Prevention\nThe following are a list of things that can be done to avoid a urinary tract infection. As many people, especially women, experience recurrent infections some commonly recommended preventative measures are\n\nHaving adequate fluid intake, especially water. \nNot resisting the urge to urinate. \nTaking showers, not baths, or urinating soon after taking a bath. \nPracticing good hygiene, including wiping from the front to the back to avoid contamination of the urinary tract by faecal pathogens. \nCleaning genital areas prior to and after sexual intercourse. \nFor sexually active women, and to a lesser extent men, urinating within 15 minutes of sexual intercourse to allow the flow of urine to expel the bacteria before specialized extensions anchor the bacteria to the walls of the urethra. \nIt has been advocated by some, that cranberry-juice would decrease the incidence of UTI, by generating some metabolite inhibiting the adherence of certain pathogens (eg. E. coli) to the epithelium of the urinary bladder.

Sounds unpleasant Ouch!\n\nIntermittent Self Catheterisation:\nThis is where you as the patient will insert a catheter (tube) into your bladder to empty it. This is done at regular intervals to ensure there is not a stagnant volume of urine, which can give rise to infections. Our continence advisors can teach this technique, and suggest ways to make it as easy as possible. They also can help arrange to put you in contact with suppliers of the most suitable catheters for your convenience.\n\nThe procedure is not too uncomfortable, however many women do complain that although it is easy to insert the catheter, removal is painful and that the catheter gets ‘stuck’ when attempting to withdraw it.

Some people get extremely nervous when they have to produce urine to others,  as result have difficulty in urinating.   This is what they call a shy bladder, but by no means is it a fact.   So you may be given an opportunity to try for awhile longer, or you may have to go to jail.   Only your probation officer can help you with this one.   But I have did urine screens for over 20 years and every one can give it up when necessary.  Judging from your situation,  I would say that it is necessary.   When my people have had a problem I let them hit the water , because no bladder is so shy that it won't release the water when it has had enough. Right now all I see is that you get nervous and have not been able to give a sample.   Hit the water, as you don't want to continue wondering if you may go to jail every time you meet with your Probation Officer.

Not a problem at all. In fact, I prefer to sit down to urinate. It has become a habit and I do this all the time. It feels "weird" not to sit down.

drink cranberry juice daily.  have the doc run a culture on your urine to make sure the bacteria is sensitive to the med.  make sure you are cleaning correctly after you use the bathroom and have sex.

Simple answer: YES.  I know of a restaurant where there are urinals in the girls bathroom.  It's a surprise for them to see one as they walk in, of course, but then a few actually use them.  It's faster than waiting in line!

Find an accountability partner -- a spouse or a good friend that's around you a lot.  Make sure that person calls attention to you every time to swear.  You're probably swearing more than you think you are.\n\nCome up with some sort of "fine" for every offense; perhaps a quarter or a dollar that will eventually go to your favorite charity.  The combination of a partner and some "skin" in the game should give you the proper incentive to rid yourself of the habit.

I've used a men's bathroom before without knowing it because it had no urinals. It was one of those single room, just a lock on the door. It was at a gas station and the lock didn't work. 2 guys walked in on me peeing! So embarrassing!

I agree with others about drinking cranberry juice.\n\nIn addition, talk with your doctor about what might be triggering your infections.  Sometimes there are certain behaviors that create the proper conditions for infection.  \n\nNamely, (and sorry to get graphic here--stop reading if you don't want graphic info) when you wipe after defecating, you need to wipe from front to back, not back to front.  Also, trying urinating after having inter*course to wash any germs that might have traveled to your urethra.

use the bathrooms in the strip joints

Try Kegels.  These are exercises that strengthen the pelvic muscles.  They're the same muscles that you use when you "squeeze" to stop the flow of your urine.  Kegels can be done any time.

Urinate in the punch then go home..\nRevenge is sweet

Whenever you feel it is "dirty," without this activity becoming obsessive.\n\nFor most people, a daily shower suffices.

The really really first thing that I do when I go inside a public rest room is to glance at my reflection in the mirror before I look at the queue for the stalls. When I get into the stall, I check for cleanliness first, then toilet paper second.  If everything is OK, I proceed inside but before anything else, I check the lock. If that's OK as well, then BINGO!! I go and do my business.
