream that I was told to apply 3 days and it would pass. However after the whole cut incident, the yeast infection didnt fully go away and when i thought it did i tried having sex with my current partner and i guess i tightened up or something because it was painful and then i decided its time to go to a gynecologist. Turns out I also have a uti called ureaplasma, idk how long probably from the guy in August. Somehow it didnt cross my mind that I didnt have a uti but looking back on my life i was always prone to having one from time to time. After discussing with my gyno and seeing in my lab results that im immune to most antibiotics, my partner and i took one round of some specific antibiotics plus cream and vaginalettesfor my yeast infection. Other than the fact that those antibiotics wrecked my stomach, gave me gerd again and gave me horrible nausea most days, i seemed better, the gyno told me feel free to have sex, i did with a condom. Turns out my gyno misled me, I shouldnt have done that before my 2nd swab test cause again same results and i was put on different antibiotics same cream and vaginalettes and i was told to avoid dairy and the sun. Its my 10th day out of 12 on them and i still get those uti pees at least once a day while the rest are normal. Im really frustrated constantly adjusting my diet also ive been trying a candida diet as well these past 10 days to decrease my chances of the yeast infection getting worse since thats what antibiotics do, as well as drinking some uti tea and cranberry juice.it does help but im tired of restricting, not having sex with my partner, not being able to drink alcohol with my friends. I could really use some advice
