If the man has poor technique and rubs his penis against the external urethral orifice, one sexual encounter can cause cystitis. If on the other hand the man has good technique and presses against the woman's perineum (press down rather than up), and avoids any contact with the urethral orifice, then the woman will not develop cystitis, and sex will be much more pleasurable for her as well. In his heyday my hubby and I could and did have frequent marathons such as 9 episodes of vaginal intercourse in 12 hours, without me experiencing any urethral irritation at all. In case you're wondering, my husband's penis size is right on the mean for Caucasian men. However; penis size isn't the issue: if the man is competent at sexual intercourse, the urethral orifice should not be rubbed at all during sex. <br /><br />I really, REALLY hope you are not really a doctor, if you believe that frequency of intercourse, rather than technique, is the culprit in cystitis.

We actually examine the patient, do necessary diagnostics (perhaps a urinalysis, which I have not been taught to do over the phone), and then treat as needed. I can't speak for the official Dr Grumpy, but these responses exemplify why I have become an often grumpy doctor.

Opening was 10 a.m., but we were supposed to be in by nine, and some of us would start work earlier than that.<br /><br />Every time someone new was hired, we had to explain that you don't call (808) numbers until noon or so.
