I read where one can get moist toilet paper by Scott and Cottonelle etc. I guess these are different than baby wipes? Anyone know of a brand that is unscented and does not have MCI in it? (the latter can cause allergies). TIA.
(I have an UTI - not sure if caused by ABx or sensitivity to toiletpaper or both).

We use Scott Naturals flushable wipes. I think they may be lightly scented though.
What about using something targeted for potty training kids? May be less "harsh". You could try tendercare, unscented natural ones.

No No No, those moist wipes and baby wipes have horrible toxins that will not help you! Plz check out GreenMedInfo(dot)com and search on those moist towelettes (and anything else). You will see that the glycerin and other chemicals are not there for your benefit, but to keep you buying them. I am not affiliated with GreenMedInfo but they have THE LARGEST searchable database on Scientifically proven alternative research.

We use the softest Cottonelle super huge rolls because I spend so much time in the bathroom. Every now and then it is a good idea to wash gently with plain water. Do not wear anything but cotton underwear and remove it at bedtime. I also soak in epson salts water whenever I can get the bathroom to myself.
I think that the yeast infections are the culprit so I try to avoid all sugar, most bread and I drink a ton of diet cranberry juice and herbal teas.
I am concerned about using anything else. When I see the urologist I will ask his advice and then post it.
