Partner management for non-gonorrheic urethritis, i.e., infected partners, if any, must be located and treated (contacts must be traced for 4 weeks).
Observance of general hygiene measures!
Genital hygiene
Once a day, the genital area should be washed with a pH neutral care product. Washing several times a day with soap, intimate lotion or disinfectant destroys the natural acid mantle of the skin. Pure water dries out the skin, frequent washing irritates the skin.
It is recommended to use disposable washcloths.
Showering is better than bathing (softening the skin).
Tighten underwear only when the skin is absolutely dry.
Underwear should be changed daily and be breathable (cotton materials).
Synthetic materials impermeable to air create an ideal breeding ground for pathogens.
Avoidance of unprotected sexual intercourse
Regular checkups
Regular medical checkups

Once or twice a week fresh sea fish, i.e. fatty marine fish (omega-3 fatty acids) such as salmon, herring, mackerel.
Observance of the following special dietary recommendations:
Diet rich in:
Trace elements (zinc)
Omega-3 fatty acids – alpha-linolenic acid (vegetable oils, green leafy vegetables), eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid (fresh sea fish once or twice a week, i.e. fatty marine fish such as salmon, herring, mackerel).
Probiotic foods (if necessary, dietary supplements with probiotic cultures).
