Can red wine cause urinary or bladder infections ?

when i have a few glasses of red wine I sometimes times get bladder infections several days later. Coinicidence?

No, it can't cause one. But alcohol is a bladder irritant. So the red wine might make you more susceptible to get an infection from bacteria. If you're going to drink red wine, just make sure you drink a lot of cranberry juice afterwards.

doubtful but you could be allergic to somthing in the wine

It cannot because, doctors can prescribe it as a medicine.

Sorry, I don't think there's a connection. Sex can give you urinary tract infections-- to avoid getting them just be sure to pee after having sex (and be sure to empty your bladder completely).

Maybe you have the wine, have sex, then get the infections! There's the connection.
