Preventative measures reduce recurring urinary tract infections in women

Recurring urinary tract infections (UTIs) affect many women, with a significant risk of reinfection within months of the initial infection. These infections, caused by bacteria like E. coli, can lead to symptoms such as frequent urination, burning sensations, and pelvic pain, often recurring shortly after treatment. Factors like infrequent urination and poor hygiene contribute to their recurrence. Preventative measures include increased fluid intake, regular urination, maintaining proper hygiene, and consuming probiotic-rich foods to combat the spread of bacteria.
