On this May 2022 episode of The Dr. Louise Newson Podcast, Dr. Newson interviews Dr. Rajvinder Khasriya about the link between UTIs and hormones, discussing how UTIs impact women and offering a holistic approach to management.

A urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common bacterial infection affecting the urethra, bladder, or kidneys.

Many people will contract a UTI at some point in their lives, but some suffer from urinary tract infections (UTIs) over and over again.

The people most likely to develop recurrent UTIs are menopausal women, but because research is severely underfunded, there is currently no easy answer as to why this happens.

On this episode of The Dr. Louise Newson Podcast, Dr. Newson and Dr. Rajvinder Khasriya discuss the possible connection between women's hormonal health and UTIs.

Dr. Newson is a general practitioner and menopause specialist. She runs the Newson Health Wellbeing Center in Stratford-Upon-Avon, UK.

Dr. Khasriya is a urogynaecologist who leads the Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms clinic at the NHS Whittington Hospital in North London.
