Hello! I have been getting requests for a UTI update video addressing my current regimen and answering frequently asked questions. I do my best to answer some of my FAQs in this video, but I also made a blog post answering not only the questions proposed here, but also a few others I’d say count as FAQs! ✩ Blog Post: www.pelvicempowerment.com/uti-faqs/ ✩ My KAL D-mannose Powder: amzn.to/3rFuhGy (this is an affiliate link, thank you for using it should you choose to!) ✩ Related Videos: → An Ode To My Healing Body: ruclips.net/video/A2gJci6KzRo/видео.html → How To Cure Chronic Yeast Infections: ruclips.net/video/vPKCmddfr5g/видео.html → Should You Douche? ruclips.net/video/73aZIP072Ts/видео.html → Let's Talk About Lubricant! ruclips.net/video/Tbi9ORc47M0/видео.html → Getting Off Of Hormonal Birth Control After 10 Years: ruclips.net/video/4Ll7rv2OL8A/видео.html Thank you for watching 💕
There are two treatments to UTI aside from taking d-mannose,UVA-ursi, marshmallow rootfrequently(which it didn't cure my condition, it just maintains it) 1) high dose introvenous vitamin C(IVC 75grams at a 1gm/min infusion rate), I did that frequently more than recommended frequency, I did 3 days in a row with single day rests(3days, 1day rest, 3day, 1 day rest,...) 2) vaccines, I haven't tried this one yet, called FimCH, ExPEC4V 3)antibiotics are not a cure
Pelvic Empowerment hi Tory, just wanted to let you know I finally beat the dread chronic UTI I had for the last two years. Turns out I was resistant to macrobid, then tried cipro and did not do the trick either. So I started doing ginger and turmeric shots twice a day, plus the d-mannose, probiotics and enzymes to help me digest food as well. Aldo a clean diet as much as I could. It took a while but I did this religiously everyday up until a few days go. Still doing d-mannose once a day, probiotics and enzymes. Will give ginger shots a break for about to weeks and then start again.
Hi, I need help , I can't get rid of UTI doc said I gave alot of bacteria, and ecoli, I'm so tired of taking antibiotics, and I have been in ICU because I had ecoli, n I had to be on IV of Invanz for 8 days .I stay in pin in my pelvic area n my lower back ..plz help me
There is one more thing to consider that my doctor did help with. I got an ultrasound and had a small kidney stone that made the passage in my urethra very small. So I had a procedure where they zapped it and broke it into tiny pieces. That also helped a lot.
Cranberry, D-Mannose, hydration, Vit C, a strict sexual activity regimen, cotton underwear, methanamine, and a caring cooperative KNOWLEDGEABLE doctor who might consider genetic testing the strain of bacteria involved. Have FAITH, never give up, and SHARE.
@@hmartin751 If I had to guess, no fingers, no oral, as a mouth can have germs, and fingers as well. BTW I am a male and have no idea how I got my infection, never had a UTI in my life, then one day I am in sepsis, still battling the infection, antibiotics work fine, but as soon as I am off, it comes back done 3 cycles of Antibiotics, so not taking them again, using all the natural treatments I can, I seem to have it under control, but still have it. D-mannose latest research says it does not have any benefit, that was in a double blind trial, I am still going to take it, i still think it has potential specially if you combine it with a extremely low carb diet.
Probably, Same as mine, Both pee & Shower before & after, leave some in your bladder, so it will flush your uter’s, after sex. P.S.If you do any do any butt play, you both must clean up b4 entering the main 💜.. Brush teeth, clean everything! Definitely a Mood-buster, find you a good man! We are just Super Sensitive to Foreign germs! I told my BF, if he cheats my body will tell me. But I know it really is a nightmare! Always Worried.
I’ve been dealing with chronic UTI’s for almost three years now. I can’t even count how many doctors visits, specialists ive seen and antibiotics I’ve been put on. Each time a UTI would occur, the feeling of depression and hopelessness would come over me. It caused me to miss work and lose my overall quality of life. After consistently taking D Mannose in pill form I was UTI free for about 7 months which was unheard of for me. Unfortunately I am experiencing a flare up right now and am so upset due to the success I was having. Seeing this video about the powder immediately had me purchase it online. This is the first video I’ve come across that I’ve truly identified with and mirrors what I’m going through. Thank you for bringing a little peace of mind to my day 😭
Your story hits so close to home! I, too, was UTI-free for a number of months while taking the d-mannose pills but managed to contract another UTI maybe 6 months in. Switching to the powder made the world of difference for me. I really hope that is the case for you, too 💛 I'm so glad this video was helpful! I wish you the absolute best and don't hesitate to reach out with any questions 🤗
I need advice how can I stop getting these. Its really affecting my mental health. I just seem to keep getting antibiotics through at me.. which is not the solution.
@@nanaa428 Other than the two UTIs I contracted back to back on my honeymoon in the beginning of 2020 (totally my fault, I didn't take my d-mannose like I should've), I haven't gotten any since making this update video!
@@PelvicEmpowerment that's great to hear! my little sister has had chronic utis since the beginning of 2020 and nothing has worked so far for her. Ill purchase some d mannos for her, fingers crossed
I found another video from a Functional Med Dr and he said to take 1 tsp D Mannose for an acute infection every 2 hrs the first day, every 3 hrs the second day, and every 4 hrs the third day. I tried it after not having a uti for 25 years and just recently got one and it worked super well. I figured out that eating a low carb diet and intermittent fasting helped immensely as well as sugar and carbs are NOT my friend! Thank you Tori for all the info.
Hi Tori, I know I've told you this before....but you saved my life with D-Mannose. Just wanted to thank you again. I was in a world of hurt until my DMannose arrived by Amazon. I don't say this lightly Tori. I am a cancer survivor, SLE disabled me 20 yrs ago and lifelong Crohn's, lifelong! So at 60 I've lived on steroids more than not. My bladder irregular shape doesn't drain completetly and I get a UTI everytime I catheterize....ugh I QUIT doing that and drink more water and take DMannose daily. I would rather die than self-catheterize so THANK YOU. I was going out of my mind iving on antibiotics and having it raise hell with my Crohn's..... You are an angel. Keep doing what you're doing please. God Bless You!
Aww, thank you so, so much for the kind words. I am so glad you are feeling better, and I am so honored to have played a part in your healing journey 💕 wishing you only the best -- now and always!
Be sure to use 100% cranberry with no sugar added. You can also add a Tbsp. Of apple cider vinegar with a mother because it is a powerful antimicrobial to fight fungus and bacterial infections. Refrain from bathing and shower instead. Avoid baths because it can be an irritant due to the soap in the bath water. Just wash the area with plain water.
Legit sitting on the toilet with another UTI (from Australia lol). I think I’m up to about 8 this year! Just been on antibiotics which didn’t help but finding your videos I have now ordered D-Manosse. Thankyou x
Ugh, I can so relate to this feeling. 8 UTIs in a year is just about where I used to average. D-mannose genuinely changed my life, but do know that it only works if the bug responsible for your infections is E. coli. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, and I wish you nothing but the best ❤
I woke up with blood in my urine and severe cramps when urinating. I didn’t want to go to the doctor and get an antibiotic. I decided to try natural remedies. I started to guzzle water with vinegar immediately and made myself a tea with fresh mint , yarrow, honey and rose hips - all from my garden except the honey. My cramps and the bleeding were gone that afternoon. Nancy Stewart
I feel like crying I just can't believe that finally found a something that really works, I have spent a lot of money, seeing different doctors who only prescribed antibiotics, you all this d'mannose is a miracle, I'm so grateful I thought I was gonna suffer for the rest of my life from this uti, you all I AM UTI FREE D'mannose is only product that helped me, I can now swim, have sex without worrying about having an uti the following day.
Ahh, I could cry with you! D-mannose changed my life in the exact same way it changed yours, and it continues to be a part of my daily routine for those reasons. I'm so glad that it's working for you the way it works for me! There's nothing like freedom and peace in your body, and I'm so glad d-mannose helps you feel free and peaceful!
On Tuesday I did a urine test and was positive for a UTI. I watched this video and started the regimen you recommended. I did another urine test on Wednesday and it was negative!!!! My symptoms slowly subsided throughout the day on Tuesday. I’m keeping up the schedule for the next few days to ensure it’s completely gone. I’m so grateful for this knowledge. I was skeptical but it worked for me!! THANK YOU!!!!!!
I am so, so happy to hear that you've had some good positive indicators of success with d-mannose! It really has changed my life. I hope that you are able to fully clear your UTI -- don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, and best of luck ❤
My mom is taking this ( i found this by accident , D mannose) and she has not had any problem since !!! it's amazing , she was suffering with those infections and got so fustrated and stressed, it works very well , Thank God , and thank you
Thanks for pointing me to this video, I just subscribed to your channel. I’ve been getting UTIs very frequently, and it definitely is a hard subject to talk about sometimes. It is really refreshing to have more women being open about these things. It is so very helpful, and needs to be talked about a lot more. I bought some D-Mannose after watching your video, and I am already feeling mentally and physically better.
It can be so hard to talk about! When it was happening to me, it really affected my self-esteem and my ability to feel completely in the moment during sex because I was always, in the back of my mind, worried about an infection. I am SO glad to hear that you are feeling mentally and physically better 🤗 I am hopeful that d-mannose can do for you what it has done for me! And thank you so much for subscribing. This channel is a passion project, and your support means the world 💕
Aww, you are so welcome! I am so glad you are feeling less alone and have a sense of direction moving forward, that's wonderful news ❤️ Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! Wishing you only the best 😊
Great video! i remember asking you so many questions two years ago, for my wife, who was suffering from uti's. She used D-Mannose, like you had suggested and her infection's finally stopped. It took several months, if I remember correctly, for it to finally work, but it did. She has not had an infection for two years, or the last time I had written to you. She has a bottle of D-Mannose in the refrigerator, just in case, an infection occurs. You are a natural for this! Great delivery and it's easy on the ears. I see now that you are married. In the last video, two years ago, you were talking about waiting outside your boyfriends house, because he was sleeping. You did the video in your car, which was impromptu, but of good quality. I think you have a promising future doing this kind of education for men and women. I believe we will be seeing much of you in years to come! Good luck, and much Mahalo. Aloha, from Kaneohe, Hawaii.
Dennis!! I remember you and your wife! I am so, so, so happy to hear that her infections have finally stopped. I know just how challenging chronic infections can be to navigate -- I'm ecstatic you are both on the other side of it ❤ thank you for the kind words about my delivery and my voice. Seriously, this channel is a passion project for me. Your gentle encouragement goes such a long way. We are engaged! We're getting married in October of this year :) I remember the video you're talking about! Haha, he was asleep in the apartment for a night shift while I was filming in my car. Thank you for the luck! Much Mahalo to you as well. Aloha ❤
@@PelvicEmpowerment I remember your video two years ago. It was good, but your delivery is even better now! You are a very good speaker. It is a nice smooth manner "easy on the ears"...there's a rhythm to your words, almost melodic. You also come across, as an honest,believable person. I think you would well in the field of communications. Good luck, with your wedding, by the way, where are you folks getting married?
@@hawaiidoves Aww, thank you so, so much -- genuinely, it means a lot to me! We are getting married back on the east coast -- super small group, easy ceremony, good food. It'll be a wonderful day ❤
@@PelvicEmpowerment On the east coast? My wife, grew up in Boston, and have been living in Hawaii for 44 years. We've been married for 23 years, and got married on the Big Island, in a town called Kapaau. My mother's side of the family is from Kapaau. My parents are gone, but my wife's dad is still living in Florida, and will be 91 this year! He is healthy as a "horse." Good luck, with your wedding, and may you have a happy marriage!
❤ great video, Ty Baking soda and water works super fast. 1/2 table spoon to 1 glass water drink and good to go. Some people may need to repeat, works great. 💯✌️🙏❤️🕯️🎈🌻😊
you posted this video at the perfect time! I was just about to purchase the pills cos I saw your last video, but then I saw that you uploaded this one and I went for the powder immediately ! thank you
Dennis!! I remember you and your wife! You're in Hawaii, if I remember correctly?? I'm so happy that your wife continues to be UTI-free -- please tell her I said "hi" back 🤗
@@PelvicEmpowerment yes, that's us. She has other issues now, but as far as uti's, that's not a problem. Keep on making those useful videos. You do a good job speaking, and you come across as a honest person. Much Mahalo, and aloha!
@@hawaiidoves I remember you both 💕 I'm so sorry to learn that your wife is navigating other issues, but I am ecstatic that she at least doesn't have bladder infections to worry about. And thank you so, so much for your kind words and gentle encouragement to continue making videos. This year has been so challenging, and it's been very difficult to continue creating/to feel creative. Encouragements like yours really motivate me to keep going, so thank you, sincerely 🤗
Almost in tears watching this. So nice to hear some hope from someone who knows exactly how I feel. 😭😭 I have been seeing a urologist with no help. I have been dealing with UTIs so long I am now antibiotic resistant to three different antibiotics. I’m terrified to have sex. 😭 I’m going to try ALL your recommendations. Thank you so much!! ❤️❤️
Oh my goodness, I am so, SO sorry to learn about your struggle with chronic UTIs & your COMPLETELY VALID resulting fear of sex. When I was navigating chronic UTIs, it was oral sex that I was absolutely terrified of. The beautiful thing about your brain is that it is plastic -- its ideas and thoughts surrounding certain activities can change. It took a while, but after collecting positive experiences around oral sex again and again, my brain's interpretation of the activity changed, and I'm SO confident that yours can too 💛 I really hope d-mannose can do for you what it has done for me. I wish you the absolute best on your healing journey.
Wonderful video (as well as the Gerd one)! I found a company called Uqora started by a woman who got frequent UTI’s and her husband. I follow their protocol which includes DMannose in water every 3 days and some capsules with other things. I did get another so I switched to using their powder every morning and it stopped. Got one more recently so going to use my MicroIngredients D Mannose in a glass of water at night as well, 3/4 tsp as you do. Also I drink something like 8 glasses of water a day. Water is important. Thanks Tori for helping so many women!!!
Since childhood I was prone to uti's both kidney and bladder. I had a pelvic kidney. Often they are unproblematic and people go their entire lives not knowing they have them. Mine was positioned upside down though which kinked my ureter. It was recently removed and ive had success with using dmannose if I experience any symptoms but otherwise have been UTI free. Found your video and am glad to know about the powder to add to my tool kit. Thank you!
As I commented on her older video, GIRLS ! D Mannose saved my life! I take one-two pills every time after sex or anything “risky” and I haven’t gotten one since.. if you feel a uti coming on drink TONS of water, bathe in apple cider with warm water, & started your d mannose pill, hope This helps cus it helped me, xoxo !
you have no idea how much this video honest to god gave me hope. i’m so excited to try your ideas. i was getting hopeless for a while there. thanks so much ❤️✨
I am so happy to hear that! D-mannose really did change my life. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, and I wish you only the best 🤗💖
Thank You so much!! I took the time on your 1st video to write things brown to ask my Urologist!! I had a mess bladder left done in 2021 and I have had 9 UTI!! I am on D-Mannose and hopefully we will see some good!!
Hi Tori, Thank you for this video. I have a uti and feel awful. Listening to you has given me renewed hope that I can get well. I have done much research and have tried many products. They help somewhat, but not totally. I am looking forward to trying the Kal powder and praying that it will be my answer as well. Many blessings to you for caring about others with this problem.
Ugh, I am so sorry to hear it. I know how awful a UTI feels. Remember that d-mannose is only effective if the bug causing your UTI is E. coli! Otherwise, d-mannose won't be helpful. It really has changed my life! Let me know if you have any questions, and I wish you only the best. Cheers to feeling better soon ❤
In the last 4 months, I've been taking more than 7 rounds of antibiotics due to UTI. And it messed my gut microbiome, I often had constipation in some days, food allergies, etc. What I noticed was that my UTI always comes back when I consume high oxalates food, even though I took d-Mannose, oregano oil... And when I had an USG, even though it showed that I didn't have kidney stones, doctor found that I had a lot of crystals in my bladder. I thought the UTI and crystals was not related but it turns out that it was. One of the comment in this video mentioned a book titled "Toxic Superfoods" by Sally K. Norton and it's really eye-opening. I will change my diet starting from tomorrow ro low oxalate diet and I hope that this UTI will not come back anymore.
Getting this powder as soon as my Walgreens or CVS opens. I hope they have it because I don't have time to order it. NEED NOW! Thank you so much for your video.💜
I hope you're able to find it at a local pharmacy, I've only ever been able to find it online! Wishing you the best, so glad this was helpful for you 💕
Please watch the video or check out the FAQs page linked in the video’s description, everything you’ve asked is outlined in detail in both resources ❤️
I had a UTI since May 2024. Usually I had a few bladder infections a year (3-5), but none of them were as bad as this was. I had to try 4 different antibiotics, the last one I had to take preventatively for 3 months. I had a new partner since March, but the problems only started in May, as I mentioned before. I thought about anything that could have caused this, and the worst idea is that it is because of my new partner. We quickly became a couple in June, and even didn‘t have Sex for a whole month because it just hurt so much. My pee was bloody and my lower stomach would cramp up so much I coulnd‘t even stand up. This time was the worst of my whole life. Apparently the third antibiotic worked but my doctor still advised me to take the 3-month antibiotic to prevent further UTIs. I was so scared that it was my boyfriend, as my doctor said it is 100% his fault. He even told me to get back on the pill. I didn‘t know what to do, because everyone on the Internet was also saying it was my boyfriend and that he‘s not the right one for me as my body is „showing me“ by the UTIs that he is not good for me. Since watching the video I have a good feeling about everything, I even cried because you talked about your fiancé and how he is not the reason for your UTIs. I‘m taking probiotics and the „Now“ D-Mannose. The UTI is gone but I still have a tingling sensation whenever I pee. It‘s not the feeling of a bladder infection but rather my bladder kind of stinging, if that makes sense. This has been going on since forever and I‘m really clueless. I haven‘t had Sex for 6 months, as I‘m doing my semester abroad now and soon, my partner and I will meet again and obviously it will come to Sex more often. Which is why I‘m scared that the bladder infection will come back. I really don‘t know what to do and I‘m kind of hopeless. If you read until this part, thank you so much for listening to my story and I‘m accepting any kind of advice!
Hi, fellow Physio (in Training) here :) I have also suffered from chronic UTIs for the past 15 years. My hypothesis is that I used to get so many antibiotics when I was a kid and even also as an adult. I think my microbioma is not ideal. Also I think biofilm has got something to do with it. It often feels like it is something systemic, I also get UTIs easier when I drink white wine and/or beer, for example. The hypothesis about anatomy sounds plausible, but tbh 1 or 2 cm don't really make a big difference is what I think. I think it is more important what kinds of bacteria etc. are being transportet from the back to the front. Also, the lymphatic system kind of connects colon, vagina and urethra. For me personally, I still get UTIs even if I take a shower after sex, and tbh I have never not wiped from the front to the back. Still, I get UTIs. In my case I really believe it is a systemic thing and something with the microbioma is off.You also mentioned that you had to use probiotics and in your other video you said, that is a whole different story - I wonder why? I mean these things are so closely connected. I am going to do a colon cleanse again, as last time I didn't have UTIs for a few months after. Thank you for making these videos, it really helps to know that others also have the same problem.
I am very grateful for your video!! I have had uti's for five years and I am so tired of antibiotics, I feel that they're no longer an effective solution. I already asked for Kal D-Mannose and I hope it will help me just like it did for you.
I so hear you. Are your UTIs usually caused by E. coli? If so, I have high hopes that d-mannose will be as effective for you as it is for me -- it has improved my quality of life so much! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out! Wishing you nothing but the best ❤️
It's always caused by E. Coli :( I'm already drinking Kal D mannose, I hope it helps me. Thank you very much for your concern 🥰 If I have some news I'll tell you 😊
@@chagrinsloigne Has it worked for you? Just wondering becuase it's been a month since you commented and I'm wondering if it has worked for you. I have chronic UTI's and I'm desperate for opinions and results for the Dmannose supplement.
Hi there and thank you so much for this. I have had multiple UTIs over the past ten years. No offence please but Dr.Rena Malik is a urologist and says on her website: "there is nothing wrong with your personal hygiene so stop 'freaking out". She appears to be truthful in her opinion. with a huge following of 1.7 million followers. And yes we are all different. Your comments please.
Thank you so much for all this research and information-of course my Dr. didn't give me any of this information. At 81 I've not been bothered with uti - that I know of. But now I am, but don't have any symptoms. I shall definitely try your suggestion. Thanks
Tori, U r just AMAZING! Ur gratitude & positivity are infectious! I am so grateful 2 u for ur willingness to share & help us women 2 understand/help heal & be aware of our bodies. U truly help us reach 'BODY LITERACY', a term I came upon in feminist/female anatomy literature, that I truly believe we need, as women, in order 4 us to have heightened awareness/control of our bodies & optimal health, both gynecologically & systemically, but really, they are both ARE interconnected. SINCERE THANKS! PS I am a woman despite my screen name. : - )
Wow, thank you so, so much for the kind words! I like the idea of "body literacy," and it is an honor to be helping women become more body literate 💕 I remember you shared that you are a woman despite your screen name in a previous comment! I hope you are well, and a sincere thanks to you for watching, commenting, and being here 🤗
I've been struggling with chronic UTI's for 20 years now and I think I've tried everything including D-mannose .The problem with the recurrent UTI is the biofilm that the bacteria is forming into the bladder and this is how the bacteria protects itself and becomes antibiotic resistant.I managed to put this under control for 4 years using oregano oil( which is natural antibiotic). In order to destroy the biofilm I would suggest using some natural biofilm destroyers such as garlic, turmeric, tea tree oil etc along with taking oregano oil and D mannose. Since I'm not a doctor please consult your urologists before taking any further actions.Good luck everyone!
Thank you so, so much for sharing your experience. I appreciate it not only because it may help someone scrolling through the comments, but also because it can help me in passing information along to others who need more than d-mannose. I am SO glad that, after 20 years, you've been able to figure out how to heal your body. What an experience, and what a triumph. Thank you again for this comment. I wish you nothing but the best 🤗
@@PelvicEmpowerment Thank you for being so helpful Tori and thank you for sharing your experience that might help many people who are desperately looking for alternative solution. I really admire your initiative and I also hope that my experience will help too. I’m open for any further consultation if needed. Stay safe and UTI’s free :)
I had the same problem as you, so I found by chance Solary yeast _cleanse ( I think because it has got garlic, might help with killing the bacteria. + D- Mannose…. At the same time, if I had any itching I would take : Urological Tea for Urinary Tract Problems - Kidneys & Bladder (20 Tea Bags 40g), I think this tea is from Slovenia, but I got it from Amazon, works within hours to stop itching… 👀… D-mannose and solary, I took it consistently for 3 months to see results… I’ve been clear for about 7 months… Can’t believe it….
I’m very happy to see you talking about D-mannose. No one talks about it! I take D-mannose everyday and today I’m having my first UTI since 5 months. I took an antibiotic because I’m not very good at managing the pain, but honestly the progress are very good! I would like to be able to not use any antibiotic even when I’m experiencing one just like you, do you have any tricks to manage the pain? Sorry for my english I speak french😇
Your English is wonderful! And I am SO happy to hear that d-mannose has been such a helpful tool for you, it really did change my life. A few things to share: 1. I highly recommend the d-mannose powder over the pills, not only for trying to treat an acute UTI, but also for preventative doses 2. I do think it is possible to cure an acute UTI (if it caused by E. coli) with d-mannose, so long as you catch it early! 3. As far as pain management goes, I really like pyridium -- it is over the counter, and it numbs the bladder (but it will make you urinate bright orange!). I've used pyridium to manage the pain while treating an acute UTI with d-mannose! Let me know if you have any other questions and I wish you only the best 💕
Very similar history to yours, for the past 10 years I’ve gotten 8-10 UTIs a year. Just cured my first acute UTI with d-mannose!!! Thank you for all this amazing information, I’m so hoping my new preventive regime continues to work.
@@ShadowRap-y5lpill, honestly I know I’ll miss doses if I use powder daily. I’ve been taking it daily since watching this video and have had a significant decrease in my symptoms with no major UTI or need for Azo or antibiotics.
@@ShadowRap-y5l if antibiotics are not working, you need a urine culture to determine what your bacteria is susceptible to. I’ve had chronic UTIs since I was 16, getting 5+ a year. Now I can tell when one is coming on from a very slight irritation/uncomfortable feeling after urinating. When I feel that I take extra d-mannose on top of my regular preventative dose. So far have been able to keep that at bay.
@@tiffaniarmstrong4888 Is it ok to still have intercourse even while taking D mannose? So far the urintation has stopped. But I randomly get ants biting feeling around my body. Not sure why
Hi! I really love your videos and have watched pretty much all of them to help my search in figuring out how to help/prevent symptoms of a UTI. I was hoping you could make a video about the possible causes of symptoms of a UTI without the actual infection! I have been struggling with this for months and months and would love to hear your thoughts on the possible causes of symptoms of a UTI without the presence of infection/bacteria. :) I would LOVE to see a video like that!! 😊❤️
I hate hearing that you've been navigating UTI-like symptoms for months without having an active infection. I really hope that you are able to find peace in your body and remain kind to yourself during this time. Thank you so much for the request -- I just added it to my list and would love to make that video! Until then, have you ruled in/out your pelvic floor? If you think of your pelvic floor like any other muscle, you can imagine that when there is a threat, it tightens up. Kind of like if you were going to be punched in the stomach -- your abdomen might tighten to protect you. The same is true of your pelvic floor when you have a bladder infection, the bladder lives right on top of the pelvic floor and it will sometimes tighten up to protect you. When someone has chronic infections, sometimes the pelvic floor will forget to let go even after an infection has resolved and it can FEEL like a UTI. I've treated a number of women for this exact presentation in clinic! If you live in the US, you can use this directory to find a provider near you: pelvicrehab.com Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, and thank you again for the request. Wishing you only the best 💕
U just don’t understand how much this video means to me. I have Extremely chronic UTI’s for so long & it all began when I 1st had sex. I’m still with my same partner but it was so difficult. I then got Small Intestinal Bacteria overgrowth from the over use of antibiotics for my utis. I’ve been so depressed. It’s just been so hard. Nobody really understands, but I will definitely be taking this powder to stop these uti’s and eventually heal my sibo as well. Thank you for this. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I am so sorry to hear that you've been suffering, but I really hope this technique can alleviate the chronicity of your UTIs. Don't forget that d-mannose is only effective if the bug causing your UTIs is E. coli! I take it after sex every time, and I also try my best to urinate after sex. I really hope d-mannose helps you in the way it has helped me. SIBO is something that I am still learning about -- I have had multiple requests to make videos covering different topics related to SIBO and very much intend to create that content. I hope that you are able to get back to feeling like yourself soon. Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, and I wish you nothing but the best 💕
Thank you. I appreciate u so much. I’m almost positive this all started with e coli. I will definitely give this a try. I definitely subscribed because Your videos are SO GREAT! I struggle with sever constipation because of this Horrible sibo & chronic uti’s. All those antibiotics really killed both good and bad bacteria in me. I am trying so hard to get rid of all this.
@@jbugarin94 that sucks... I thought I was loosing my mind when mine also became chronic and no freaking doctors were able to help.. Im currently taking juniper and bidens tintures and D-manose... for the sibo i took pau d arco tea and coloidal silver. I also added to my regimen vitamin c liposomal... sounds like a lot, but D-manose alone did not work for me...
Ugh, I'm so happy to hear that d-mannose has helped you like it continues to help me! It really changed my life, and I'm so happy it's working for you 🤗
Wow this might actually change my life, been getting UTI's since I was 16 and in the last year or so at least every month. Had resigned myself to knocking back antibiotics after sex and using them to self treat too, but now I think my immune system is knackered; I only need to go out on errands for a few hours and I get sick with something (often more cystitis, yay) and it just really wears away at you when pretty much any fun activity carries a high likelihood of making your life miserable tomorrow. Thank you so much for sharing! (and shout out to Dr Gregor on youtube for mentioning d mannose and it's actual effectiveness - I assumed it was just cranberry pills all over again).
Holly, I am so, so sorry to hear about you getting chronic UTIs since you were 16. I can relate to that so personally, and I know how frustrating it can be, and how easily it can seep into self-confidence, relationships, and the ability to be present. I really hope that you find relief with D-mannose. It really did change my life. Just remember that it only works if the bug causing your UTIs is E. coli! Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions, and I wish you only the best 💕
Where do you get the information that D-mannose ONLY works on E coli? What is your SOURCE? What about other infections caused by KLEBSIELLA, which also is a common bowel organism? BTW, I am diabetic and I closely monitor my BS with a CGM. D-mannose does NOT spike my BS.
been to the doctor 3 times and I still have gotten them every month for at least 5 months. I as well am always clean w my partner I've been with for 1yr and a few. Im currently in pain like crazy, can't sleep, back pain, stomach pain, burning, all the works lol. I'm about to visit the pharmacy tomorrow after a doctor visit and I'm going to ask them about this for myself, still getting them regardless lol!
Ugh, I am so, so sorry you're experiencing chronic UTIs and all of the pain you've described. I know that feeling of defeat and exhaustion and frustration so well. Have you gotten any of these infections cultured? If it is E. coli causing your infections, I am very hopeful that d-mannose can help you the way it has helped me. I am still UTI-free to this day 💕 I hope d-mannose is the right tool for you, and I hope that you find relief soon! Please don't hesitate to ask any questions, and I wish you a speedy recovery and only the best 🤗
Man o man I hope your better. You are the only other one who has back pain in list of symptoms. I've been worried about that part but they did bloodwork amd kidney function is fine. Idk for sure how long I had before starting d mannose. I think maybe 3 or 4 days so hopefully it helps my acute uti. My UA bateria was 4+ and wbc 6-10 idk compared to others how bad that even is. Stressful. But any how hope and prayers to you that you no longer suffer with these
Thank you for this video and information . Your story has been my story. E. coli UTI’s every time I had an infection, can tell one is starting immediately just by change in urine odor (before not feeling good) and i’ve been using D mannose in pill form prophylactically. The only difference is I’ve been trying to treat with pill form of d mannose so will try the powder. Thank you! I appreciate your information.
Oh wow you helped me a whole bunch before and then you helped me a ton more with things that I didn't even think about asking, haha. Thank you again! (:
You're so kind, thank you so much for your comment 🤗 And yes! If your UTIs are caused by E. coli, I'm very hopeful you can turn your experience around, too 💛
Just wanted to update my last comment - D-Mannose powder started working within 5 hours of taking first dose (for an active UTI caught early stages) like mentioned in the video! I haven't had to take any antibiotics yay! Brings me peace of mind big time. Would still like to know whether you or anyone has had the powder fail as preventative measure? And if so for any thoughts to why it failed? My Hiprex prevention seemed to fail on me after 2 years of no UTI, unless i for some reason increased 'risky behaviour' or didnt have enough. Hopefully this is superior Woohoo feeling SO much better within a good timeframe too! Can't believe no doctor out of all the ones i have seen never mentioned it.
Yay! I am SO glad it is working for you, and I'm so happy that you're feeling hopeful 💛 D-mannose has not failed me yet, but that doesn't mean it hasn't failed for others. Hopefully others will see this comment and be able to add their experiences!
@@shauhwydhevs in Australia it's an anti-bacterial medicine you can buy without a prescription at the pharmacy, not an antibiotic. But i think in some other countries it's slightly different and is an antibiotic. Worth asking your local pharmacy! I used that before finding d-mannose and it worked, is a bit cheaper but isn't as natural
Thank you again, you pretty much covered everything I was thinking about doing the antibiotics and then the d-mannose. Not sure if it’s E. coli this time, but it has been in the past pretty much every time. Waiting on my urine culture results. Awesome video thank you
You are so, so welcome! I have found that if I don't catch the UTI early, the d-mannose powder helps with the symptoms but doesn't knock out the infection. Whereas, if I catch the UTI early (that first "off" pee), I can knock out the infection with the d-mannose! I hope the powder works for you 💕 again, don't hesitate to ask any questions!
@@PelvicEmpowerment hi there, could you help me please ? This is the issue I am having. I started taking d mannose a few days late when I realised I had a UTI... should I just carry on taking it or do I need antibiotics?
@@allthingsjana7870 I am honored that you're comfortable asking me for guidance; however, I cannot give individualized medical advice. If you're at all concerned and feel you may have started taking the d-mannose "too late," I can only encourage you to check-in with a provider you trust to see if it may be time to start taking antibiotics! I've had experiences where I caught the UTI early enough and was able to treat it with d-mannose, and experiences where I caught the infection "too late" and, while the d-mannose did decrease my symptoms, I ended up needing antibiotics in order to clear it fully. I wish I could be more helpful, and I hope that you get to feeling better soon ❤️
I just want to thank you so much for all of the info you’ve provided regarding UTIs. I refer to your videos often since I also suffer from recurrent UTIs & I have my D-mannose as you’ve recommended :) I was wondering if you experienced any negative side effects (leaky gut, arthritis, etc) from all of the antibiotics you previously used to cure the UTIs & what you did to overcome them. Thank you so much again ❤️
You are so welcome! I am so glad that the videos are helpful for you -- I hope d-mannose is doing for you what it has done for me ❤️ Excellent question. Interestingly, I did not have any health issues related to the high intake of antibiotics I used to take that I'm aware of (thank goodness!). I did, however, have a longstanding upper GI issue (acid reflex/GERD) due to my hormonal birth control. I have a couple of videos that may be helpful in that realm: - Birth Control & Gut Health: ruclips.net/video/Dr2i27aCSTU/видео.html - How I Cured GERD: ruclips.net/video/CE2_N7EBX7k/видео.html Let me know if you have any other questions! Wishing you health and safety during this uncertain time 🤗
Pelvic Empowerment Thank you! And yup I totally love the D-mannose. I need to be more consistent with it though, but otherwise I’m so happy I discovered it through your channel. Thanks for the info :)
I had several back to back UTI's for over a year. Prior to that I had been suffering for a long time with "almost" UTI's--testing showed no bacteria present. I finally went to a Functional Med Dr and she had me take a very expensive urine culture ($275) every time I got one to identify the exact bacteria. Each time I was put on a different antibiotic. The result was that my gut got totally destroyed even though I was taking probiotics. Interesting that a very expensive Dr who's supposed to be knowledgeable in natural healing didn't recommend this. I found out just like this gal did that D Mannose was the answer, but I must EMPHASIZE that I clearly wasn't drinking enough water, so I increased my intake exponentially. I thought I was drinking enough- about 8 10oz glasses, but in reality I wasn't. I'm now drinking 10-11 10 oz glasses a day (very intentially) and when I get UTI symptoms it's usually bc I've slacked off on drinking enough. I recently got another one and I'm back on the D Mannose along with an herbal tincture. Once this one clears up I'm going to do the maintenance that is recommended in this very good video.
I suggest you if you may to wear a period reusable pants or underwear all the time, so they can absorb any sweat, specially in the gym or while you doing alike activities
Hi!!! Im so glad I found your videos and I bought this and so excited to try! A quick question, as a preventative, do you take it before sex as well? Or just in the morning and right after sex?
I'm excited for you, too! Excellent question. I alway take it once in the morning no matter what and after sex (and after other "risky" behaviors), but I think you could take it before sex/risky behaviors and still have a good preventative outcome 🤗
I would like to give my experience with uti's, now first of all I am a guy, so uti's or less frequent, in some respects more serious with guys... I had issues with very small kidney stones which I suspect led to my uti, in which I discovered at my local Hospital after I was having trouble urinating and was promptly given antibiotics... By the third day after every dose I felt like I was going to pass out, went back to the hospital and they said it was all "in my head". I knew there had to be another way and I discovered D-Mannose. But I take the pills instead for a couple of reasons, one I find that if I am not careful how I store the powder it will get hard and un-useable, two- it makes it easier for me to dose out, I break open 3 capsules (1.5 grams) and pour it into at least 8 ounces of water, once a day, seems to work well for me... By the way I use the Now Brand...Men sometimes has to deal with this too...
I've found that D-mannose may be helping to prevent UTIs for me, however I quickly discovered that once I already had a UTI, the only thing that cured it was the antibiotics. I tried to follow recommended doses of d mannose but was still miserable! I also tried the pills though so maybe next time I'll try out the powder.
I’ve found the powder to be much more effective than the pills, but I can only cure an acute UTI with dmannose powder if I catch the infection very early. Wishing you the best ❤️
I needed B12 injections to finally stop the low immunity. Also stopped other infections upper respiratory/ herpes lips and being very tired. But another suggestion is going to/ or get in contact with Eliava Phage Therapy in Georgia to get bacteriofages at the Eliava institute. They help people who have resistant bacteria. It's a brilliant way to help the resistant bacteria.
You're so welcome! I am so glad you are feeling hopeful -- I am still UTI free, today 💕 Please don't hesitate to ask any questions, and I wish you nothing but the best!
I bought the pill form so can I just mix the powder from the pill in a drink or do I have to swallow the pill. Also, does d mannose help yeast infections too
Pelvic Empowerment , I get my tests results back to see what is hopefully up with these supposed utis and then I’m starting these!! I hope they work for me!
Awesome video!!! Love it! If you were to go on a mini getaway for 3 days or so and you know that you will be doing the beach/running/risky behavior type of things all day..would you suggest taking the maximum amount of servings in powder form which would be 2 servings each day or would you suggest more? Do you have to space out when you take the servings? For example: wake up take a serving, go to beach, then maybe go hiking and maybe go dancing later. So all day would be considered risky stuff when you’re away!
When I partake in all-day risky behavior, I usually take the d-mannose after each activity is over. So I would wake up, take my morning dose, go to the beach/hang out in my bikini, take a second dose, and then go hiking/exercise, take a third dose, and then go dancing in tight clothing and probably take a fourth dose after that. That being said, I'm not sensitive to d-mannose, and I don't often take more than two doses/day, so having a couple of days here and there that are outside of my typical routine doesn't worry me. That being said, I can't give individualized medical advice! If you aren't sure how much you should be taking and are not comfortable running a sort of trial-and-error experiment with yourself, I can only recommend seeking input from a healthcare provider you trust ❤️ Enjoy your mini-vacation 🤗
Pelvic Empowerment this was very helpful. Thank you so much for you reply! I will have to experiment and see what works for me. So far, haven’t had any issues taking three of the Now brand d-mannose 500mg pills after each activity. I really appreciate all your help..thank god for you and your videos!!! Keep being an amazing human! :)
I had my first UTI at 78. I had flank pain -- very scary. Is that normal? They put me in the hospital but I never saw a doctor or nurse. Then suddenly they kept telling me l needed to be discharged. Were they just using me to fill a room until someone else needed it more ?
Could some of you please advise me regarding chronic UTIs not caused by e. coli but by many different kinds of other germs/bacteria? When stressed I get many UTIs (6 since the end of August), although escherichia coli has not come back since I started taking d-mannose. Thanks for this great and instructive video !
I'm so sorry to learn about your struggles with chronic UTIs. While I'm ecstatic that d-mannose has knocked out E. coli, I really hope that you're able to figure out how to eliminate the other causes of your infections. I really wish I could be more helpful. Wishing you the best 💛
Hi thank you for your video. You mentioned that D mannose only works for E-coli, but it worked to me for the last 2 years to prevent from UTIs, but I had an UTI recently and I did test it showed that I had S. aureus, and D-mannose did help as I can feel obviously the symptoms was almost gone but could not be completely healed. Once I started to lower down the dose of D mannose the symptoms came back. Would you probably have any suggestions? Thank you very much!
I also told me doctor about D Mannose. I’m 68. He’s around the same age. He does not do current research and had never heard of it! I hope to switch soon.
Ok if my uti is not being helped by demanose because it’s not a 17:46 wasn’t working for a couple of weeks. now along with what I think is enough water? Maybe I need to drink more? and just lately I’ve included antibiotics into that mix because it appears that the demonose isn’t working? And I’m still getting up to pee every hour and half to four hours.(if I’m lucky) and even with the antibiotic which is nitrofurantoin mono-mcr 100mg once a day. I’ve been on it four days and nothing has changed. I’m hoping it will start to give me some relief in the next day or so? I’ve been to my doc did a urinalysis which I got back in two days and it said I had an infection. I really don’t like to take antibiotics so you know I’m not doing great that is way it made me give into start taking them:( I’m just not getting very much sleep. I’m not drinking alcohol or coffee, also I’ve heard a urinalysis should take about a week to get results back to know if you have UTI. Am I just being impatient? Thank for any help you can enlighten me on? Peace
Thank you for saying this because that thought crossed my mind and I have amalgam in my mouth that the ADA continues to say "is totally safe." I think I'm going to get them removed!
Hi Tori, thank you so much for these super helpful video. I was in the hospital once for 2 weeks because of UTI. And now after 6 months i just got it again. Im on antibiotic prescribed by doctor and is still super worried that it will come back after this treatment. I really hope that after this batch of antibiotic dmannose will help me with UTI. But i have a few questions regarding the usage of dmannose. 1. Does it affect if I use it while using: birth control pill or any other supplements? 2. Do we have to take this religiously for the rest of our life to prevent UTI? If yes, does it have any other side effect since this is a type of sugar? 3. Does it help with BV as well since i read there are some claims about it helps with BV and i’m having BV and is planning to use boric acid suppositories to cure it. Thank you so much again for such a useful video
I am so, so sorry to hear about you having to go to the hospital due to a UTI. I'm really glad that you caught this most recent one early, and that you're getting the appropriate treatment. I hope that d-mannose will help you after this round of antibiotics, too, but remember that d-mannose is only effective if the bacteria causing your infections is E. coli! As for your questions: 1. I cannot point to any literature, but I can share my personal experience. I've used d-mannose while on and off of hormonal birth control, and have not noticed any change in efficacy of my birth control or my natural fertility. 2. I've been taking it every day for 3-4 years now I think. I'm not sure if I'll be taking it for the rest of my life, but my alternative was taking antibiotics for the rest of my life, it seemed. As far as side-effects, I have not personally experienced any. But that doesn't mean they don't exist. Every person's body is different, and I know just from reading my comments that d-mannose has given other people headaches, or made them feel light-headed. 3. Fascinating! I haven't heard that it's helpful with BV, and I have not personally used it to treat/prevent BV. I am a big fan of boric acid suppositories, though! If you'd like to learn more about boric acid, you can check out this video: ruclips.net/video/uzfAgvGY7Z0/видео.html I'm so glad this video was helpful for you! I hope you find your healing, soon 💛
Some people can be insanely ignorant. UTI’s are not necessarily linked to hygiene. Chronic UTI’s are typically caused by a biofilm that tends to create a coating, making it hard to cure because the biofilm allows the bacteria causing the infection to hide, thus allowing for the infection to return. 😊
But how other people who got uti before don’t have biofilms and why only few people have this problem am dying with this infection I don’t find purpose to live
@@aishwaryareddy5805how are you doing now? Did you find a cure? You have to help you’re body eliminate the bacteria eat healthier. Blueberries juice twice a day/ or unsweetened cranberry juice/ make garlic teas or eat 3 cloves of garlic every day
Good day doctor i am suffering with a stricter problem at the age of 35 years old i try a lot of serge but none work i i have to live with a cater i have been using one since 2007 until now and it is going true my belly can not pass true the penins
I use it preventatively as well :) I answer all of these questions both in this video and in my FAQs blog post if you want to learn more about my current routine!
Hey... hope you see this. I remember asking you a question about D-Mannose. Is it safe to take D-Mannose and Antibiotic together? I been taking it for over a month now and just got a uti.
I'm so sorry about your infection, did you get it cultured? I can't give individualized medical advice, but I can share that I have safely taken both d-mannose and antibiotics together without issue. However, if you're at all concerned, I can only recommend you ask a physician or another healthcare provider you trust who knows you and your past medical history 💛 I wish I could be more helpful, and I hope you get to feeling better soon 🤗
What’s the difference with pill and powder? You can just open the pills and mix it with water so it absorbs quicker no? Shouldn’t D- Mannose all be the same with all brands?
Today is 2-17-2024. I am going to tell everyone the method I use for UTI. Not an E-Coli UTI. Just a regular UTI. I Hope this helps someone. Go to the grocery store and buy a bunch of fresh parsley. It is sold in “ bunches “. At home rinse the parsley off and put all of it…..stems and all…….into a blender filled with water. Grind it up. Then, pour the green water into a container and throw the ground up parsley remainder away. Keep in your refrigerator and 4 times a day……FOR ONE WEEK ( even if you start feeling fine, do not stop ) drink a cup of the parsley water. Drink it cold, hot, or put some sweetener in…….anything to help you tolerate it. This OUGHT to clear up the majority of UTI’s. It always has mine. Now, as a maintenance, do this maybe twice a year. Typically, I just gulp it down cold in a coffee type mug. Try it, and if you have success, you will learn to buy SEVERAL bunches of parsley at the time. Would REALLY REALLY appreciate hearing back from anyone on this. I started doing this around 40 years ago, and it worked UNTIL I got E-Coli and then I had to be treated. That one is a yucky experience !
Hey! I posted on your old video but i thought i'd put it here too since it's more relevant. I just wanted to ask whether you have ever had Hexamethylenetetramine or Methenamine? There's a medicine called Hiprex i buy at pharmacies without a prescription (Australia) that seems to help - just wanted to see if you had any experience with it? I'm now considering trying d-mannose instead as a more natural remedy since the longterm effects of Hiprex aren't clear. Thanks for much for the video - i suffer the exact symptoms and have found it to be very mentally debilitating and like something is wrong with my body - thanks for bringing all these people together who can understand one another!
Hi! I have heard of Hiprex but only through speaking with others who comment on my videos-I haven’t ever used it myself, unfortunately 😔 I so hear what you’re saying about feeling like something is wrong! I’ve absolutely felt that myself, but the wonderful news is that our brains are plastic! And if we can figure out how to prevent the infections, eventually we can collect enough positive experiences to rewire our brains not to fear certain activities ❤️ I really wish I could be more helpful! Don’t hesitate to reach with any other questions-wishing you health and safety during this uncertain time 🤗
@@PelvicEmpowerment I found these videos after getting a uti from hiprex after 2 years of not having one! Unsure why they didnt work this one time. I took antibiotics but now 1 week later im dealing with a mild flare up and just bought D-mannose - fingers crossed it works for me and I don't have to second round antibiotics! I was wondering have you had any uti's since taking the powder preventively? And how long did it take for you to get over the acute uti with the powder? Thanks so much again - doing my testing for this current uti so fingers crossed it works!
@@TheGaranceable Yes, fingers-crossed 🤞 I have had two UTIs since taking the powder preventatively -- but both of them happened in January of this year, in Asia, on my honeymoon, when I didn't pack enough d-mannose for the entirety of the trip! I essentially hadn't gotten a UTI in 2.5-3 years since using the powder, packed enough d-mannose for my life not in Asia for the length of the trip (3 months), realized I hadn't packed enough for life in Asia (very wet climate, a lot more exposure to "risky behaviors" there), and tried to half my doses to make the amount of powder I had brought last the whole time. Promptly got two UTIs in a row... so I do think if I had been taking d-mannose the "right" way for my body I would've prevented those. Otherwise, UTI-free since using the powder! As for your second question, my symptoms went away quickly (within a day), but I continued to use the powder through the lens of treating an infection for 5 days total 😊 Wishing you the best 💛
Hello to everyone. I also have uti for about 4 years. but my disease has been asymptomatic for a very long time. I don't have pain or other symptoms, but e coli bacteria are found every time in my urine test. Anyone else experiencing this situation? I'm waiting for your help.
I'm so sorry to learn that, even though you're asymptomatic (thank goodness!), your tests results show e. coli every time. That must be frustrating. I really hope that someone else who has had a similar experience finds your comment and can help you.

Thank you for watching 💕
There are two treatments to UTI aside from taking d-mannose,UVA-ursi, marshmallow rootfrequently(which it didn't cure my condition, it just maintains it)
1) high dose introvenous vitamin C(IVC 75grams at a 1gm/min infusion rate), I did that frequently more than recommended frequency, I did 3 days in a row with single day rests(3days, 1day rest, 3day, 1 day rest,...)
2) vaccines, I haven't tried this one yet, called FimCH, ExPEC4V
3)antibiotics are not a cure
Pelvic Empowerment hi Tory, just wanted to let you know I finally beat the dread chronic UTI I had for the last two years. Turns out I was resistant to macrobid, then tried cipro and did not do the trick either. So I started doing ginger and turmeric shots twice a day, plus the d-mannose, probiotics and enzymes to help me digest food as well. Aldo a clean diet as much as I could. It took a while but I did this religiously everyday up until a few days go. Still doing d-mannose once a day, probiotics and enzymes. Will give ginger shots a break for about to weeks and then start again.
Hi, I need help , I can't get rid of UTI doc said I gave alot of bacteria, and ecoli, I'm so tired of taking antibiotics, and I have been in ICU because I had ecoli, n I had to be on IV of Invanz for 8 days .I stay in pin in my pelvic area n my lower back ..plz help me
There is one more thing to consider that my doctor did help with. I got an ultrasound and had a small kidney stone that made the passage in my urethra very small. So I had a procedure where they zapped it and broke it into tiny pieces. That also helped a lot.
Do you take your second dose before or after the risky activity?
Cranberry, D-Mannose, hydration, Vit C, a strict sexual activity regimen, cotton underwear, methanamine, and a caring cooperative KNOWLEDGEABLE doctor who might consider genetic testing the strain of bacteria involved. Have FAITH, never give up, and SHARE.
What does strict sexual activity regimen imply?
@CherylEnderson that's what I want to know lol.
@@hmartin751 If I had to guess, no fingers, no oral, as a mouth can have germs, and fingers as well.
BTW I am a male and have no idea how I got my infection, never had a UTI in my life, then one day I am in sepsis, still battling the infection, antibiotics work fine, but as soon as I am off, it comes back done 3 cycles of Antibiotics, so not taking them again, using all the natural treatments I can, I seem to have it under control, but still have it.
D-mannose latest research says it does not have any benefit, that was in a double blind trial, I am still going to take it, i still think it has potential specially if you combine it with a extremely low carb diet.
Probably, Same as mine, Both pee & Shower before & after, leave some in your bladder, so it will flush your uter’s, after sex.
P.S.If you do any do any butt play, you both must clean up b4 entering the main 💜.. Brush teeth, clean everything! Definitely a Mood-buster, find you a good man! We are just Super Sensitive to Foreign germs! I told my BF, if he cheats my body will tell me. But I know it really is a nightmare!
Always Worried.
I’ve been dealing with chronic UTI’s for almost three years now. I can’t even count how many doctors visits, specialists ive seen and antibiotics I’ve been put on. Each time a UTI would occur, the feeling of depression and hopelessness would come over me. It caused me to miss work and lose my overall quality of life. After consistently taking D Mannose in pill form I was UTI free for about 7 months which was unheard of for me. Unfortunately I am experiencing a flare up right now and am so upset due to the success I was having. Seeing this video about the powder immediately had me purchase it online. This is the first video I’ve come across that I’ve truly identified with and mirrors what I’m going through. Thank you for bringing a little peace of mind to my day 😭
Your story hits so close to home! I, too, was UTI-free for a number of months while taking the d-mannose pills but managed to contract another UTI maybe 6 months in. Switching to the powder made the world of difference for me. I really hope that is the case for you, too 💛
I'm so glad this video was helpful! I wish you the absolute best and don't hesitate to reach out with any questions 🤗
I need advice how can I stop getting these. Its really affecting my mental health. I just seem to keep getting antibiotics through at me.. which is not the solution.
@@PelvicEmpowerment How long have you been uti free now,?
@@nanaa428 Other than the two UTIs I contracted back to back on my honeymoon in the beginning of 2020 (totally my fault, I didn't take my d-mannose like I should've), I haven't gotten any since making this update video!
@@PelvicEmpowerment that's great to hear! my little sister has had chronic utis since the beginning of 2020 and nothing has worked so far for her. Ill purchase some d mannos for her, fingers crossed
I found another video from a Functional Med Dr and he said to take 1 tsp D Mannose for an acute infection every 2 hrs the first day, every 3 hrs the second day, and every 4 hrs the third day. I tried it after not having a uti for 25 years and just recently got one and it worked super well. I figured out that eating a low carb diet and intermittent fasting helped immensely as well as sugar and carbs are NOT my friend! Thank you Tori for all the info.
Hi Tori, I know I've told you this before....but you saved my life with D-Mannose. Just wanted to thank you again. I was in a world of hurt until my DMannose arrived by Amazon. I don't say this lightly Tori. I am a cancer survivor, SLE disabled me 20 yrs ago and lifelong Crohn's, lifelong! So at 60 I've lived on steroids more than not. My bladder irregular shape doesn't drain completetly and I get a UTI everytime I catheterize....ugh I QUIT doing that and drink more water and take DMannose daily. I would rather die than self-catheterize so THANK YOU. I was going out of my mind iving on antibiotics and having it raise hell with my Crohn's..... You are an angel. Keep doing what you're doing please. God Bless You!
Aww, thank you so, so much for the kind words. I am so glad you are feeling better, and I am so honored to have played a part in your healing journey 💕 wishing you only the best -- now and always!
Be sure to use 100% cranberry with no sugar added. You can also add a Tbsp. Of apple cider vinegar with a mother because it is a powerful antimicrobial to fight fungus and bacterial infections. Refrain from bathing and shower instead. Avoid baths because it can be an irritant due to the soap in the bath water. Just wash the area with plain water.
It worked! Cleared my uti the second day of using D-Mannose 😁👍
Yayyy! So glad you’re feeling better 💕
How many pills did you take a day?
Did you take the pills or the powder?
@@cenyettasmith2332 I took pills
@@ycnangzhow many pills? Do rid it
Legit sitting on the toilet with another UTI (from Australia lol). I think I’m up to about 8 this year! Just been on antibiotics which didn’t help but finding your videos I have now ordered D-Manosse. Thankyou x
Ugh, I can so relate to this feeling. 8 UTIs in a year is just about where I used to average. D-mannose genuinely changed my life, but do know that it only works if the bug responsible for your infections is E. coli.
Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, and I wish you nothing but the best ❤
Hi has your condition improved? Having utis is really affecting me, its been going on for years with no proper solution. Do you have any advice x
What kind of symptoms did you have
Me right now 😫
I woke up with blood in my urine and severe cramps when urinating. I didn’t want to go to the doctor and get an antibiotic. I decided to try natural remedies. I started to guzzle water with vinegar immediately and made myself a tea with fresh mint , yarrow, honey and rose hips - all from my garden except the honey. My cramps and the bleeding were gone that afternoon. Nancy Stewart
Wow! I love hearing how powerful natural remedies can be, so glad you were able to heal your cramps/bleeding and are feeling better ❤️
I feel like crying I just can't believe that finally found a something that really works, I have spent a lot of money, seeing different doctors who only prescribed antibiotics, you all this d'mannose is a miracle, I'm so grateful I thought I was gonna suffer for the rest of my life from this uti, you all I AM UTI FREE D'mannose is only product that helped me, I can now swim, have sex without worrying about having an uti the following day.
Ahh, I could cry with you! D-mannose changed my life in the exact same way it changed yours, and it continues to be a part of my daily routine for those reasons. I'm so glad that it's working for you the way it works for me! There's nothing like freedom and peace in your body, and I'm so glad d-mannose helps you feel free and peaceful!
Wish I can like this post 100 times
On Tuesday I did a urine test and was positive for a UTI. I watched this video and started the regimen you recommended. I did another urine test on Wednesday and it was negative!!!! My symptoms slowly subsided throughout the day on Tuesday. I’m keeping up the schedule for the next few days to ensure it’s completely gone. I’m so grateful for this knowledge. I was skeptical but it worked for me!! THANK YOU!!!!!!
I am so, so happy to hear that you've had some good positive indicators of success with d-mannose! It really has changed my life. I hope that you are able to fully clear your UTI -- don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, and best of luck ❤
Pelvic Empowerment -Other than the clear urine test is there any other way to tell if it’s completely gone?
@@amyphillips367 In the past I've always used a clear urine test and no symptoms as an indication that the infection has cleared!
Plenty nine01 can you purchase the test or is it from a doctor?
@@caseG80 It is from a doctor -- it is called a "urine culture" 💕
I know this is a four year old video. But you have really helped me and my sister. Thank you so much.
My mom is taking this ( i found this by accident , D mannose) and she has not had any problem since !!! it's amazing , she was suffering with those infections and got so fustrated and stressed, it works very well , Thank God , and thank you
pill or powder?
Thanks for pointing me to this video, I just subscribed to your channel. I’ve been getting UTIs very frequently, and it definitely is a hard subject to talk about sometimes. It is really refreshing to have more women being open about these things. It is so very helpful, and needs to be talked about a lot more. I bought some D-Mannose after watching your video, and I am already feeling mentally and physically better.
It can be so hard to talk about! When it was happening to me, it really affected my self-esteem and my ability to feel completely in the moment during sex because I was always, in the back of my mind, worried about an infection.
I am SO glad to hear that you are feeling mentally and physically better 🤗 I am hopeful that d-mannose can do for you what it has done for me!
And thank you so much for subscribing. This channel is a passion project, and your support means the world 💕
Hi do you already get rid of UTI?
I'm so happy I'm not the only one with this problem!! Thank you SO much for sharing! You've helped me immensely!
Aww, you are so welcome! I am so glad you are feeling less alone and have a sense of direction moving forward, that's wonderful news ❤️
Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! Wishing you only the best 😊
Great video! i remember asking you so many questions two years ago, for my wife, who was suffering from uti's. She used D-Mannose, like you had suggested and her infection's finally stopped. It took several months, if I remember correctly, for it to finally work, but it did. She has not had an infection for two years, or the last time I had written to you. She has a bottle of D-Mannose in the refrigerator, just in case, an infection occurs. You are a natural for this! Great delivery and it's easy on the ears. I see now that you are married. In the last video, two years ago, you were talking about waiting outside your boyfriends house, because he was sleeping. You did the video in your car, which was impromptu, but of good quality. I think you have a promising future doing this kind of education for men and women. I believe we will be seeing much of you in years to come! Good luck, and much Mahalo. Aloha, from Kaneohe, Hawaii.
Dennis!! I remember you and your wife! I am so, so, so happy to hear that her infections have finally stopped. I know just how challenging chronic infections can be to navigate -- I'm ecstatic you are both on the other side of it ❤ thank you for the kind words about my delivery and my voice. Seriously, this channel is a passion project for me. Your gentle encouragement goes such a long way.
We are engaged! We're getting married in October of this year :) I remember the video you're talking about! Haha, he was asleep in the apartment for a night shift while I was filming in my car.
Thank you for the luck!
Much Mahalo to you as well. Aloha ❤
@@PelvicEmpowerment I remember your video two years ago. It was good, but your delivery is even better now! You are a very good speaker. It is a nice smooth manner "easy on the ears"...there's a rhythm to your words, almost melodic. You also come across, as an honest,believable person. I think you would well in the field of communications. Good luck, with your wedding, by the way, where are you folks getting married?
@@hawaiidoves Aww, thank you so, so much -- genuinely, it means a lot to me!

@@PelvicEmpowerment yes, that's us. She has other issues now, but as far as uti's, that's not a problem. Keep on making those useful videos. You do a good job speaking, and you come across as a honest person. Much Mahalo, and aloha!
@@hawaiidoves I remember you both 💕 I'm so sorry to learn that your wife is navigating other issues, but I am ecstatic that she at least doesn't have bladder infections to worry about.
And thank you so, so much for your kind words and gentle encouragement to continue making videos. This year has been so challenging, and it's been very difficult to continue creating/to feel creative. Encouragements like yours really motivate me to keep going, so thank you, sincerely 🤗
Almost in tears watching this. So nice to hear some hope from someone who knows exactly how I feel. 😭😭 I have been seeing a urologist with no help. I have been dealing with UTIs so long I am now antibiotic resistant to three different antibiotics. I’m terrified to have sex. 😭
I’m going to try ALL your recommendations.
Thank you so much!! ❤️❤️
Oh my goodness, I am so, SO sorry to learn about your struggle with chronic UTIs & your COMPLETELY VALID resulting fear of sex.
When I was navigating chronic UTIs, it was oral sex that I was absolutely terrified of. The beautiful thing about your brain is that it is plastic -- its ideas and thoughts surrounding certain activities can change. It took a while, but after collecting positive experiences around oral sex again and again, my brain's interpretation of the activity changed, and I'm SO confident that yours can too 💛
I really hope d-mannose can do for you what it has done for me. I wish you the absolute best on your healing journey.
Rooting for you dear
How are you now
any cure??
Wonderful video (as well as the Gerd one)! I found a company called Uqora started by a woman who got frequent UTI’s and her husband. I follow their protocol which includes DMannose in water every 3 days and some capsules with other things. I did get another so I switched to using their powder every morning and it stopped. Got one more recently so going to use my MicroIngredients D Mannose in a glass of water at night as well, 3/4 tsp as you do. Also I drink something like 8 glasses of water a day. Water is important. Thanks Tori for helping so many women!!!
Since childhood I was prone to uti's both kidney and bladder. I had a pelvic kidney. Often they are unproblematic and people go their entire lives not knowing they have them. Mine was positioned upside down though which kinked my ureter. It was recently removed and ive had success with using dmannose if I experience any symptoms but otherwise have been UTI free. Found your video and am glad to know about the powder to add to my tool kit. Thank you!
As I commented on her older video, GIRLS ! D Mannose saved my life! I take one-two pills every time after sex or anything “risky” and I haven’t gotten one since.. if you feel a uti coming on drink TONS of water, bathe in apple cider with warm water, & started your d mannose pill, hope This helps cus it helped me, xoxo !
🤗💕💛
you have no idea how much this video honest to god gave me hope. i’m so excited to try your ideas. i was getting hopeless for a while there. thanks so much ❤️✨
I am so happy to hear that! D-mannose really did change my life. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, and I wish you only the best 🤗💖
You are absolutely the nicest person !!!!
Thank You so much!! I took the time on your 1st video to write things brown to ask my Urologist!! I had a mess bladder left done in 2021 and I have had 9 UTI!! I am on D-Mannose and hopefully we will see some good!!
Hi Tori, Thank you for this video. I have a uti and feel awful. Listening to you has given me renewed hope that I can get well. I have done much research and have tried many products. They help somewhat, but not totally. I am looking forward to trying the Kal powder and praying that it will be my answer as well. Many blessings to you for caring about others with this problem.
Ugh, I am so sorry to hear it. I know how awful a UTI feels.
Remember that d-mannose is only effective if the bug causing your UTI is E. coli! Otherwise, d-mannose won't be helpful.
It really has changed my life! Let me know if you have any questions, and I wish you only the best. Cheers to feeling better soon ❤
In the last 4 months, I've been taking more than 7 rounds of antibiotics due to UTI. And it messed my gut microbiome, I often had constipation in some days, food allergies, etc. What I noticed was that my UTI always comes back when I consume high oxalates food, even though I took d-Mannose, oregano oil... And when I had an USG, even though it showed that I didn't have kidney stones, doctor found that I had a lot of crystals in my bladder. I thought the UTI and crystals was not related but it turns out that it was.
One of the comment in this video mentioned a book titled "Toxic Superfoods" by Sally K. Norton and it's really eye-opening. I will change my diet starting from tomorrow ro low oxalate diet and I hope that this UTI will not come back anymore.
Did the antibiotics cure even after 7 rounds?
Getting this powder as soon as my Walgreens or CVS opens. I hope they have it because I don't have time to order it. NEED NOW! Thank you so much for your video.💜
I hope you're able to find it at a local pharmacy, I've only ever been able to find it online! Wishing you the best, so glad this was helpful for you 💕
I found the powder works much better than capsules as well.
🙌
Pelvic Empowerment Hey I want to know how you take d-mannose and what brand you prefer ? thank you
Please watch the video or check out the FAQs page linked in the video’s description, everything you’ve asked is outlined in detail in both resources ❤️
I had a UTI since May 2024. Usually I had a few bladder infections a year (3-5), but none of them were as bad as this was. I had to try 4 different antibiotics, the last one I had to take preventatively for 3 months. I had a new partner since March, but the problems only started in May, as I mentioned before. I thought about anything that could have caused this, and the worst idea is that it is because of my new partner. We quickly became a couple in June, and even didn‘t have Sex for a whole month because it just hurt so much. My pee was bloody and my lower stomach would cramp up so much I coulnd‘t even stand up. This time was the worst of my whole life. Apparently the third antibiotic worked but my doctor still advised me to take the 3-month antibiotic to prevent further UTIs.
I was so scared that it was my boyfriend, as my doctor said it is 100% his fault. He even told me to get back on the pill. I didn‘t know what to do, because everyone on the Internet was also saying it was my boyfriend and that he‘s not the right one for me as my body is „showing me“ by the UTIs that he is not good for me.
Since watching the video I have a good feeling about everything, I even cried because you talked about your fiancé and how he is not the reason for your UTIs.
I‘m taking probiotics and the „Now“ D-Mannose. The UTI is gone but I still have a tingling sensation whenever I pee. It‘s not the feeling of a bladder infection but rather my bladder kind of stinging, if that makes sense. This has been going on since forever and I‘m really clueless. I haven‘t had Sex for 6 months, as I‘m doing my semester abroad now and soon, my partner and I will meet again and obviously it will come to Sex more often. Which is why I‘m scared that the bladder infection will come back.
I really don‘t know what to do and I‘m kind of hopeless.
If you read until this part, thank you so much for listening to my story and I‘m accepting any kind of advice!
Hi, fellow Physio (in Training) here :) I have also suffered from chronic UTIs for the past 15 years. My hypothesis is that I used to get so many antibiotics when I was a kid and even also as an adult. I think my microbioma is not ideal. Also I think biofilm has got something to do with it. It often feels like it is something systemic, I also get UTIs easier when I drink white wine and/or beer, for example. The hypothesis about anatomy sounds plausible, but tbh 1 or 2 cm don't really make a big difference is what I think. I think it is more important what kinds of bacteria etc. are being transportet from the back to the front. Also, the lymphatic system kind of connects colon, vagina and urethra. For me personally, I still get UTIs even if I take a shower after sex, and tbh I have never not wiped from the front to the back. Still, I get UTIs. In my case I really believe it is a systemic thing and something with the microbioma is off.You also mentioned that you had to use probiotics and in your other video you said, that is a whole different story - I wonder why? I mean these things are so closely connected. I am going to do a colon cleanse again, as last time I didn't have UTIs for a few months after. Thank you for making these videos, it really helps to know that others also have the same problem.
What cleanse did you do?
When in acute phase it's very important to stay completelt off sugary, starchy food in addition to taking D-Mannose
I am sure this can be true for some people, thank you for sharing your experience 💛
I am very grateful for your video!! I have had uti's for five years and I am so tired of antibiotics, I feel that they're no longer an effective solution. I already asked for Kal D-Mannose and I hope it will help me just like it did for you.
I so hear you. Are your UTIs usually caused by E. coli? If so, I have high hopes that d-mannose will be as effective for you as it is for me -- it has improved my quality of life so much!
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out! Wishing you nothing but the best ❤️
It's always caused by E. Coli :( I'm already drinking Kal D mannose, I hope it helps me. Thank you very much for your concern 🥰 If I have some news I'll tell you 😊
@@chagrinsloigne Has it worked for you? Just wondering becuase it's been a month since you commented and I'm wondering if it has worked for you. I have chronic UTI's and I'm desperate for opinions and results for the Dmannose supplement.
Hi there and thank you so much for this. I have had multiple UTIs over the past ten years. No offence please but Dr.Rena Malik is a urologist and says on her website: "there is nothing wrong with your personal hygiene so stop 'freaking out". She appears to be truthful in her opinion. with a huge following of 1.7 million followers. And yes we are all different. Your comments please.
Thank you so much for all this research and information-of course my Dr. didn't give me any of this information. At 81 I've not been bothered with uti - that I know of. But now I am, but don't have any symptoms. I shall definitely try your suggestion. Thanks
Tori, U r just AMAZING! Ur gratitude & positivity are infectious! I am so grateful 2 u for ur willingness to share & help us women 2 understand/help heal & be aware of our bodies. U truly help us reach 'BODY LITERACY', a term I came upon in feminist/female anatomy literature, that I truly believe we need, as women, in order 4 us to have heightened awareness/control of our bodies & optimal health, both gynecologically & systemically, but really, they are both ARE interconnected. SINCERE THANKS! PS I am a woman despite my screen name. : - )
Wow, thank you so, so much for the kind words! I like the idea of "body literacy," and it is an honor to be helping women become more body literate 💕
I remember you shared that you are a woman despite your screen name in a previous comment! I hope you are well, and a sincere thanks to you for watching, commenting, and being here 🤗
I've been struggling with chronic UTI's for 20 years now and I think I've tried everything including D-mannose .The problem with the recurrent UTI is the biofilm that the bacteria is forming into the bladder and this is how the bacteria protects itself and becomes antibiotic resistant.I managed to put this under control for 4 years using oregano oil( which is natural antibiotic). In order to destroy the biofilm I would suggest using some natural biofilm destroyers such as garlic, turmeric, tea tree oil etc along with taking oregano oil and D mannose. Since I'm not a doctor please consult your urologists before taking any further actions.Good luck everyone!
Thank you so, so much for sharing your experience. I appreciate it not only because it may help someone scrolling through the comments, but also because it can help me in passing information along to others who need more than d-mannose.
I am SO glad that, after 20 years, you've been able to figure out how to heal your body. What an experience, and what a triumph.
Thank you again for this comment. I wish you nothing but the best 🤗
@@PelvicEmpowerment Thank you for being so helpful Tori and thank you for sharing your experience that might help many people who are desperately looking for alternative solution. I really admire your initiative and I also hope that my experience will help too. I’m open for any further consultation if needed. Stay safe and UTI’s free :)
Aleksandra Veljanoska ok
I had the same problem as you, so I found by chance Solary yeast _cleanse ( I think because it has got garlic, might help with killing the bacteria. + D- Mannose….
At the same time, if I had any itching I would take : Urological Tea for Urinary Tract Problems - Kidneys & Bladder (20 Tea Bags 40g), I think this tea is from Slovenia, but I got it from Amazon, works within hours to stop itching… 👀…
D-mannose and solary, I took it consistently for 3 months to see results… I’ve been clear for about 7 months… Can’t believe it….
I'm too feeling better after using origano oil.. Mam can i use it for 6 months regularly
I’m very happy to see you talking about D-mannose. No one talks about it! I take D-mannose everyday and today I’m having my first UTI since 5 months. I took an antibiotic because I’m not very good at managing the pain, but honestly the progress are very good! I would like to be able to not use any antibiotic even when I’m experiencing one just like you, do you have any tricks to manage the pain? Sorry for my english I speak french😇
Your English is wonderful!
And I am SO happy to hear that d-mannose has been such a helpful tool for you, it really did change my life.
A few things to share:
1. I highly recommend the d-mannose powder over the pills, not only for trying to treat an acute UTI, but also for preventative doses
2. I do think it is possible to cure an acute UTI (if it caused by E. coli) with d-mannose, so long as you catch it early!
3. As far as pain management goes, I really like pyridium -- it is over the counter, and it numbs the bladder (but it will make you urinate bright orange!). I've used pyridium to manage the pain while treating an acute UTI with d-mannose!
Let me know if you have any other questions and I wish you only the best 💕
Very similar history to yours, for the past 10 years I’ve gotten 8-10 UTIs a year. Just cured my first acute UTI with d-mannose!!! Thank you for all this amazing information, I’m so hoping my new preventive regime continues to work.
Pill or powder?
@@ShadowRap-y5lpill, honestly I know I’ll miss doses if I use powder daily. I’ve been taking it daily since watching this video and have had a significant decrease in my symptoms with no major UTI or need for Azo or antibiotics.
@@tiffaniarmstrong4888 antibiotics didn’t really work after awhile so I’m trying out the pills. What were your uti symptoms ?
@@ShadowRap-y5l if antibiotics are not working, you need a urine culture to determine what your bacteria is susceptible to. I’ve had chronic UTIs since I was 16, getting 5+ a year. Now I can tell when one is coming on from a very slight irritation/uncomfortable feeling after urinating. When I feel that I take extra d-mannose on top of my regular preventative dose. So far have been able to keep that at bay.
@@tiffaniarmstrong4888 Is it ok to still have intercourse even while taking D mannose? So far the urintation has stopped. But I randomly get ants biting feeling around my body. Not sure why
Hi! I really love your videos and have watched pretty much all of them to help my search in figuring out how to help/prevent symptoms of a UTI. I was hoping you could make a video about the possible causes of symptoms of a UTI without the actual infection! I have been struggling with this for months and months and would love to hear your thoughts on the possible causes of symptoms of a UTI without the presence of infection/bacteria. :) I would LOVE to see a video like that!! 😊❤️
I hate hearing that you've been navigating UTI-like symptoms for months without having an active infection. I really hope that you are able to find peace in your body and remain kind to yourself during this time.
Thank you so much for the request -- I just added it to my list and would love to make that video!
Until then, have you ruled in/out your pelvic floor? If you think of your pelvic floor like any other muscle, you can imagine that when there is a threat, it tightens up. Kind of like if you were going to be punched in the stomach -- your abdomen might tighten to protect you. The same is true of your pelvic floor when you have a bladder infection, the bladder lives right on top of the pelvic floor and it will sometimes tighten up to protect you.
When someone has chronic infections, sometimes the pelvic floor will forget to let go even after an infection has resolved and it can FEEL like a UTI. I've treated a number of women for this exact presentation in clinic!

U just don’t understand how much this video means to me. I have Extremely chronic UTI’s for so long & it all began when I 1st had sex. I’m still with my same partner but it was so difficult. I then got Small Intestinal Bacteria overgrowth from the over use of antibiotics for my utis. I’ve been so depressed. It’s just been so hard. Nobody really understands, but I will definitely be taking this powder to stop these uti’s and eventually heal my sibo as well. Thank you for this. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I am so sorry to hear that you've been suffering, but I really hope this technique can alleviate the chronicity of your UTIs. Don't forget that d-mannose is only effective if the bug causing your UTIs is E. coli! I take it after sex every time, and I also try my best to urinate after sex. I really hope d-mannose helps you in the way it has helped me.
SIBO is something that I am still learning about -- I have had multiple requests to make videos covering different topics related to SIBO and very much intend to create that content. I hope that you are able to get back to feeling like yourself soon. Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, and I wish you nothing but the best 💕
Thank you. I appreciate u so much. I’m almost positive this all started with e coli. I will definitely give this a try. I definitely subscribed because Your videos are SO GREAT! I struggle with sever constipation because of this Horrible sibo & chronic uti’s. All those antibiotics really killed both good and bad bacteria in me. I am trying so hard to get rid of all this.
hi, for how Long have you had the utis for?

@@jbugarin94 that sucks... I thought I was loosing my mind when mine also became chronic and no freaking doctors were able to help..
Im currently taking juniper and bidens tintures and D-manose...
for the sibo i took pau d arco tea and coloidal silver. I also added to my regimen vitamin c liposomal...
sounds like a lot, but D-manose alone did not work for me...
I respect your honesty. Thank you.

Wow this might actually change my life, been getting UTI's since I was 16 and in the last year or so at least every month. Had resigned myself to knocking back antibiotics after sex and using them to self treat too, but now I think my immune system is knackered; I only need to go out on errands for a few hours and I get sick with something (often more cystitis, yay) and it just really wears away at you when pretty much any fun activity carries a high likelihood of making your life miserable tomorrow. Thank you so much for sharing!
(and shout out to Dr Gregor on youtube for mentioning d mannose and it's actual effectiveness - I assumed it was just cranberry pills all over again).
Holly, I am so, so sorry to hear about you getting chronic UTIs since you were 16. I can relate to that so personally, and I know how frustrating it can be, and how easily it can seep into self-confidence, relationships, and the ability to be present.
I really hope that you find relief with D-mannose. It really did change my life. Just remember that it only works if the bug causing your UTIs is E. coli!
Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions, and I wish you only the best 💕
Hey! I really have urinary tract infections and am already in despair .. What helped you in the end?
Where do you get the information that D-mannose ONLY works on E coli? What is your SOURCE? What about other infections caused by KLEBSIELLA, which also is a common bowel organism? BTW, I am diabetic and I closely monitor my BS with a CGM. D-mannose does NOT spike my BS.
been to the doctor 3 times and I still have gotten them every month for at least 5 months. I as well am always clean w my partner I've been with for 1yr and a few. Im currently in pain like crazy, can't sleep, back pain, stomach pain, burning, all the works lol. I'm about to visit the pharmacy tomorrow after a doctor visit and I'm going to ask them about this for myself, still getting them regardless lol!
Ugh, I am so, so sorry you're experiencing chronic UTIs and all of the pain you've described. I know that feeling of defeat and exhaustion and frustration so well.
Have you gotten any of these infections cultured? If it is E. coli causing your infections, I am very hopeful that d-mannose can help you the way it has helped me. I am still UTI-free to this day 💕
I hope d-mannose is the right tool for you, and I hope that you find relief soon! Please don't hesitate to ask any questions, and I wish you a speedy recovery and only the best 🤗
Man o man I hope your better. You are the only other one who has back pain in list of symptoms. I've been worried about that part but they did bloodwork amd kidney function is fine. Idk for sure how long I had before starting d mannose. I think maybe 3 or 4 days so hopefully it helps my acute uti. My UA bateria was 4+ and wbc 6-10 idk compared to others how bad that even is. Stressful. But any how hope and prayers to you that you no longer suffer with these
Thank you for this video and information . Your story has been my story. E. coli UTI’s every time I had an infection, can tell one is starting immediately just by change in urine odor (before not feeling good) and i’ve been using D mannose in pill form prophylactically. The only difference is I’ve been trying to treat with pill form of d mannose so will try the powder. Thank you! I appreciate your information.
Oh wow you helped me a whole bunch before and then you helped me a ton more with things that I didn't even think about asking, haha. Thank you again! (:
You are so welcome ❤ I am so happy the videos have been helpful for you!
So helpful. much appreciated. You are just adorable. Love the explanations. I'm optimistic can turn this around
You're so kind, thank you so much for your comment 🤗
And yes! If your UTIs are caused by E. coli, I'm very hopeful you can turn your experience around, too 💛
Just wanted to update my last comment - D-Mannose powder started working within 5 hours of taking first dose (for an active UTI caught early stages) like mentioned in the video! I haven't had to take any antibiotics yay! Brings me peace of mind big time.
Would still like to know whether you or anyone has had the powder fail as preventative measure? And if so for any thoughts to why it failed? My Hiprex prevention seemed to fail on me after 2 years of no UTI, unless i for some reason increased 'risky behaviour' or didnt have enough. Hopefully this is superior
Woohoo feeling SO much better within a good timeframe too! Can't believe no doctor out of all the ones i have seen never mentioned it.
Yay! I am SO glad it is working for you, and I'm so happy that you're feeling hopeful 💛
D-mannose has not failed me yet, but that doesn't mean it hasn't failed for others. Hopefully others will see this comment and be able to add their experiences!
Hi, can I ask what is hiprex, us it a antibiotic x
@@shauhwydhevs in Australia it's an anti-bacterial medicine you can buy without a prescription at the pharmacy, not an antibiotic. But i think in some other countries it's slightly different and is an antibiotic. Worth asking your local pharmacy! I used that before finding d-mannose and it worked, is a bit cheaper but isn't as natural
Thank you for making this video! Love the outro music 💖
Thanks! Hehe, I like it too! One of these days I'll have an intro :)
Thank you again, you pretty much covered everything I was thinking about doing the antibiotics and then the d-mannose. Not sure if it’s E. coli this time, but it has been in the past pretty much every time. Waiting on my urine culture results.
Awesome video thank you
You are so, so welcome!
I have found that if I don't catch the UTI early, the d-mannose powder helps with the symptoms but doesn't knock out the infection. Whereas, if I catch the UTI early (that first "off" pee), I can knock out the infection with the d-mannose!
I hope the powder works for you 💕 again, don't hesitate to ask any questions!
@@PelvicEmpowerment hi there, could you help me please ? This is the issue I am having. I started taking d mannose a few days late when I realised I had a UTI... should I just carry on taking it or do I need antibiotics?
@@allthingsjana7870 I am honored that you're comfortable asking me for guidance; however, I cannot give individualized medical advice. If you're at all concerned and feel you may have started taking the d-mannose "too late," I can only encourage you to check-in with a provider you trust to see if it may be time to start taking antibiotics! I've had experiences where I caught the UTI early enough and was able to treat it with d-mannose, and experiences where I caught the infection "too late" and, while the d-mannose did decrease my symptoms, I ended up needing antibiotics in order to clear it fully. I wish I could be more helpful, and I hope that you get to feeling better soon ❤️
I'll tell everyone about you *MR OBALAR* coming across your RUclips channel was a blessing, I'm free from hpv, victory at last
You’re fantastic Tori! 😃
Aww, thank you ❤️💕
Great info! Thank you. You’re voice is very pleasant to listen to. I would definitely listen to you narrate a book 😊
I’m so glad this video was helpful to you, and thank you so much for the kind words about my voice! That’s so sweet of you to say 💕
I just want to thank you so much for all of the info you’ve provided regarding UTIs. I refer to your videos often since I also suffer from recurrent UTIs & I have my D-mannose as you’ve recommended :) I was wondering if you experienced any negative side effects (leaky gut, arthritis, etc) from all of the antibiotics you previously used to cure the UTIs & what you did to overcome them. Thank you so much again ❤️
You are so welcome! I am so glad that the videos are helpful for you -- I hope d-mannose is doing for you what it has done for me ❤️
Excellent question. Interestingly, I did not have any health issues related to the high intake of antibiotics I used to take that I'm aware of (thank goodness!).
I did, however, have a longstanding upper GI issue (acid reflex/GERD) due to my hormonal birth control. I have a couple of videos that may be helpful in that realm:
- Birth Control & Gut Health: ruclips.net/video/Dr2i27aCSTU/видео.html
- How I Cured GERD: ruclips.net/video/CE2_N7EBX7k/видео.html
Let me know if you have any other questions! Wishing you health and safety during this uncertain time 🤗
Pelvic Empowerment
Thank you! And yup I totally love the D-mannose. I need to be more consistent with it though, but otherwise I’m so happy I discovered it through your channel. Thanks for the info :)
I had several back to back UTI's for over a year. Prior to that I had been suffering for a long time with "almost" UTI's--testing showed no bacteria present. I finally went to a Functional Med Dr and she had me take a very expensive urine culture ($275) every time I got one to identify the exact bacteria. Each time I was put on a different antibiotic. The result was that my gut got totally destroyed even though I was taking probiotics. Interesting that a very expensive Dr who's supposed to be knowledgeable in natural healing didn't recommend this.
I found out just like this gal did that D Mannose was the answer, but I must EMPHASIZE that I clearly wasn't drinking enough water, so I increased my intake exponentially. I thought I was drinking enough- about 8 10oz glasses, but in reality I wasn't. I'm now drinking 10-11 10 oz glasses a day (very intentially) and when I get UTI symptoms it's usually bc I've slacked off on drinking enough. I recently got another one and I'm back on the D Mannose along with an herbal tincture. Once this one clears up I'm going to do the maintenance that is recommended in this very good video.
I suggest you if you may to wear a period reusable pants or underwear all the time, so they can absorb any sweat, specially in the gym or while you doing alike activities
Goodday I have been an outpatient at the hospital for 2 years taking all kinds of medication nd went for ultra sound nothing has helped am depressed

Sadly, I think my oversized derrière is what’s causing my chronic UTIs. 😓
Thanks so much for shining light and educating!!
Of course! I hope d-mannose can do for you what it has done for me 💕 wishing you only the best!
Hi!!! Im so glad I found your videos and I bought this and so excited to try! A quick question, as a preventative, do you take it before sex as well? Or just in the morning and right after sex?
I'm excited for you, too! Excellent question. I alway take it once in the morning no matter what and after sex (and after other "risky" behaviors), but I think you could take it before sex/risky behaviors and still have a good preventative outcome 🤗
I would like to give my experience with uti's, now first of all I am a guy, so uti's or less frequent, in some respects more serious with guys... I had issues with very small kidney stones which I suspect led to my uti, in which I discovered at my local Hospital after I was having trouble urinating and was promptly given antibiotics... By the third day after every dose I felt like I was going to pass out, went back to the hospital and they said it was all "in my head". I knew there had to be another way and I discovered D-Mannose. But I take the pills instead for a couple of reasons, one I find that if I am not careful how I store the powder it will get hard and un-useable, two- it makes it easier for me to dose out, I break open 3 capsules (1.5 grams) and pour it into at least 8 ounces of water, once a day, seems to work well for me... By the way I use the Now Brand...Men sometimes has to deal with this too...
I've found that D-mannose may be helping to prevent UTIs for me, however I quickly discovered that once I already had a UTI, the only thing that cured it was the antibiotics. I tried to follow recommended doses of d mannose but was still miserable! I also tried the pills though so maybe next time I'll try out the powder.
I’ve found the powder to be much more effective than the pills, but I can only cure an acute UTI with dmannose powder if I catch the infection very early. Wishing you the best ❤️
You need to make sure you're also following a no carb diet for at least a few weeks along with taking d mannose
I needed B12 injections to finally stop the low immunity. Also stopped other infections upper respiratory/ herpes lips and being very tired. But another suggestion is going to/ or get in contact with Eliava Phage Therapy in Georgia to get bacteriofages at the Eliava institute. They help people who have resistant bacteria. It's a brilliant way to help the resistant bacteria.
thank you thank you for these videos so informative and gives me hope!!
You're so welcome! I am so glad you are feeling hopeful -- I am still UTI free, today 💕
Please don't hesitate to ask any questions, and I wish you nothing but the best!
You're incredible! Thank you so much for everything! :-) Wishing you the best
-Yuki
You're so welcome ❤️
I bought the pill form so can I just mix the powder from the pill in a drink or do I have to swallow the pill. Also, does d mannose help yeast infections too
I'll tell everyone about you *MR OBALAR* coming across your RUclips channel was a blessing, I'm free from hpv, victory at last..❤
You are a savior thank you for this
You're so welcome ❤
Pelvic Empowerment , I get my tests results back to see what is hopefully up with these supposed utis and then I’m starting these!! I hope they work for me!
I hope they do, too!
Awesome video!!! Love it! If you were to go on a mini getaway for 3 days or so and you know that you will be doing the beach/running/risky behavior type of things all day..would you suggest taking the maximum amount of servings in powder form which would be 2 servings each day or would you suggest more? Do you have to space out when you take the servings? For example: wake up take a serving, go to beach, then maybe go hiking and maybe go dancing later. So all day would be considered risky stuff when you’re away!
When I partake in all-day risky behavior, I usually take the d-mannose after each activity is over. So I would wake up, take my morning dose, go to the beach/hang out in my bikini, take a second dose, and then go hiking/exercise, take a third dose, and then go dancing in tight clothing and probably take a fourth dose after that. That being said, I'm not sensitive to d-mannose, and I don't often take more than two doses/day, so having a couple of days here and there that are outside of my typical routine doesn't worry me.
That being said, I can't give individualized medical advice! If you aren't sure how much you should be taking and are not comfortable running a sort of trial-and-error experiment with yourself, I can only recommend seeking input from a healthcare provider you trust ❤️
Enjoy your mini-vacation 🤗
Pelvic Empowerment this was very helpful. Thank you so much for you reply! I will have to experiment and see what works for me. So far, haven’t had any issues taking three of the Now brand d-mannose 500mg pills after each activity. I really appreciate all your help..thank god for you and your videos!!! Keep being an amazing human! :)
I had my first UTI at 78.
I had flank pain -- very scary.
Is that normal?
They put me in the hospital but I never saw a doctor or nurse.
Then suddenly they kept telling me l needed to be discharged.
Were they just using me to fill a room until someone else needed it more ?
Could some of you please advise me regarding chronic UTIs not caused by e. coli but by many different kinds of other germs/bacteria? When stressed I get many UTIs (6 since the end of August), although escherichia coli has not come back since I started taking d-mannose.
Thanks for this great and instructive video !
I'm so sorry to learn about your struggles with chronic UTIs. While I'm ecstatic that d-mannose has knocked out E. coli, I really hope that you're able to figure out how to eliminate the other causes of your infections.
I really wish I could be more helpful.
Wishing you the best 💛
Hi thank you for your video. You mentioned that D mannose only works for E-coli, but it worked to me for the last 2 years to prevent from UTIs, but I had an UTI recently and I did test it showed that I had S. aureus, and D-mannose did help as I can feel obviously the symptoms was almost gone but could not be completely healed. Once I started to lower down the dose of D mannose the symptoms came back. Would you probably have any suggestions? Thank you very much!
I also told me doctor about D Mannose. I’m 68. He’s around the same age. He does not do current research and had never heard of it! I hope to switch soon.
Is it also for men? I’m a paraplegic.

Ok if my uti is not being helped by demanose because it’s not a 17:46 wasn’t working for a couple of weeks. now along with what I think is enough water? Maybe I need to drink more? and just lately I’ve included antibiotics into that mix because it appears that the demonose isn’t working? And I’m still getting up to pee every hour and half to four hours.(if I’m lucky) and even with the antibiotic which is nitrofurantoin mono-mcr 100mg once a day. I’ve been on it four days and nothing has changed. I’m hoping it will start to give me some relief in the next day or so? I’ve been to my doc did a urinalysis which I got back in two days and it said I had an infection. I really don’t like to take antibiotics so you know I’m not doing great that is way it made me give into start taking them:( I’m just not getting very much sleep. I’m not drinking alcohol or coffee, also I’ve heard a urinalysis should take about a week to get results back to know if you have UTI. Am I just being impatient? Thank for any help you can enlighten me on? Peace
There is a correlation between mercury toxicity and UTI.
Thank you for saying this because that thought crossed my mind and I have amalgam in my mouth that the ADA continues to say "is totally safe." I think I'm going to get them removed!
Thank you so much for your video. I get several uti’s a year. I thought I was alone. Do your family members also get recurrent uti?
Hi Tori, thank you so much for these super helpful video. I was in the hospital once for 2 weeks because of UTI. And now after 6 months i just got it again. Im on antibiotic prescribed by doctor and is still super worried that it will come back after this treatment. I really hope that after this batch of antibiotic dmannose will help me with UTI. But i have a few questions regarding the usage of dmannose.
1. Does it affect if I use it while using: birth control pill or any other supplements?
2. Do we have to take this religiously for the rest of our life to prevent UTI? If yes, does it have any other side effect since this is a type of sugar?
3. Does it help with BV as well since i read there are some claims about it helps with BV and i’m having BV and is planning to use boric acid suppositories to cure it.
Thank you so much again for such a useful video
I am so, so sorry to hear about you having to go to the hospital due to a UTI. I'm really glad that you caught this most recent one early, and that you're getting the appropriate treatment. I hope that d-mannose will help you after this round of antibiotics, too, but remember that d-mannose is only effective if the bacteria causing your infections is E. coli!
As for your questions:
1. I cannot point to any literature, but I can share my personal experience. I've used d-mannose while on and off of hormonal birth control, and have not noticed any change in efficacy of my birth control or my natural fertility.
2. I've been taking it every day for 3-4 years now I think. I'm not sure if I'll be taking it for the rest of my life, but my alternative was taking antibiotics for the rest of my life, it seemed. As far as side-effects, I have not personally experienced any. But that doesn't mean they don't exist. Every person's body is different, and I know just from reading my comments that d-mannose has given other people headaches, or made them feel light-headed.
3. Fascinating! I haven't heard that it's helpful with BV, and I have not personally used it to treat/prevent BV. I am a big fan of boric acid suppositories, though! If you'd like to learn more about boric acid, you can check out this video: ruclips.net/video/uzfAgvGY7Z0/видео.html
I'm so glad this video was helpful for you! I hope you find your healing, soon 💛
So take during a current uti? I will take the pills until i can get the power in

Some people can be insanely ignorant. UTI’s are not necessarily linked to hygiene. Chronic UTI’s are typically caused by a biofilm that tends to create a coating, making it hard to cure because the biofilm allows the bacteria causing the infection to hide, thus allowing for the infection to return. 😊
But how other people who got uti before don’t have biofilms and why only few people have this problem am dying with this infection I don’t find purpose to live
@@aishwaryareddy5805how are you doing now? Did you find a cure? You have to help you’re body eliminate the bacteria eat healthier. Blueberries juice twice a day/ or unsweetened cranberry juice/ make garlic teas or eat 3 cloves of garlic every day
Good day doctor i am suffering with a stricter problem at the age of 35 years old i try a lot of serge but none work i i have to live with a cater i have been using one since 2007 until now and it is going true my belly can not pass true the penins
Do you only use the dmannose when you a uti or do you use it as a preventative measure as well?
I use it preventatively as well :) I answer all of these questions both in this video and in my FAQs blog post if you want to learn more about my current routine!
D mannose was a godsend for during pregnancy as Antibiotics stopped working. Have only ever tried the powder xx
Can i just open the capsules and dump in water? Do u think its the same? Cause the capsulse arent working
I'll tell everyone about you *MR OBALAR* coming across your RUclips channel was a blessing, I'm free from hpv, victory at last..❤
I will 100% be getting this asap
I hope it is as helpful for you as it has been for me! Let me know if you have any questions, wishing you the best ❤️
Hey... hope you see this. I remember asking you a question about D-Mannose. Is it safe to take D-Mannose and Antibiotic together? I been taking it for over a month now and just got a uti.
I'm so sorry about your infection, did you get it cultured?
I can't give individualized medical advice, but I can share that I have safely taken both d-mannose and antibiotics together without issue. However, if you're at all concerned, I can only recommend you ask a physician or another healthcare provider you trust who knows you and your past medical history 💛
I wish I could be more helpful, and I hope you get to feeling better soon 🤗
Pelvic Empowerment yeah I got it cultured and was put on bactrim I am still taking D-Mannose.
Pelvic Empowerment thanks again for responding
@@Pokerplayer900 of course! I hope you feel better soon!
What’s the difference with pill and powder? You can just open the pills and mix it with water so it absorbs quicker no? Shouldn’t D- Mannose all be the same with all brands?
Today is 2-17-2024. I am going to tell everyone the method I use for UTI. Not an E-Coli UTI. Just a regular UTI. I Hope this helps someone. Go to the grocery store and buy a bunch of fresh parsley. It is sold in “ bunches “. At home rinse the parsley off and put all of it…..stems and all…….into a blender filled with water. Grind it up. Then, pour the green water into a container and throw the ground up parsley remainder away. Keep in your refrigerator and 4 times a day……FOR ONE WEEK ( even if you start feeling fine, do not stop ) drink a cup of the parsley water. Drink it cold, hot, or put some sweetener in…….anything to help you tolerate it. This OUGHT to clear up the majority of UTI’s. It always has mine. Now, as a maintenance, do this maybe twice a year. Typically, I just gulp it down cold in a coffee type mug. Try it, and if you have success, you will learn to buy SEVERAL bunches of parsley at the time. Would REALLY REALLY appreciate hearing back from anyone on this. I started doing this around 40 years ago, and it worked UNTIL I got E-Coli and then I had to be treated. That one is a yucky experience !
Can you please tell.......can I take d mannose at the time or my menses?????
Hey! I posted on your old video but i thought i'd put it here too since it's more relevant.
I just wanted to ask whether you have ever had Hexamethylenetetramine or Methenamine? There's a medicine called Hiprex i buy at pharmacies without a prescription (Australia) that seems to help - just wanted to see if you had any experience with it? I'm now considering trying d-mannose instead as a more natural remedy since the longterm effects of Hiprex aren't clear.
Thanks for much for the video - i suffer the exact symptoms and have found it to be very mentally debilitating and like something is wrong with my body - thanks for bringing all these people together who can understand one another!
Hi! I have heard of Hiprex but only through speaking with others who comment on my videos-I haven’t ever used it myself, unfortunately 😔
I so hear what you’re saying about feeling like something is wrong! I’ve absolutely felt that myself, but the wonderful news is that our brains are plastic! And if we can figure out how to prevent the infections, eventually we can collect enough positive experiences to rewire our brains not to fear certain activities ❤️
I really wish I could be more helpful! Don’t hesitate to reach with any other questions-wishing you health and safety during this uncertain time 🤗
@@PelvicEmpowerment I found these videos after getting a uti from hiprex after 2 years of not having one! Unsure why they didnt work this one time. I took antibiotics but now 1 week later im dealing with a mild flare up and just bought D-mannose - fingers crossed it works for me and I don't have to second round antibiotics! I was wondering have you had any uti's since taking the powder preventively? And how long did it take for you to get over the acute uti with the powder?
Thanks so much again - doing my testing for this current uti so fingers crossed it works!
@@TheGaranceable Yes, fingers-crossed 🤞
I have had two UTIs since taking the powder preventatively -- but both of them happened in January of this year, in Asia, on my honeymoon, when I didn't pack enough d-mannose for the entirety of the trip! I essentially hadn't gotten a UTI in 2.5-3 years since using the powder, packed enough d-mannose for my life not in Asia for the length of the trip (3 months), realized I hadn't packed enough for life in Asia (very wet climate, a lot more exposure to "risky behaviors" there), and tried to half my doses to make the amount of powder I had brought last the whole time. Promptly got two UTIs in a row... so I do think if I had been taking d-mannose the "right" way for my body I would've prevented those. Otherwise, UTI-free since using the powder!
As for your second question, my symptoms went away quickly (within a day), but I continued to use the powder through the lens of treating an infection for 5 days total 😊
Wishing you the best 💛

Hello to everyone. I also have uti for about 4 years. but my disease has been asymptomatic for a very long time. I don't have pain or other symptoms, but e coli bacteria are found every time in my urine test. Anyone else experiencing this situation? I'm waiting for your help.
I'm so sorry to learn that, even though you're asymptomatic (thank goodness!), your tests results show e. coli every time. That must be frustrating. I really hope that someone else who has had a similar experience finds your comment and can help you.
@@PelvicEmpowerment i hope, thank you 🙏🏻
Have u try cranberry juice extract? It works so well for my chronic UTI
I haven't, but I am so glad you found something that works for your body 💕
