My first question to you would be what direction are you wiping? DO NOT wipe back to front....front to back only. You're urinary tract, bladder, and kidneys are a sterile environment, if you introduce bacteria into that environment, you have an infection. I don't know how old you are, but if you're sexually active, soon after you're done, go urinate, will help flush unwanted "stuff" from your urinary tract. You can also drink cranberry juice to help stave off a urinary tract infection. Hope this helps.
