Help docs, is having constant uti's a sign of something more serious?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Chronic UTI: UTIs in women are very common because of the proximity of the vagina, urethral opening, and the anus. 80% of UTIs in women are caused by normal bacteria that live in the GI tract. There are many causes for bacteria entering into the bladder including intercourse, changes in the vaginal environment, stones or masses, or structural problems of the bladder, urethra, or vaginal supports.
