Recurring UTI’s

I have suffered with UTI infections for the last 3 years. I was finally awarded a referral by my primary physician to see a Urologist Today I went for a cystoscopy with my urologist he performed the procedure in the office and with the use of a flexible scope instead of a rigid scope the procedure took about 10 minutes. I felt some bloating during the procedure but he found some polyps that developed and removed them and explained to me that this was why my UTI’s have been recurring and said I should have no problems but should return in 6 months for a recheck. I feel a strong sense of relief knowing what the problem is and the polyps were cause from the recurring bacteria from the UTI’s. I wish I had done this long ago and am very happy to report that I’m feeling great!
