Fan of the ladies
Cystitis is most often overtaken by the fair sex - this ailment in women is in second place after respiratory diseases. It is understandable: the short and wide (wider than in men) urethra is located not far from the vagina and anus. This allows bacteria to move freely. Menstrual blood is also an excellent medium for the onset of infection. Especially if you neglect the rules of hygiene and prevention of this ailment. In addition, during pregnancy, the tone of the urinary organs decreases, as a result of which the bladder is not completely emptied, contributing to the development of infection.

3. Boil cabbage in the milk, put in a bucket and sit over the steam.

Six tablespoons of herbs pour a liter of boiling water and warm in a water bath for 15 minutes. Let the broth brew for half an hour, strain and add to the bath, where the water is 37 - 38 degrees. Sit there for 10 minutes.
