Menopause: Menopause naturally increases your risk of recurrent UTI. The pH of vagina changes and you lose your health bacteria which helps protect you. Preventative options treat thinning of vagina ( see dr for options), fermented foods/probiotics, cranberry juice or supplements, d-mannose supplements.
