Why Do Some Women Get UTIs Over and Over Again?

Описание: Dr Amir Khan and Cherry Healey break down everything you need to know about UTIs, cystitis, bladder infections and recurrent urinary tract infections. It’s a deeply personal topic for Cherry, who has lived with chronic UTIs for much of her life. Dr Amir and Cherry talk about the real causes, symptoms and treatments, including when a UTI can become serious and why getting treatment early is so important.

They also talk about the link between sex and UTIs, when an infection can develop into a kidney infection or even sepsis, whether cranberry juice actually works, and what to do if you’re experiencing frequent or recurring infections.

If you’ve ever experienced burning when you pee, the constant urge to wee, bladder pain or recurrent cystitis, Dr Amir explains what might be happening in your body, and when it’s time to seek medical help.
