How to treat cystitis naturally and quickly?

How to treat cystitis naturally? We tell you everything about the causes, symptoms and natural treatments to get rid of it quickly.

4 to 6 million is the number of cystitis cases in France per year! This is a very common infection. In fact, it is estimated that 25 to 50% of women will experience at least one cystitis during their lifetime. This figure is also largely underestimated, because many spontaneously cure their cystitis with a natural treatment. and good hydration.

What is cystitis?


Cystitis, also called urinary infection, is an inflammation of the bladder which, for anatomical reasons, affects women more than men
and directly influences the prevalence of this condition. Indeed, the urethra is much shorter in women than in men, which allows pathogens to colonize the bladder more easily. Many bacteria can cause cystitis, and antibiotic treatments are often favored by doctors.

The causes of cystitis


By precisely identifying the causes, it is surely possible to avoid them… Well in reality, not really! Because even if we can avoid certain risk factors such as the use of spermicides, or poor hygiene, many causes of cystitis concern us all without us being able to really have an influence on them.


Here are the main causes:

  1. Being a woman: as mentioned previously, the female anatomy is more conducive to the occurrence of this condition.

  2. Age: the risk of cystitis is increased in the elderly (less effective emptying of the bladder leading to stagnation of urine, poorer hygiene, etc.).

  3. Sexual intercourse: it encourages the movement of certain bacteria which can subsequently colonize the bladder. A good way to avoid this is to urinate after each intercourse.

  4. Poor hydration and a bladder that is not emptied enough: this creates an environment conducive to the proliferation of bacteria.

  5. Clothes that are too tight and synthetic materials: these are also factors increasing the occurrence of this condition.

  6. Stomach problems: Transit disorder, intestinal dysbiosis or even irritable bowel syndrome can more easily lead to the multiplication of the bacteria responsible for cystitis.

Symptoms of cystitis

Cystitis can be infectious or non-infectious but in both cases the main symptoms are:

  1. Pain and burning sensation in urine
  2. Frequent urge to urinate
  3. Difficulty passing urine
  4. Cloudy, smelly urine
  5. Pain in the pelvis and/or lower back
  6. Fever (in some cases)
  7. Fatigue and general malaise


Treat a 
cystitis with natural treatments


It is advisable to consult a doctor to avoid complications, such as a kidney infection, called pyelonephritis. But there are still effective natural remedies to prevent and relieve cystitis when it sets in.

Restore the microbiota to prevent cystitis

Stomach Intestinal Microbiota Bloating Transit Disorders

The balance of the microbiota, whether intestinal or vaginal, is essential! In our opinion, this is one of the preferred therapeutic approaches in cases of cystitis. To do this, we recommend that you take probiotics to repopulate the flora with good bacteria, especially if you have been prescribed antibiotics (which often happens when you consult your doctor in the event of cystitis). But, it is also wise to consume it for prevention, especially if you are prone to chronic cystitis. Indeed, the vaginal flora plays a major role in slowing down the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria in the urethra.

At DIJO, we created the  Intimate Flora pack bringing together two probiotic cures: The essential probiotics , to act on the intestinal flora and restore the microbial balance, thanks to its 8 strains of bacteria. It is recommended to carry out a two-month treatment to feel the effects, when you feel the need or for example at each change of season. It is also entirely possible to take them continuously. Probiotic vaginal flora helps strengthen the vaginal microbiota, thanks to its three strains specialized in the treatment of gynecological infections. The treatment is also to be taken over two months, in the event of repeated cystitis and/or mycosis, to be repeated with each vaginal or urinary infection.

Relieve cystitis naturally with plants



Cystitis and natural treatment go well together! Many people know the benefits of cranberry for urinary infections, but another herbal solution has proven itself: pilosella! Thanks to its natural antiseptic properties, it reduces bacterial proliferation. You can also find this plant with diuretic effects in our Detox Potion , a concentrate of 5 plants with depurative and draining properties. They also have other benefits such as detoxification of the body, improvement of digestive comfort and skin quality.


The combination of plants and probiotics, to prevent cystitis, is an intelligent attitude since the plants will limit the proliferation of pathogens, while the probiotics will maintain the balance of the intimate microbiota.
