Occasionally, some women are born with only one tube. However, you may still be able to get pregnant with one tube and one ovary.
Treatment for a UTI should be designed for each patient individually and is usually based on the patient's underlying medical conditions, what pathogen(s) are causing the infection and the susceptibility of the pathogen(s) to treatments.
If your fallopian tubes are completely blocked, an egg cannot travel through them to your womb. Your body absorbs the released egg.
A bladder infection may cause pelvic pain, increased urge to urinate, pain with urination and blood in the urine, sometimes fever and nausea can also be seen.
Bananas and other fiber-rich foods are indeed good for preventing urinary tract infections. They aid proper bowel movement, which helps keep pressure off of the urinary tract. So urine flow is unobstructed, ensuring that bacteria build-up does not happen.
