Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

(Update 5 years later: still doing great! Yes, it’s so expensive, but still I always have ellura on hand. Now, I only take it for a day or two if I’m suspicious about an infection coming on. That’s it! It works. Haven’t had a uti in years. Amazing stuff!!!) (Update: Almost one year later, I’m still doing great on Ellura. I only had one infection, I know what caused it, and it healed easily on a regular dose/length of an antibiotic. Huge difference from the previous year with a uti for 6 months straight!! I truly believe this supplement changed my life. Now, I take one a day and two if there was a trigger that day that could possibly cause a uti. If I feel a twinge of a possible infection, I take 2 ellura, d mannose, and drink lots of water, and it goes away. I haven’t had an infection for 8 months! If you read the rest of my review, you can see all the steps I did at first. I cut some of these out over the months as I’ve gotten better. Good luck. It’s a dreadful thing to deal with a uti.) This supplement plus vitamin c changed my life! I had a uti in March that never went away. A few weeks after finishing a round of antibiotics, it'd flare back up again. I went through 6 rounds of antibiotics in 6 months. Many times, my symptoms would only go away a few days while on antibiotics, then I'd have lingering symptoms-- not terrible, but enough to drive me mad, plus the worry of too many antibiotics was always on my mind. My urogynecologist did a cystoscopy, several cultures, and diagnosed it as chronic uti. She recommended ellura and it helped tremendously. Once I also added 1000mg of vitamin c twice a day, I've had relief! I don't write many reviews, but I wanted to share my experience for anyone else who's in the same situation and looking for help. Here's what I did: Ellura 2 a day everyday. I take one in the morning and one at night. I will cut back to one a day once I feel confident the infection is totally gone. Vitamin C 1,000mg 2x a day, but will cut to 500mg 2x a day soon too D mannose before bed daily and throughout the day when symptoms appear. I tried this before ellura. It gave me a lot of symptom relief, but symptoms would come back if I stopped taking it. I still take it in addition to the ellura. Probiotics, made for women. My doctor recommended 50billion cultures or more daily. I rotate through a few different ones for variety of probiotics. Probiotics inserted vaginally, also recommended by my doctor. Sorry, that's tmi, but it'll help faster and better imo than just taking the probiotic by mouth, especially if you've been on antibiotics. Just open the capsule and use the powder, or just use the capsule if it's a gelatin capsule. An enteric coated capsule may not dissolve well. Do this for 2-3 days at bedtime, then 2-3 times a week. This may be overload, but I also sanitized my washer, threw out all my underwear and bought new ones. I wash, sanitize, wash again and double rinse them separate from any other clothes. That's it. Of course, follow all the hygiene advice you hear a million times, but you know isn't enough to fix the problem. Good luck!
