Frequent UTIs in women are a common health issue that can cause significant discomfort and inconvenience. Understanding the root causes and exploring natural solutions like probiotics can help in preventing recurrent infections and promoting urinary health.
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) may hold the copyright on the saying “misery loves company”—they bring both in abundance! According to the National Library of Medicine UTIs are the second most common type of infection in humans.
They can be uncomfortable, painful, and—if left untreated—can spread to the kidney, leading to serious health issues.
And for women, the above-mentioned misery is compounded by two facts:
- Women are at least four times as likely to be infected than men
- 27% of women have a UTI recurrence within six months of their first infection.
Why is this? One reason is that women have shorter urethras than men, so pathogens don't have as far to travel to reach the bladder.
Another factor: antibiotics—the most common method of treating UTIs—cause an imbalance of microorganisms in our bodies, leading to recurrent urinary tract infections (RUTI).
Understanding the Urinary Microbiome
The urinary tract has long been assumed to be a sterile environment. But evidence shows it hosts a dynamic ecosystem of microbes, which when balanced, plays a key role in maintaining urinary health.
When the balance of the urinary microbiome is disrupted, however, health issues can arise, primarily UTIs and RUTIs.
Which brings us back to antibiotics. While they kill the bad bacteria in the bladder and urinary tract, they kill good bacteria as well.
They can also promote the growth of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, making RUTIs all the more likely.
How to Prevent Frequent UTIs in Women…With an Ounce of Prevention…
A balanced microbiome is key to maintaining the health of your urinary tract and protecting against UTIs, yeast infections, and other vaginal issues.
That’s why urologists and other general practitioners are now recommending probiotic supplements as a preventative measure to regulate the urinary microbiome. But what are the best probiotics for optimal urinary tract health?
