"There is a substantial gap between the viewpoint of urologists and the rest of society regarding UTIs 'Urinary Tract Infections]. Urologists spend little time and effort thinking about UTIs. In contrast, UTIs are a major issue for many women.

There is substantial concern about "natural compounds" and probiotics* that allow women to take charge of their health care. It is easy to understand this concern because UTIs are common, costly, and cause considerable morbidity."
