Recurrent bacterial urinary tract infection responds to bladder ozone irrigation, vaginal insufflations, MAH
#1 · January 19, 2023, 3:37 pm
A woman with recurring UTI (urinary tract infection) tries several courses of antibiotics without success.
15 days after the completion of an antibiotics course the painful and difficult urination (dysuria) comes back. This goes on for 6 months.
She is diagnosed with both E. coli and HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) infections.
She then received ozone therapy in the following manner:
- 3 bladder irrigations with ozonated distilled water, 250 ml at 50 mcg/ml for 15 min
- Weekly vaginal ozone insufflations, 200 ml at 20 mcg/ml
- Ozonated olive oil applied vaginally, twice a day
- 20 MAH, Major Autohemotherapy
Result: Painful urination disappeared after the first bladder irrigation.
Four months after the completion of all ozone treatments, she remains asymptomatic and the HPV and E.coli tests come back negative.
From the research point of view, it’s a pity they gave her the MAH, since it would have been interesting to see if the vaginal insufflations and the bladder irrigation alone would have helped her. What is interesting, is that her story could be also explained through vitamin A toxicity / cholestasis.
Dysuria, painful urination, is a known sign of vitamin A toxicity.
The reason why her symptoms stopped during antibiotic treatment could be because of cholestasis, or stagnant bile. That’s what many antibiotics induce. The liver stops detoxing vitamin A and so the dysuria stops as well. But then the antibiotic induced cholestasis resolves and the dysuria comes back again.
The fact that ozone helped her was possibly because it helped her let go of some vitamin A deposits or stimulated bile flow (which then increased vit A detox).
During MAH, there is always a small amount of blood that remains in the tubing, I estimate around 10 ml. After 20 sessions, this can easily amount to a blood draw of 200 ml.
Blood letting is a remedy for vitamin A poisoning. Is this what caused her recovery? The blood loss thanks to the MAH and not so much any anti-microbial properties of ozone?
But mostly its assumed bile flow stimulating, vitamin A detoxing characteristics? Maybe food for thought …
