I’m on the 6/10th day of my UTI treatment and don’t have any symptoms although for reference, my pus count came as 10-12/hpf yesterday.
I am contemplating whether it’s a good idea to have sex tomorrow or not. I’ve been heavy on drinking plenty of water and peeing regularly and I’m always one to make sure to be clean and empty the bladder after sex right away.
Help me decide please.

Probably not the best idea in the world. Sex often causes UTIs from the bacteria that gets pushed into the urethra. I can’t imagine pushing more bacteria into the urethra while treating a current infection would be a good idea
Probably best to wait the extra couple of days to be safe
I’ve jumped the gun on this before and it was both uncomfortable during and also made the symptoms come back a bit after, I’m guessing because of the irritation. You should probably wait a little longer.
