As a new year approaches, we're counting down our most popular articles in 2024! Coming in at #5, we explore why urinary tract infections (UTIs) recur, and how scientists are working to develop treatments that keep them from coming back—for good. asm.org/Articles/2024/…

I am begging people to understand that almost every test on the planet has something called "false positives," which means a risk that a result of the test is WRONG. A WRONG result can lead to necessary fear, worry, and at worst, unnecessary INVASIVE procedures or even…

Fun fact that I love sharing: If you’re getting UTI’s immediately after sex (less than 48 hours) it’s mostly not your bladder. There are several other things that can mimic UTI symptoms and many stem from the vulva/pelvic floor.

So sorry, that must hurt a lot. Is it possible he has UTI? - Is it sudden? 30yrs ago a lady I was working with who was on ward for sudden onset dementia had test & had UTI, was discharged to ordinary elderly care for antibiotics, made full recovery.

Germ theory took a shockingly long time to be accepted! The entire medical establishment was against it for centuries. Von Leeuwenhoek's 1677 ‘letter on the protozoa’ was verified by The Royal Society. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
