In this conversation, Dr. Adam Bonder sits down with Martin Dawson to discuss a different approach to recurrent UTI care, chronic UTI treatment, and the future of bladder health. If you are tired of the cycle of repeated antibiotics, recurrent urinary tract infections, and temporary relief that never seems to last, this discussion explores why that happens and what other options may exist. They talk about hyaluronic acid, bladder instillation therapy, and why more targeted, localized care may play an important role in helping patients with chronic cystitis, recurrent UTI, and persistent bladder symptoms. Martin also shares the story behind Medi-Sell, his work in advancing awareness of urological pharmaceuticals and bladder instillation delivery systems in the UK, and why improving access to non-antibiotic UTI prevention strategies matters for patients who have been overlooked for far too long. In this episode, we cover: • recurrent UTI and chronic UTI management • why repeated antibiotics may not be enough • how hyaluronic acid bladder instillation works • why repairing the bladder lining matters • the role of at-home treatment and patient education • access to better care for female urology and chronic bladder conditions • why UTI prevention needs to go beyond another prescription Learn more about Medi-Sell here: https://medi-sell.co.uk/ Learn more about Clinova here: https://clinova.solutions If this conversation was helpful, please like, comment, and subscribe for more content on recurrent UTI, chronic UTI, bladder pain, bladder instillation therapy, female urology, and UTI prevention. #RecurrentUTI #ChronicUTI #BladderHealth #BladderInstillation #HyaluronicAcid #UTIPrevention #FemaleUrology #ChronicCystitis #WomensHealth #Urology

One often overlooked cause is chemical cystitis, a non-infectious inflammatory condition of the bladder that can feel exactly like a UTI. And YUPPP, this can be incredibly frustrating. https://jasminebonder.substack.com/p/chemical-cystitis?utm_source=youtube

Kidney stones and UTIs get confused all the time — and honestly, your bladder is just as annoyed as you are. Burning when you pee? Urgency like you need a bathroom right now? Lower belly or back pain? That could be a UTI… or a kidney stone throwing a tantrum on its way out. Here’s the plot twist: Stones can scratch and irritate the urinary tract, which can mimic a UTI or actually set one up. So people end up taking antibiotics that don’t fix the real problem—or wonder why the “UTI” keeps coming back. Clues it might be stones: Pain that comes in waves Flank or side pain Blood in the urine Symptoms that don’t fully improve with antibiotics Bottom line: pain doesn’t always mean infection, and infection isn’t always the villain. Sometimes it’s a tiny rock causing big drama. Your body isn’t being mysterious—it’s being specific. You just have to know what questions to ask.

Chronic prostatitis is one of the most misunderstood reasons people feel like they have a UTI… even when tests keep coming back “normal.” Burning with urination Pelvic pressure or heaviness Frequent urge to pee Pain after sitting, exercise, or sex Sound familiar? A lot of people get told “it’s not a UTI” and then… nothing else. Cue the frustration. Here’s what’s wild: Chronic prostatitis doesn’t always mean infection. It can be inflammation, nerve irritation, pelvic floor tension, or all of the above—so antibiotics often don’t touch it. Clues this isn’t a typical UTI: Symptoms drag on for weeks or months Cultures are negative Pain comes and goes Antibiotics help a little… or not at all And no, it’s not “in your head.” The prostate sits right in the middle of everything urinary, so when it’s irritated, the whole system complains. Bottom line: chronic prostatitis is real, common, and treatable—but only if it’s actually recognized. Your body isn’t broken. It just needs a better explanation.

We review what studies show about Lactin-V in reducing BV recurrence, how restoring Lactobacillus crispatus helps crowd out pathogenic bacteria, and why timing matters—especially after antibiotics or antifungal treatments. In this video, we cover: What the clinical studies show about Lactin-V When Lactin-V is most effective (and when it’s not) How it’s typically used after antibiotics Differences between vaginal vs oral probiotics Expectations: how long it can take to see results Why microbiome repair is a long-term strategy, not a quick fix If you’ve tried “everything” and still deal with recurrent BV, UTIs, or chronic vaginal symptoms, this video explains how Lactin-V may play a role in breaking the cycle—safely and thoughtfully. 🔔 Subscribe for more evidence-based education on recurrent infections, bladder symptoms, and microbiome-focused care.

If you’ve ever had burning, urgency, or frequency with a negative urine culture, you’re not alone. One overlooked factor that can cause classic UTI-like symptoms is urine pH. https://jasminebonder.substack.com/p/urine-ph-why-it-matters-and-how-it?utm_source=youtube

Aerobic vaginitis is one of the most missed reasons people think they have a UTI or recurring BV—and it’s frustrating when no one names it. Burning or stinging (especially with urination) Pelvic discomfort or pressure Redness, irritation, or soreness Discharge that just feels… off Symptoms that flare after antibiotics Here’s the twist: Aerobic vaginitis isn’t caused by the usual BV bacteria. It happens when protective lactobacillus drops and more aggressive bacteria move in, triggering inflammation. That inflammation can irritate the bladder and urethra—so it feels urinary, even when urine tests look fine. Why it gets misdiagnosed: Urine cultures are negative BV treatments don’t help (or make it worse) Symptoms linger or keep coming back Antibiotics temporarily calm things… then symptoms return This isn’t poor hygiene. It’s not imagined. And it’s not the same as BV or a yeast infection. Bottom line: when the vaginal microbiome shifts, everything nearby feels it. Treating the wrong thing just keeps the cycle going. Your body is being specific—even when the diagnosis isn’t. Like, subscribe, and welcome back to Urinary Tract Truths 💧

Fluoroquinolones have long been a familiar name in UTI treatment. For years, they were prescribed almost reflexively for urinary infections because they are broad-spectrum, penetrate tissues well. https://jasminebonder.substack.com/p/fluoroquinolones-and-utis?utm_source=youtube
