A member asked:
Can gall stones be my reason for reoccurring uti's?
8 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: Gallstones have no relationship whatsoever to the urinary tract. It is possible to get kidney stones or bladder stones, however, which can contribute to the formation of UTIs. If you have recurrent UTIs, it is wise to be evaluated by your doctor, who may refer you to a urologist if you are found to have stones in the urinary tract. Good luck.

No: Gallstones do not cause UTI. Dehydration, washing not enough or not the correct way. Not washing after sex. And other causes can add to occurrence of UTI.
