Recurrent UTIs in Women: Causes, Prevention & Treatment Options
About this episode
If you've had more than two urinary tract infections in six months, you are not alone — and you are not out of options. Recurrent UTIs are one of the most common and most frustrating health issues women face, and the connection to sexual activity is one that doesn't get nearly enough attention. In this episode, Dr. Stephanie Zwonitzer, DNP, breaks down everything you need to know about recurrent UTIs: why they keep coming back, what your risk factors actually are, and what prevention and treatment strategies actually work. Topics covered: what makes a UTI recurrent and why some women are more prone than others, the link between sexual activity and UTI development, hormonal changes including menopause and how they increase UTI risk, the role of the microbiome in urinary tract health, prevention strategies beyond just drinking more water, antibiotic options versus non-antibiotic approaches to treatment, and when to see a specialist and what to ask for.
